on TAP

4.5% ABV - Floral hop with notes of lemon rind and fresh pine needle on pale, bready malt, satisfying bitter finish.
4.5% ABV - Light and snappy with a clean floral and herbal aroma, backed by a crisp bread malt backbone. A balanced dry finish.
6.5% ABV - Juicy! Bursting with nectarine and bright peach flavors, notes of berries and melon.
5.5% ABV - Go for the gold! Golden Lager that is. Liberty Gold is our take on a Dortmunder Export Lager. Rich with a refined balance of bready malt flavor, accented by a floral and herbaceous hop profile with a crisp, satisfying finish.
5.2% ABV - Tippler, our lovely summer ale, is a fun and bright golden beer with notes of peach and candied citrus with a country biscuit finish.
4.8% ABV - Timeless in nature, Backroad Odysseys is a nod to the classic American Pale Ale. Balanced between hops and malts with fresh pine, citrus, and marmalade flavors.
9.5% ABV - Feeling Social? Smooth Imperial IPA with notes of candied citrus, dank resin, and a clean bitter finish.
6.5% ABV - A unique style created by Strong Rope, our NY Copper is a mid-strength beer blending together deep malt character with a refined hop profile, resulting in a smooth, easy-drinking spring patio beer.
7.2% ABV - Our take on a Maibock. A full-bodied malty lager with sweet floral notes. A clean bitterness cuts through the end.
8.7% ABV — Chocolate J — a spiced-up version of our Imperial Brown Ale, Big J – has been enhanced with Amburana wood staves, Madagascar Vanilla, and Raaka Chocolate (Red Hook) Cacao Nibs, giving a wonderful dessert edge to this limited-edition beer.
4.2% ABV - Brewed in collaboration with our neighbors, Steve's Authentic Key Lime Pie, this is a zesty, bright, and tart Key Lime Sour inspired by their classic dessert and reminiscent of a cold margarita. Perfect summer beer. *Contains Lactose*
5.4% ABV - Our yearly Pride Month beer. For 2026, we brewed a wheat ale with peach concentrate and puree that yielded a fruit-forward, lightly tart, and crisp summer sipper. This year, we’re supporting the Brooklyn Community Pride Center, Brooklyn’s only LGBTQ+ community center.
6.9% ABV - A tart, complex, dry cider that is our take on American heritage ciders. Notes of grapefruit and citrus are married with beautiful minerality. Expect a light, refreshing mouthfeel, crisp acidity, and slight earthiness on the finish.
