On Tap: Barrage Brown Ale, Angry Scot Scottish style wee heavy ale, Muzzle Flash American amber ale, Broadside IPA, and Smoothbore Stout.
Seasonal: Kanonefest (Fall). A Märzen style beer that uses ale yeast instead of the traditional lager yeast.
Langrage Line: Session Porter is a session beer made from the final runnings of a porter mash. The resulting beer has all the same flavor aspects of a porter, but in milder concentrations. This beer is only 4% alcohol, so it’s well suited for longer drinking sessions.
