On Tap:
Stone IPA
An "India Pale Ale" by definition is highly hopped and high in alcohol - you'll find our Stone India Pale Ale to be true to style with a huge hop aroma, flavor and bitterness throughout. If you're a hop-head like us, then you'll love our Stone India Pale Ale! Medium malt character with a heavy dose of over the top hops! Generous "dry hopping" gives this beer its abundant hop aroma and crisp hop flavor. ABV 7.9%
Brasserie de Silenrieux Noel De Silenrieux
Special beer brewed for Christmas. This brewed beer with high fermentation is fermented in the keg. It is made up of malted barley, candy sugar, and spices. It is dark brown in color and 9% ABV.
Brasserie de Silly Scotch de Silly
It offers a finely wooded nose hinting at hazelnut, and is therefore distinct from traditional British scotches. It has a more rounded taste letting a discreetly full-bodied bitterness come to the fore, and will naturally seduce you. 7.5% ABV
Avery Joe's Premium American Pilsner
Experience a contemporary rendition of a classic style. Hopped with purpose, Joe’s is beautifully bitter and dry with an abundance of floral, noble german hops. Uber sessionable. Utterly American. This Is Premium American Pilsner. ABV 4.7%
New Belgium Belgo IPA
When we set out to brew, we use imagination and salvation to guide us- not necessarily style guidelines. It’s the Belgian way. So, Ameri-Belgo and IPA both being styles, the branding begged for New Belgium whimsy to liven things up. Hmmm… Belgo sounds like a Belgian disco. Hops like to party. Next thing you know, we bust out a disco-ball and brewers started groovin’. Hops started hoppin’. Add in an authentic Trappist yeast strain and the place brewed into a frenzy of citrus hoppy folly. 7% ABV
New Belgium Biere De Mars
Celestial pleasure…earthy delight. With earthy tones of ripe mango and lemon verbena, this bottle-conditioned ale reflects the hearty character of the southern Belgian and northern French country sides. Brewed with barley, oats and wheat malt, Biere de Mars’ celestial orange hue inspired the planetary play on words. Brettanomyces, a wild yeast strain added for bottle-conditioning, creates a refreshingly sour flash across the palate and dry finish. Lemon peel coupled with the lemon verbena imparts fruitlike character and citrusy finish. 6.2% ABV
New Belgium Cocoa Mole
Say Hola to a spiced up ale full of cocoa and ancho, guajillo, chipotle peppers. But don’t fear the heat, because plenty of caramel and chocolate malts bring a smooth, complex flavor to our Cocoa Molé. Scents of cinnamon when poured will have you saying, “¡Olé for molé!” 9% ABV
New Belgium Fall Wild Ale
Fall Wild Ale, our mahogany-hued autumn ale spiced with schisandra, opens with the floral, earthy notes of fall itself. Schisandra berries, known as “five flavor fruit,” possesses all five flavors: salty, sweet, sour, spicy and bitter. This malt-forward dubbel ale is fermented with a Trappist yeast and finishes dry and slightly sour with a touch of bretta. 8.5% ABV
New Belgium Prickly Passion Saison
Prickly pear and passion fruit mingle together for New Belgium’s return to farmhouse ales. Prickly Passion Saison is truly a beer for Belgian inspiration. The combination of passion fruit and prickly pear juices with the tropical esters of a traditionally earthy Saison yeast create a wonderfully broad and reaching mango-like character. Ostentatiously amber, this Prickly Passion Saison is sure to provoke the palate with a passionate prick, turn that bottle over and take a sip. 8.5% ABV
New Belgium Trippel
Our Trippel Belgian Style Ale opens with a bold hop profile and then slowly releases the fruity esters implied by our Belgian yeast strain. Remarkably smooth and complex – especially for a beer of 7.8% alcohol. A trace of coriander lends a pleasant spiciness to this bottle-conditioned golden ale. 7.8% ABV
New Belgium Dig Pale Ale (2012 Spring Seasonal)
Unearth your bottle-opener because this Pale Ale is something you can Dig. Nelson Sauvin provides a burst of passion fruit, mango and peach. Sorachi Ace hops are next in line with fresh Spring zing with incredible lemon aroma. American favorites, Cascade and Centennial with their citrus and floral notes round out this crisp, clean Pale Ale. A highly drinkable ale with distinctly unique combination of hops. Plant one in your hand. 5.6% ABV
New Belgium 1554 Enlightened Black Ale
Born of a flood and centuries-old Belgian text, 1554 Enlightened Black Ale uses a light lager yeast strain and dark chocolaty malts to redefine what dark beer can be. In 1997, a Fort Collins flood destroyed the original recipe our researcher, Phil Benstein, found in the library. So Phil and brewmaster, Peter Bouckaert, traveled to Belgium to retrieve this unique style lost to the ages. Their first challenge was deciphering antiquated script and outdated units of measurement, but trial and error (and many months of in-house sampling) culminated in 1554, a highly quaffable dark beer with a moderate body and mouthfeel. . With 1554 our staff hoped to create a beer similar to what folks enjoyed five hundred years ago without ignoring five hundred years of technological innovation. ‘just when you thought American craft brewers had tried all classical styles, someone plucks something new out of an old recipe book.’ – greg kitsock, American brewery magazine. 5.6% ABV
New Belgium Fat Tire Amber Ale (FT & Friends)
Like the ageless delight of pedaling a bicycle, Fat Tire Amber Ale’s appeal is in its feat of balance: Toasty malt flavors (sorta like biscuits just pulled from the oven) coasting in equilibrium with crisp hoppiness. Delicious stability - in the world of sometimes-precarious beer flavors –is perhaps what prompted one consumer who wrote us to say, “this beer just makes you smile.” Fat Tire’s depth of flavor, achieved with neither a disproportionate sway toward hops or malts, tandems well with a full spectrum of today’s engaging cuisines. Salmon, dry-aged cheeses, roasted chilies, omelets at midnight, sweet potato French fries and just about anything with grill marks or garlic are just a few of the edibles we like to partner up with our Amber Ale. Fat Tire is so named for the bike trip Jeff took through Belgium that greatly inspired his homebrewing efforts. 5.2% ABV
New Belgium Sunshine Wheat
SUNSHINE WHEAT is a great beer for trouncing thirst. Yet, it has a depth of character that inspires a quiet moment’s reflection. Sunshine Wheat swirls in the mouth with ripples of coriander and orange peel tartness, settling nicely into a tranquil sea of apple and honey tones. A filtered wheat beer, Sunshine offers a crisp, refreshing alternative to heavier-bodied Hefeweizens. 4.8% ABV
Dunkel Weiss
Cat-burglar-smooth and just as fond of the dark, Dunkel Weiss sneaks together wheat and barley malts with a pinch of black pepper. Nab one before it gives you the slip! 9% ABV
Imperial Berlinerweiss
Based on the centuries-old German style of Berliner Weiss, this Imperial version opens with lemon, citrus and delicate floral tones. The beer is naturally sour from lactic fermentation and a dash of Brettanomyces. Imperial Berliner Weiss pours slightly hazy with a pleasantly dry finish. 7% ABV
10/10/10
When New Belgium brewmaster, Peter Bouckaert, decided to leave old Belgium for New Belgium, he had to shelve his preference for the metric system and embrace the English standard in the US. Liters and hectoliters, divisible by ten, were replaced with gallons, barrels and “case equivalents”. Bouckaert realized that October 10th, 2010 represented an opportunity to celebrate his beloved metric system with a beer conceived, brewed and fermented by the Tens. The result is 10.10.10, a beer made from 10 ingredients on 10.10.10 at 10:10 in the am, then fermented in Fermentation Vessel # 10 for 10 days resulting in an abv of 10 %.
“I realized I had to do something special for this metric year and brewing a beer is the easiest way for me to celebrate,” Boucakert said. “I also wanted this to be a simple beer – as simple as the metric system itself.”
10.10.10’s 10 ingredients include a lager yeast, Polish noble hops, multiple malts, black pepper and grains of paradise. Though relatively high in alcohol at 10% abv, the beer finishes quite dry with a fruity nose from spicing. 10% ABV
New Belgium Mothership Wit
Mothership Wit Organic Wheat Beer elevates the zesty Wit or White beers of Belgium. New Belgium's far-flung Beer Rangers affectionately refer to our Fort Collins brewery as the Mothership, a name that conjures images of earth shot from space and the interconnectivity of it all. Mothership Wit is brewed with wheat and barley malt, as well as coriander and orange peel spicing resulting in a balance of citrus and sour flavors held in suspension by a bright burst of carbonation. ABV 4.8%
Dogfish Head Chateau Jiahu
Let's travel back in time again for another Dogfish Head Ancient Ale (Midas Touch was our first foray and Theobroma our most recent), this time 9000 years! Preserved pottery jars found in the Neolithic villiage of Jiahu, in Henan province,Northern China, has revealed that a mixed fermented beverage of rice, honey and fruit was being produced that long ago - right around the same time that barley beer and grape wine were beginning to be made in the Middle East! Fast forward to 2005.... Molecular Archeologist Dr. Patrick McGovern of the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology calls on Dogfish Head to re-create their second ancient beverage and Chateau Jiahu is born. In keeping with historic eviden ABVce, Dogfish brewers use brown rice syrup, Orange Blossom honey, Muscat grape, barley malt, and hawthorn berry.The wort is fermented for about a month with Sake yeast until the beer is ready for packaging. 10% ABV
Stone La Citrueille Celeste de Citracado
Sure, we’re a bunch of Arrogant Bastards, but we humbly admit that we were inspired to start brewing by other fantastic breweries and homebrewers. There are a whole lot of fellow craft brewers who we respect and admire, and who we’ve wanted to collaborate with. So why just dream about it? Starting in 2008, we released a new series of collaboration beers. The goal was to get three brewers from three different breweries to put their heads together and have some fun with no regard for boundaries. No restrictions on fitting a beer into a lineup, using familiar ingredients, conforming to preconceived beer styles, using tested procedures in the brewing process or even affordability. Each of these beers is the result of three brewers coming together and doing what they love. Therefore, many of our collaborations include ridiculous amounts of decadent ingredients without regard for shelf price. And because our collaborations are usually only brewed once, they can be rather difficult to find, and once they run out—they run out. Consider yourself warned.
If you're lucky enough to get your hands on these liquid tributes to the spirit of camaraderie, you’ll agree that the end result is worth it. 5�V
Dogfish Head Palo Santo Marron
An unfiltered, unfettered, unprecedented brown ale aged in handmade wooden brewing vessels. The caramel and vanilla complexity unique to this beer comes from the exotic Paraguayan Palo Santo wood from which these tanks were crafted. Palo Santo means "holy tree" and it's wood has been used in South American wine-making communities.
This beer is a 12% abv, highly roasty, and malty brown ale aged on the Palo Santo wood. It was a huge hit at our Rehoboth Beach brewpub when first released in November of 2006, Palo went into full production at the end of 2007.
At 10,000 gallons, our Palo Tank is the largest wooden brewing vessel built in America since before Prohibition (and we have two same-sized Oak tanks right next to it). 12% ABV
Left Hand Biere de Garde (Pro-Am)Biere de Garde (Pro-Am Winner):
Caramel, fruit, and heat, oh my! The winner of this year’s Pro-Am home brewing competition is a round, rich, sweet sipper- a beautiful interpretation of the classic Farmhouse style, and one we are proud to have on draft for as long as it lasts.
Up Next:
Avery Ellies Brown
This beautiful, deep russet brew has the sweet and somewhat nutty character of Adam Avery's late (1992-2002) Chocolate Lab, for which it is named. Crystal and chocolate malts give this beer a brown sugar maltiness with hints of vanilla and nuts, while subtle hopping gives it an overall drinkability that's second to none, just like Ellie! ABV 5.5%
Asher Green Lantern Organic Kolsch
Green Lantern Kolsch is a lighter bodied golden ale. This beer is balanced malty sweetness and a kiss of hops. A great session beer! Brewed with the finest organic malted barley and organic hops. Cheers! 4.8%ABV
Victory Prima Pils
Heaps of hops give this pale lager a bracing, herbal bite over layers of soft and smooth malt flavor. This refreshing combination of tastes makes Prima a classy quencher in the tradition of the great pilsners of Europe. ABV 5.3%
brouwerij Van Steenberge Monk’s Cafe
We blend young and old beers to make this mildy tart sour ale. Light bodied with a lactic/sour nose and a bit of sweet and sour in the finish. Very refreshing! ABV 5.5%
Brouwerij Liefmans (Oudenaarde, Belgium) Oud Bruin
A lightly acidic Flemish brown ale. After fermentation in open vessels, the beer matures 4 to 8 months. 5% ABV
Brouwerij Bavik Petrus Winter
Caramel-red beer of high fermentation. This Christmas child of the Petrus family is only brewed throughout the month of November. Its soft aroma is the perfect start for cosy holiday season. 9�V
Victory Yakima Glory Ale
The tenacious grip of big, juicy hop aroma and character slides smoothly into rich, dark malts. This heavyweight battle between fresh, Yakima Valley hops and dark, roasted malts is resolved harmoniously as the flavors merge to deliver complex satisfaction with a warming edge. Enjoy the ‘twilight’ for the bright and brassy hops! 8.7% ABV
Widmer Brothers W’12 Dark Saison
Inspired by the classic French Farmhouse Ale, our interpretation gets its deep ruby red hue from a hint of caramel and dark chocolate malts. The citrus spice of Saaz hops provides a perfect balance and gives each sip a refreshing, peppery finish. IBU 25, 5.5% ABV
Sierra Nevada Beer Camp #55 Pitch-a-Tent IPA
This unusual beer is a great example of what Beer Camp is all about—starting with a tried-and-true style and adding a twist! This American-style IPA was brewed with lavender and just a hint of honey highlighting the unique floral character of the lavender, with the bold citrusy aromas of American hops. Pitch-A-Tent is dry, crisp, and dangerously drinkable. 9% ABV
Lost Abbey Lost and Found
Lost and Found- Modeled after the great Trappist and Monastic beers that inspired the founding of our brewery. A richly deep garnet colored ale created from a blend of Domestic and imported malts. As part of our commitment to interesting brewing endeavors, Chef Vince created a special raisin puree for this beer. Malts, raisins and a fantastic yeast strain working in harmony produce a beer of amazing complexity and depth. Available in 750ml bottles and on draft at select inspired locations. 7.5% ABV
Ommegang 3 Philosophers
Cynics can't believe it, Epicures hail it a sensation, and Pythagoreans just can't add up what makes this luscious blend of rich malty ale and cherry lambic so delightful. It might be the flavor of dark chocolate and cherry cordials; it could be the way it acquires wisdom and grace in the cellar. Maybe it's a conundrum. What's your theory?
The essence of wonder is a unique and masterful blend of strong malty ale and authentic Belgian Kriek. Our philosophers deduce that this powerful marriage of cherries, roasted malts, and dark chocolate will only achieve more wisdom and coherence as it broods in the dark recesses of your cellar. 9.8�V
Avery Mephistopheles
Mephistopheles is the crafty shape shifter, the second fallen angel. Amazingly complex, coal black, velvety and liqueurish, this demon has a bouquet of vine-ripened grapes, anise and chocolate covered cherries with flavors of rum-soaked caramelized dark fruits and a double espresso finish. IBUs 107.
Mephistopheles is the final installment of “The Demons of Ale” series. 15.1%ABV
Boulder Beer Mojo Risin’
Only 120 precious barrels were brewed, adding more than half a ton of extra malt and twice the amount of Amarillo hops, so prepare your self for a full sensory explosion. The double dry-hop addition elevates the grapefruit-like aroma and flavor to an outrageous intensity, while the added malt raises the alcohol level from 7% all the way to 10% by volume. 10%ABV
Odell Saboteur
Our brewer’s created an unpretentious, yet sophisticated brown ale. Then they plotted, and dosed this full-bodied ale with brettanomyces, the ultimate adversary of wineries.
Embracing this vintner’s nemesis resulted in a complex and wonderfully drinkable beer. Intense earthy undertones, and notes of vanilla and pineapple come together with a sour silhouette. Aged in American oak barrels.
10.0% Alc. by Vol.
It’s an unassuming road leading to the priory. Here, off the corner of two intersecting roads, dedicated monks have been making beer for over 150 years. It’s always been a simple life — the kind that requires they brew only enough to sustain the activities of their monastery. In the silence of passing seasons, they pray, they brew and retire in solitary existence behind the sheltering walls. They live a most interesting life. Most likely one we couldn’t sustain.
Nearby, each summer, the trellised fields spring to life as rows of resinous green cones are trained toward the heavens. Rumor is some monks love these hops and being surrounded by budding yellow aromas and the leafy pungent fields inspired them. Since we aren’t sensible enough to locate our brewery near hop fields, we can only offer this blond ale in celebration of our Abbey brethren and their steadfast Devotion. 6.25% ABV
Victory West End Stout
The most refreshing dark beer you could ever imagine this side of Dublin! Low alcohol and roasted barley keep it clean and flavorful. The subtle earthiness of European hops harmonize with the roasted barley to offer a whiff of peat. Served with the classic nitrogen pour, the West End Stout delivers an impressive head and silken body of a classic stout. ABV 3.9%
brouwerij Van Steenberge Gulden Draak
Gulden Draak is a dark brown Triple Ale, which makes it an exception among the Belgian Triples. The second fermentation offers the nice creamy head, the full body and all the vitamins of the centuries old brewers yeast. It is a "thick" beer, that you can actually "eat" to adventure the complex taste. Gulden Draak balances a natural malt toffee-like sweetness with a mellow happiness and some hoppy accents. The aroma is round, sweet and reveals the 10.5 alcohol by volume. ABV 10.5%
brouwerij Van Steenberge Piraat
Piraat is a wickedly rich and rounded brew that packs a mighty punch. The powerful glow builds up from inside. Deep golden with a subtle haze. Lots of hops and malt. Mild sweetness. Reminiscent of bread dough, spices and tropical fruits. ABV 10.5%
Dogfish Head Midas Touch
This recipe is the actual oldest-known fermented beverage in the world! It is an ancient Turkish recipe using the original ingredients from the 2700 year old drinking vessels discovered in the tomb of King Midas. Somewhere between wine & mead; this smooth, sweet, yet dry ale will please the Chardonnay of beer drinker alike. 9% ABV
Moylan’s Blarney
Our Barleywine Style Ale is a rich and heavy ale brewed to a high gravity. Massive body, mouthfeel and hoppiness. Barleywines are the "brandy" of the ale world. A great sipping ale, and a perfect finish to any meal. 10�V
Dogfish Head Theobroma
This beer is based on chemical analysis of pottery fragments found in Honduras which revealed the earliest known alcoholic chocolate drink used by early civilizations to toast special occasions. The discovery of this beverage pushed back the earliest use of cocoa for human consumption more than 500 years to 1200 BC. As per the analysis, Dogfish Heads Theobroma (translated into 'food of the gods') is brewed with Aztec cocoa powder and cocoa nibs (from our friends at Askinosie Chocolate), honey, chilies, and annatto (fragrant tree seeds). It's light in color - not what you expect with your typical chocolate beer. Not that you'd be surpised that we'd do something unexpected with this beer! This beer is part of our Ancient Ales series - along with Midas Touch, Chateau Jiahu, and other - step back in time and enjoy some Theobroma. ABV 9.0%
Stone Highway 78
Green Flash/Pizza Port Carlsbad/Stone Highway 78 Scotch Ale (named after the 18 mile stretch of asphalt that unites us) is an atypical creation for all three breweries. It's a very malty (read: NOT HOPPY) style of beer that we formulated with three different crystal malts, chocolate malt, and English pale malt to provide a rich, bready body. East Kent Goldings and Target hops provide a very modest backbone of peppery hops, but the flavor is unequivocally malt-driven. Scotch Ale yeast and a touch of raw sugar called sucanat add a distinctive complexity to this hefty 8.8% abv beer.
Russian River Pliny the Elder
Pliny the Elder was a Roman naturalist, scholar, historian, traveler, officer, and writer. Although not considered his most important work, Pliny and his contemporaries created the botanical name for hops, "Lupus salictarius", meaning wolf among scrubs." Hops at that time grew wild among willows, much like a wolf in the forest. Later the current botanical name, Humulus lupulus, was adopted. Pliny died in 79 AD while observing the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. He was immortalized by his nephew, Pliny the Younger, who continued his uncle's legacy by documenting much of what he observed during the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. ABV 8.0
Lost Abbey Red Barn
This Farmhouse Ale traces its roots to the small rustic breweries of Southern Belgium. The word Saison comes to us from the French language and it means Season. Lightly spiced with Organic Ginger, Orange Peels, Black Pepper and Grains of Paradise, this brew promises to quench your thirst on the hottest Southern California days or wherever your travels may take you. Available in 750 ml bottles and on draft at select inspired locations. 6.7% ABV
Dogfish Head Raison D’Etre (check spelling)
A deep mahogany, Belgian-style brown ale brewed with beet sugar, raisins and Belgian-style yeast.
We began brewing this one at our pub in 1996 (we began packaging and selling it sometime in 1998) as the answer to the question, "What beer should I enjoy with a wood-grilled steak?" Raison D'Etre fits the bill. It's as tasty and complex as a fine red wine. 8.0�V
Dogfish Head Olde School Barleywine
Bold, yet smooth! Fermented with dates and figs, this bone-crusher has a completely unique flavor.
The concept for this beer came from an old Cellerman's manual Sam came across (for more on that, check out the video below).
At about 15% abv, this beer is a great candidate for ageing. Over time, the beer dries out and the pit fruit flavors come forward and the hops recede. Our recommendation? Grab a few bottles when you find it - enjoy one now, and age the others for a bit. Let us know which you prefer! 13-16% ABV
Russian River Damnation
In the great beer producing country of Belgium, some brewers have made it a tradition to give their beers an unusual name. Sometimes the name is curious, now and then it is diabolical and other times it is just plain silly. Damnation is our brewmaster's interpretation of a Belgian style Strong Golden Ale. It has extraordinary aromas of banana and pear with mouth filling flavors of sweet malt and earthy hops. The lingering finish is dry and slightly bitter but very, very smooth. 7.0% ABV
Russian River Blind Pig IPA
Blind Pig IPA: Blind Pig IPA was originally brewed by Vinnie at Blind Pig Brewing Co. in Temecula CA. Inspired by the original Blind Pig IPA, this beer is loaded with hop character but only has 6.0% ABV
Avery Maharaja
Maharaja is derived from the sanskrit words mahat, - "great" and rajan - "king". Much like its namesake, this imperial IPA is regal, intense and mighty. With hops and malts as his servants, he rules both with a heavy hand. The Maharaja flaunts his authority over a deranged amount of hops: tangy, vibrant and pungent along with an insane amount of malted barley - fashioning a dark amber hue and exquisite malt essence. 10.24% ABV
Upslope Foreign Style Stout
This limited release ale is brewed with snowmelt, malt, Patagonia hops, Irish ale yeast and roasted barley. 6.9% ABV
Russian River Supplication
Supplication: Brown Ale aged in French oak Pinot Noir barrels with three strains of Brettanomyces, Lactobacillus, Pediococcus and sour cherries .
