On Saturday 5/8 at noon we'll have two Double IPAs in cans available for purchase: Cannon Call Mosaic for the first time ever, and Deep Cut for the last time (maybe not ever, but for a long time)
Cannon Call Mosaic is a variation of our gold medal winning Double IPA that features our hand selected Mosaic hops to add melon, berry, and dank earthy flavors to the tropical, white grape and orange flavors already present in the base beer. $15.99+tax+deposit / 16oz 4-pack
Deep Cut is our other gold medal winning Double IPA that has been brewed many times in the last four years, but this will be the last time for a while. It's layered with citrus, tropical punch, and wild berry flavor, with moderate bitterness and a dry finish. $14.99+tax+deposit / 16oz 4-pack
Both will be available on draft at our tap room on Saturday 5/8 and available for pre-order on Friday 5/7 at 8pm via:

Join us on Saturday 4/17 at noon for the release of one new beer: Lock IPA #12: Spray, and the re-release of two of our most requested classics: Double Dry-Hopped Hayburner and Lock IPA #1: Packet.
These are our first labeled cans and we think they look great!
Lock IPA #12: Spray. The first person to solo circumnavigate the earth by boat was a man named Joshua Slocum, who sailed with a rebuilt oyster boat he called The Spray. While he didn't sail the Spray on the Erie Canal during this voyage, he did display it at the Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo in 1901. In 1909, the Spray was lost at sea, but its legacy lived on. This IPA was brewed using a solo hop, Strata, and is unique in possessing exotic flavors of pineapple, lychee, and ripe pear, along with a slightly dry body and balanced bitterness. 6.3% ABV.
DDH Hayburner IPA. This Double Dry-Hopped version of our flagship American IPA features even more bold citrus, stone fruit, and dank hop flavor and aroma for a more intense hop experience; yet, this beer remains as drinkable as the original. Double dry-hopped with Falconers Flight, Galaxy and Mosaic hops. 7.2% ABV.
Lock IPA #1: Packet is named after the boats that transported early passengers on the Erie Canal. The beer is made with Galaxy, Mosaic, and Pacific Jade hops, resulting in a juicy, sticky hop bomb with tempered bitterness and tropical and lightly floral hop flavors abound. 7.2% ABV.
All beers $14.99 per 4-pack. Available for pre-sale and pickup on Saturday 4/17!
