One of Thor’s two ferocious goats that pull his chariot, leaving a trail of thunder and flame across the sky and provide him sustenance each night, only to be resurrected daily by his mighty hammer Mjölnir, Tanngrisnir is a great companion of the Thunder God, showing favored traits of strength, resilience, and symbolizing the recurring themes of death and renewal in Norse mythology.
Our tribute to the Bock style beers of antiquity, and the tradition of advertising them with goat imagery, this strong, malty, fruit forward beer style has a big, bready foundation, with nuanced notes of ripe, dark orchard fruit, along with gently sweet caramel, banana, and spice.
With minimal hop presence, the star of the show stands forward as the always excellent craft malt from our good friends at Riverbend Malt House, featuring heaps of their Appalachian wheat, and a blend of their custom Munich malts.

Lemon and bread yeast. Some florals. Pours copper with good head and lacing. Light tang in the finish, some sweet banana bread. Nice for uncommon style. Can.

Pours a cloudy brownish color, huge foaming khaki head spills over but then fades quite quickly. Nose is heavy on sweet and candied malt, a touch doughy. Flavor similar, more dough and yeast, sweet to semi-sweet, caramel and molasses, a light hint of a dark fruit, hard to specify, maybe a sweet bruised apple or pear, or maybe their commercial description of orchard fruit is leading me on. Leans also into fig or date territory but not quite the way certain belgian styles do. Very light phenols round out the finish, just a hint of clove. Heavy overall palate, but not cloying or harsh. So refreshing to find a beer that isn't a heavily fruited sour or hazy IPA.
