Description
18th Street Brewery in Hammond, IN is a brewpub, taproom, and bottle shop. We specialize in hand-crafted big, small, barrel-aged and even sour beers.

18th Street Brewery was founded as a home brewery by Drew Fox in 2010. After years of hands-on learning and exploration, 18th Street Brewery became official with the release of Sinister DIPA in 2013. Shortly after the Sinister release, we opened a 3,200 square foot brewpub in Gary, IN. Quickly outgrowing that space, we purchased a 32,000 square foot warehouse in Hammond, IN. Our Hammond location now houses our production, packaging, barrel program, a taproom and a full service kitchen. Our original Gary, IN now houses a small 10-barrel open fermentation system, as well as a taproom, craft cocktail bar and kitchen.

We are currently the second largest brewery in Northwest Indiana. Our beers range from saisons to double India Pale Ales to double milk stouts to pilsners and lagers. 18th Street is comprised of hard working, motivated individuals who strive to be the best. We love our jobs. We love our beer. We live and love what we do.

Great aroma. Flowers with dandelion, fresh law clippings, and tons of flavorful hops. Dry yeasty finish. I liked this more than I expected for a canned saison.

650 ml bottle from Mikkeller Webshop.
Black body, with a small, tan head.
Aroma of dry wooden coffee, ash, chocolate, liquorice, dark fruits, honey.
Taste follows this pretty much.
Quite full, creamy mouthfeel, with a soft carbonation.
Finishes roasty, dry, wooden, coffee like.

Very tasty! Wonderful balance between strong, dry coffee notes and various, subtle sweet notes. A pretty perfect Stout how I love it!
