Howdy Folks!
For our 2nd anniversary party we are raiding the cellar! This is your chance to get bottles that you may have missed from the last 2 years. We pulled 43 beers out for this event!
Pro tip: If there's something you really really want, reserve that one first and then go back and place another order for your other bottles. The number of orders you place doesn't matter to us. This is always a little bit of a mad dash, so we apologize in advance if you don't get a specific bottle! If you get an error during checkout, make sure to take a screen shot so we can help you out!
We will also be tapping exclusive one off beers and doing bottle pours of special beers in the tasting room from Thursday the 10th through Sunday the 13th, so mark the whole weekend off in your calendars!
Public reservations begin Saturday 1/5 at noon, and go until Friday 1/11 at noon.
Public pickup day is Saturday, 1/12 from 10am to 4pm. Pickups will end promptly at 4, but our tasting room will be open after 4, and we will be pouring some special beers for our anniversary throughout the night!

NEW BEERS FOR JANUARY:
Polymorphism - Barrel Aged Dark Sour w/ Cinnamon, Vanilla, and Honey - This dark sour is a blend of 3 different dark sour batches that all aged for over a year in oak. We then added an insane amount of vanilla, cinnamon, and an insane amount of honey. The honey added a decent amount of alcohol and a rare amount of sweetness... for a speciation beer. Clocking in at 10% abv, this is a delicious winter sipper, and should age magnificently in your cellar. Limits determined after Cultured Club sales end. $20/bottle. Corked and caged 750ml bottle. 60 cases produced. Statewide Distribution. #pastrysour
Sympatric - Beer/Wine Hybrid - 60% Oak Aged Golden Sour Ale/40% Vignoles Wine w/ Skin Contact - This batch of Sympatric is inspired by the natural/orange wine movement. Some of our favorite wines out there are orange wines, which are essentially white wines made with red wine production methods... namely juice to skin contact (sorry, it's not made from oranges). We crushed Vignoles grapes by foot, fermented the juice on the skins for 14 days, and then free ran the juice off to finish fermentation in oak. After a few months of aging we blended the it with golden sour from our foeder. The end product is something that will shock your wine friends into loving wild beer. Limits determined after Cultured Club sales end. $24/bottle. Corked and caged 750ml bottle. 22 cases produced. Brewery exclusive release. #winemeetsbeer
Mycoplasma - Nordic Cream Ale - Lightly Dry Hopped w/ Mandarina & Saaz - Collaboration with Rake Beer Project - Our buddy Josh Rake is opening a brewery in Muskegon soon called Rake Beer Project. To help kick things off for him, we've brewed up a crusher. We wanted to keep it simple in every way: Pilsner malt, Hornindal yeast fermented at 90F, finished with house cultures, and lightly DH with two simple yet delicious hops. If you enjoyed our wild lagers in the past, this one will be right up your alley. Limits determined after Cultured Club sales end. $6/16oz can. 42 cases produced. Limited statewide distribution. #hornindal
