Flocking Outside 8%
Flocking Outside is a brand-new collab with our friends at Prison City
Brewing in honor of their 10 years of crafting killer brews. Flocking Outside
is an American IPA inspired by the jam-band vibes and communal spirit
of Phish's iconic song “Birds of a Feather.” Pouring into the most enticing
and fluffiest head, it is bursting with notes of sweet mandarin, zesty citrus
peel, and tropical fruits, and rounded out with dank fresh pine needles. It’s
brewed with Vista, Eclipse, and Motueka Cryo for a flock of flavor that soars!

Holiday Fizz 6.4%
Nigel Fezziwig’s Holiday Fizz, a spiced ale bottle-conditioned for a year, is fizzy and holiday spiced with a touch of funk.

Black Flannel Brewing and Distilling Company
Viking Aquavit 43%
Whether you’re of Nordic ancestry or you just like top-quality, locally made botanical spirits, come in and taste our Viking Aquavit. It’s composed of Black Flannel neutral spirit steeped with four botanicals, including a robust quantity of caraway seed, then redistilled to give a complex spirit with a taste that’s akin to sipping rye bread with a very slight hint of licorice and citrus. Once you taste it, you’ll want to buy at least one bottle for yourself and those spirits lovers on your Christmas (or other holiday) gift list.
