The beers below are available on tap in the basement brewery/taproom.
Lakeside ESB
This English Special Bitter is a style that exists at the intersection between bready Maris Otter pale malt and the earthiness of First Gold English hops. A true session beer, this ESB is nicely balanced and has a rich flavor while remaining light bodied - perfect for a late summer evening by the lake (or under a tent, if that's where you happen to find yourself).

New NEIPA
Our New England IPA (NEIPA) is a hazy delight, bursting with juicy hop flavors and vibrant aromas. With prominent notes of tropical fruits, citrus, and a touch of pine, it offers a velvety mouthfeel and a slightly sweet, smooth finish. This unfiltered brew features a soft, pillowy texture that perfectly complements its bold hop character, making it perfect for hop lovers seeking a refreshing and aromatic experience.
6.1% ABV
Amber Ale
Our Amber Ale boasts a rich, copper hue and a perfect balance of malt sweetness and hop bitterness. Its caramel and toffee notes are complemented by a subtle hint of citrus, resulting in a smooth and refreshing finish. Ideal for those who appreciate a well-rounded, flavorful ale.
5.5% ABV
Galaxy Pale Ale
Our Pale Ale, brewed exclusively with Galaxy hops, showcases an explosion of bright and tropical flavors. This golden-hued, slightly cloudy brew offers enticing aromas of passionfruit, peach, and citrus, followed by a crisp and clean finish. The unique character of Galaxy hops, combined with its hazy appearance, makes this Pale Ale a refreshing and visually appealing choice for any hop enthusiast.
5.0% ABV
Cathy's Coconut IPA
An experimental recipe from a favorite brew Cathy found in San Diego. Very bold IPA backbone provides an assertive beer on which to lay the dominant coconut finish. While it took some convincing for Chad, he eventually agreed to formulate a recipe. Very happy with the brew overall, but especially that it didn't turn out tasting like suntan lotion. Best on sunny Summer days.
5.2% ABV
Festbier
Moderately sweet maltiness is balanced with a decisive dose of German Hallertau Mittelfruh Hops, creating a balanced pilsner with hop character than some mainstream pilsners. Much lighter in color than our Mez O'Fest, this balanced, drinkable, and not overly filling brew pairs perfectly with the slight crispness of Fall evenings and the light crunch of leaves under our feet.
5.4% ABV
Maibock
Our Maibock is a robust and flavorful spring lager with a golden amber hue. It features a harmonious blend of rich malt sweetness and a subtle hop bitterness, offering notes of toasted bread, caramel, and a hint of floral spice. This smooth, full-bodied beer is perfect for welcoming the warmer months with its refreshing yet satisfying finish.
7.2% ABV
Deacon Mike's Chocolate Stout
This medium-bodied sweet stout is accented by a determined chocolate character, making it both satisfying, yet crushable. But this stout isn't going to replace a meal or fill you up too quickly. Serving it on nitrogen lends it a silky, almost velvety character and a robust mouthfeel that only adds to its decadent flavor. Pairs especially well with desserts, especially chocolate covered strawberries. Enjoy!

Dunkelweizen
Our Dunkelweizen is a rich and complex dark wheat beer, boasting a deep mahogany color and a creamy, frothy head. It combines the best of malted wheat and roasted barley, delivering flavors of banana, clove, and caramel, with a hint of chocolate and toasted bread. This smooth, medium-bodied brew is perfect for those seeking a flavorful and aromatic beer experience.

Roggenbier
German brewers were legally forced to stop brewing with rye after the 1516 German Beer Purity Law, Reinheitsgebot, went into effect. Still, rye beers were once common and popular in Bavaria, which gave us this delicious, yet now sadly uncommon, style of beer. Our roggenbier is visually stunning, the color of maple syrup and slightly hazy, with a frothy head the color of a latte. This beer is spicy and complex, but not bitter.
5.6% ABV
The beers below are available for tasting by special appointment/invitation only at a secret taproom in Weston, WV.
Knickerbocker Lager
This pre-prohibition American lager is a tip of the hat to a distant family connection – founder of Knickerbocker Brewery, Jacob Ruppert. A simple grain bill that includes flaked corn and 6-row malted barley yields an unassuming yet still distinct light beer with enough character to entice a refined palate while still embraceable by a wider, less discerning audience.
4.1% ABV
Bourbon Barrel Porter - On Nitro
This dark, complex brew showcases is big on flavor, but lighter on body. The bourbon notes dominate the aroma while lending a sweetness to the flavor that is balanced by the oak character borrowed from the barrel in which it was conditioned for over 8 months. It's a bigger beer that drinks easily for those that prefer big flavors of bourbon, coffee and oak.
6.9% ABV
Munich Dunkel
Clean, malty and easy on the palate, dunkel is a perennial favorite of darker beer lovers under Oktoberfest tents everywhere, yet sadly it’s not common in U.S. brewpubs. This traditional German style utilizes Tettnanger hops and Bavarian lager yeast, yielding a dry, yet still malty, brown lager. A lighter drinker with enough roasted flavor to satisfy the darker beer lovers, but not so much body that it'll fill you up quickly.
3.5% ABV
The beers below are available for tasting by special appointment/invitation only at a cabin taproom in Linden, VA.
