Besides our big beers, we also have wine from American Wine Project, gluten free beer from AltBrew, & several N/A options!

As always you can bring in your own food & snacks; we will have some light snacks from Bunky’s available and starting at 5pm you can order food from The Deliciouser!

Wheatwine (10.4% abv) (12/15/25)

BA Ryewine (10.2% abv) (9/24/25)

Guest Beeers:

Delta Beer Lab – BA Barleywine (12% abv) 

2023 Barleywine aged in J Henry Bourbon Barrels. Pours a dark mahogany red. Aroma is dominated by black cherry and maple syrup with a touch of fresh-cut wood. Molasses, tart plum, and chocolate mask subtle notes of tobacco smoke and clove. You’ll get some heat from this boozy beer, but a medium body keeps an otherwise big beer from being overpowering.

Working Draft Jim-Jams English-Style Barleywine (10.4% abv) 

English-Style Barleywine brewed with Maris Otter, Crystal and Crystal Rye malts for big notes of toffee and caramel. English hops add a subtle herbal character and balancing bitterness. 10.4% ABV brings the heat and helps cut through the sweetness. Everything an English Barleywine should be!

Great Dane 2017 Vintage Old Scratch Barleywine (9.3% abv)

An ale brewed strong (i.e. to an alcohol strength comparable to wine) is called a barleywine. This vintage pays homage to its English roots.  Made with English Marris Otter malt, with a prominent amount of caramel malt added giving a nice caramel character to the malty base. English Fuggle hops and English yeast give it lots of fruity “English” character. Then four years of aging fills out raisin and fig like flavors and mellows the Barleywine overall.  Well balanced and not too sweet, this sipper is a rare treat. Try it while it lasts.

Sierra Nevada Bigfoot (9.6% abv)

The beast. The beer. The legend. After the workday grind, reconnect with your wild side through our untamed barleywine-style ale. This classic lives up to its namesake: massive malt body, sheer hop intensity, standing at 9.6% ABV.
