Pub Light
British Pub Ale 4.6% ABV 28 IBU 5 SRM $8/32oz growler fill
When you walk into a German Bier Stube you say ”Ein Bier Bitte” and you will probably get a Munich Helles Style light lager. If you walk into a British Pub you would say “A pint of Bitter please” And then a short time later you would say it again. . . and again. . .This is the kind of simple, easy drinking malty thirst-quencher and tongue loosener that builds Empires in corner pubs and inspiresBritish accents all over the world! Don’t worry! We know you’re on your way. We’ll leave the “Pub Light” on for you!
Big Ben Extra Special Bitter (British pale ale) 6.4% ABV 35 IBU 15 SRM $9/32oz growler fill
A great British Bitter is one of the gold standards that beers around the world are gauged. Of course “Bitter” doesn’t really mean bitter. This is a robust, complex yet quaffable pale ale that is so Brilliantly British, you’ll want to set your clock back to "beer thirty" just so you can enjoy one more!
Murphy’s Red Friday
Whiskey Barrel Aged Maple Irish Red 7.4% ABV 24 IBU 15 SRM $10/32oz growler fill
T’ Luck o’ t’ Irish can often drive even less star-crossed folk than poor Murphy t’ drink! When t’ numbers jus’ don’ add up at t’ end of t’ week, and Saint Paddy’s not answerin’ yer heart-felt prayers, bless yer soul, AleMan is ‘der fer ya wit’ ‘dis new take on an old fashioned, sorrow-drowning Irish Red. A touch of our own maple syrup sweetens t’s pot o’ red gold t’ make t’ end o’ life’s worst weeks feel like there’s nothin’ so bad that it couldn’t be worse! (read t’s wit’ yer best Irish Brogue, Begorrah!) And what could not be worse than spending a couple months inside a whiskey barrel (the beer I mean!)
Enlightened Peasant Bavarian Farmhouse Ale 7.2% 24 IBU 5 SRM $9/32oz growler fill
A little known, old Bavarian peasant beer, this DampfBier is distinguished by a unique fermentation of a barley beer using a traditional Southern German wheat beer yeast. A refreshing and delightfully complex ale brings the pallet on a journey deep into the mysterious and ancient Black Forest of fairy tale fame. Neighborhood Brewing Co’s own Brew-Wizard Joe Berwanger offered up some great tips to help make my version of his ground breaking “Boss Flamingo” style beer even more intriguing!
Old Darn Bard British Brown Ale 4.5% ABV 24 IBU 21 SRM $8/32oz growler fil
Telli’n stories and spinnin’ a joke. Weaving rhymes with honest folk. Dusty bow sawin’ a chune, by the light of smiles dancing under the full moon. The Old Darn Bard with his tomes of Bull, keeps hearts and glasses ever full!
Happy 90thbirthday Dudley Laufman!
Whether in the din of a smoky English pub or at the next floor bouncin’ kitchen junket,Old Darn Bard goes down as easy as the conversation and as smooth as horse hair on a fiddle string!

A special Memorial tribute to those who have given all, and to their friends and family.

Aged for a month in a Cold Garden Spirits BourbonBarrel (https://www.coldgardenspirits.com) adds sublime complexity!
