WAR ON XMAS! Released Today!

"War On Xmas!" is our 11% White Egg Nog Milk Stout that is released today to your favorite bottle shops and very limited draft accounts.

"War On Xmas!" is made with lactose sugar, Indonesian vanilla beans, Vietnamese cassia bark cinnamon & nutmeg all provided by our good friends at Epic Spices in Chicago. The result is a surprisingly balanced spiced beer reminiscent of delicious mind-bending egg nog and holiday cookies of years gone by.

We're also dropping an old favorite Pazuzu's Pedals today when we unleash the Brony. Pazuzu's Pedals is a black cardamom porter farmhouse and is pretty much the perfect intoxicant to aid in this beautiful fall weather.

If that's not enough, a fresh batch of Astronaut Orange juice is being bottled this weekend and released early next week!! 

Dearest suburban friends: Please be patient, we will be delivering BRONY and Pazuzu to our suburban accounts next week.

Please, good people of the internet, be careful with BRONY. This powerful elixir should not be underestimated. Side effects are to be expected. Please, breathe deep and be at home with them.
