Poppy is a raspberry flavored Berliner-style weisse.

ANNUAL CHARITY BEER — Characterized by floral, fruity, citrus-like, piney, resinous American hops, the American pale ale is a medium-bodied beer with low to medium caramel, and carries with it a toasted maltiness.

Jadotville – Dry Irish Mint Chocolate Stout 5%
SEASONAL — Dry stout is black beer with a dry-roasted character thanks to the use of roasted barley. The Jadotville is a Mint Chocolate version of the celebrated Irish style, which brings a level to sweetness to usual bitter beer. The name Jadotville comes from a controversial UN expedition into the Congo in which Irish soldiers repelled thousands of African mercenaries in the town of Jadotville, Netflix recently made a movie about the famed last stand called the “Siege of Jadotville.”
MOAB Ale “Mother Of All Brown” Ales (5.8% ABV.)
SEASONAL — An English Brown ale with malty yet hoppy flavor profile. The MOAB has a honey-caramel taste to it.

(Brown ales originate in England and Belgium, from the 100% brown malt and low hoppiness)

Oh Dark Thirty – Imperial Stout 10.2%
The American-style imperial stout is the strongest in alcohol and body of the stouts.

The Oh Dark Thirty is infused with cocoa nibs and vanilla bean during the fermentation process to make it a chocolate vanilla stout. The ODT is named after the time when most combat troops would attack in the middle of the night, dark like midnight but an explosion of taste.
