9.8% abv



This is where dark beer and red wine collide! Conditioned on Dornfelder, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc grapes from Fielding Estates and Therianthropy Wine, Nowhere Imperial Stout is deliciously imbued with flavours of fresh berry, plum and grape jam backed up by a hint of chocolate and gentle roast, reminiscent of a Beaujolais wine. Enjoy!

Forever Young – a timeless hazy Pale Ale that embodies the spirit of being young at heart – is a perfect pour, brewed with hops selected for their vibrance and pop!

Young Rival

IPA

   

6.0% abv



Young Rival is our flagship IPA. Using a blend El Dorado and Mosaic hops, we focused on creating a juicy and tropical IPA with very limited bitterness, and a simple malt bill that lets the hops shine.

Chanan

White IPA with Orange Peel & Indian Coriander

   

5.3% abv



Chanan is a hybrid of three styles as it is hopped like an IPA, uses orange peel and coriander like a Belgian wit, and is fermented with our house saison yeast. Chanan is full of bright citrus aromas and flavours and drinks dry, making for an approachable, but complex, refreshing sip every time.
