JOURNEYMAN (available year-round) $6.50/16oz

Tenpenny: Blonde Ale

Thirst-quenching, highly drinkable, and
light-bodied. Malt-forward and gently
bittered with MI Local magnum and crystal
hops. A great intro to craft beer. ABV4.9%

Cold Chisel: Biere Blanche

Aromatic and refreshing Belgian-style
“white beer.” Brewed with a hint of
orange peel, coriander, and Great Lakes
Malting wheat. ABV 6.0%

Shop Light: “Light Beer”

Easy-drinking, sessionable brew. This deceivingly full-of-flavor light beer is one that you’ll want at the beach, on the boat, mowing the lawn, or whenever you’re feeling parched. ABV 4.1%

Ball Peen: ESB

Bronze-hued ale with earthy appeal:
medium body, full malt flavor, and enough
MI Local magnum and willamette hops to
balance. A staff fave. ABV 5.3%

10-pound Sledge: English IPA

English yeast and plentiful hops (MI Local
magnum, centennial, and willamette). This
is old-school IPA. ABV 5.5%

20-Pound Sledge: American IPA

Abundant doses of Amarillo, Citra, and MI
Local hops yield pronounced bitterness
and powerful citric aromas. ABV 7.1%

Pry Bar: Porter (nitro)

Rich and dark with overtones of baker’s
chocolate. Modest gravity and hopping
make it approachable-nitro draft makes
it smooth. ABV 5.1%

SEASONALS & SWITCHBLADES

Seasonal favorites as well as our brewer’s ever-changing personal tap.

Hop Vac: Harvest Brut Pale

A light bodied, effervescent beer with a straw-colored complexion. Fresh Centennial hops from MI Local give it a grassy aroma. ABV 6.3% $7.50/16oz

Plumb Bob: Breakfast Stout

Luscious American stout, brewed with local, organic, Higher Grounds coffee. Dark, rich and aromatic. ABV 6% $7.50/16oz

Lever Press: Juicy IPA

Medium body with a medium-high bitterness complimented by smooth oat and wheat mouthfeel. Local terroir is on display, as this batch of Lever Press highlights peppery aromas of citrus and pine from Mackinaw hops grown by MI Local in Williamsburg. ABV 8% $7.50/16oz

Slater’s Ripper: Pilsner

Crisp and refreshing with a spicy and floral aroma complimented by a clean dry finish.

ABV5.5% $7.50/16oz

Switchblade #25: Toasted Oat Coffee Lager

American Lager brewed with toasted oats, alongside coffee from Fortunate Coffee Roasters in the warehouse district. Their medium roast Guzman Feria lends aromas of coffee and baker’s cocoa over a silky pale lager. ABV 5.5% $7/16oz

Switchblade #26: Imperial Brown

Aromas of caramel and sugar plums dominate the nose, delivering in the promise of dried fruit and nuts across the palette with the first sip. Finishes semi sweet with an expected warmth from a 10%ABV beer. ABV 10% $7.50/12oz

Switchblade #27: Hazy Pale

Medium bitterness with a floral aroma from local Chinook and Willamette hops. An American classic with a new school twist. ABV 5.3% $7./16oz

Switchblade #28: Cold IPA

Cold IPA is a new style worthy of its own category. Cold IPA is set apart from IPA and IPL by:

•No Carmel malt
•Uses lager yeast strain but at ale temperatures
• Less residual sugar
• Uses a lot of adjuncts, in our case corn
• clear as possible
• Drinkability of a lager with IPA hop profiles (basically the perfect beer style)

Idaho grown Pilsen malt and flaked corn deliver a smooth drinkability, balanced by a medium bitterness. Aromas are reminiscent of citrus, pineapple and green fruit delivered by simcoe and El Dorado hops. ABV 6.2% $7/16oz

Claw Hammer: Mango Hard Seltzer

Refreshing, mango-y. ABV 4% $7/16oz

CIDERS $7.50/16oz
