Description
At The Unknown Brewing Company we are more than just a name. A name does not mean you make good beer, and good beer does not have to have a name.

Our job is to stand out. We are the open road with no destination. We are your first kiss or your last time jumping out of an airplane, or whatever your wildest adventure is. We are The Unknown.

So if you need us to have a name, make one up. If you make one up we prefer you call us something with adventure, or America, or dragons or something epic. That would be awesome. All we know is that we are good people whose mission is to make really great beer and have fun doing it. So our call to you... Step into the Unknown

Clear very dark brown color, scant tan head. Aroma of cinnamon, dark fruit, roast. taste is brown bread toast, more cinnamon, raisins, dates. Not really necessary to add raisins and spice to a quad, is it?

Can. Cloudy golden color, see pic please. Aroma of rum and bright lime which makes a fairlo odd combo. Taste is very earthy almost salty lime and a bit of vanilla and rum. Interesting.
