Description
Big Block engines made their debut in family cars in the late 50’s and early 60’s long before the muscle car ever hit the streets. Back then, ordering a Big Block motor was rare, expensive and not real great on gas. People put these larger, powerful motors in their 4-door Impalas, Galaxies, Wildcats, and Vista cruisers because they wanted more. It made their drive to work or the store just a little bit better, a little faster, a little more fun…. it separated them from the rest and best of all... they did it because they could.

Our brewery was founded on the same principle. Our brews take a little longer to produce, they cost a little more to make, and they just might be a little more fun. When we sit down to have a beer, we want something a little bit more. Why do we brew this way? …Because we can. Take one of our brews for a test drive, sit back and enjoy the ride. Cheers!

Sampler at brewery. Hazy dirty golden color. Clean Mosaic Aroma and flavor. Light white grapes and melon, just as its meant to be. A little more bitterness in the flavor than I like. No malt to really get in the way.

Sampler at brewery. Clear gold amber color. Not much head retention. Aroma is generic American hops - some pine, some sweet hops. No resin or grass. There is a bit of malt sweetness balancing the moderate hop bitterness in the flavor. Bitterness aftertaste. I’m not particularly smitten with this ipa but it gets the job done.

Sampler at brewery. Really a muted golden, clear, mild lacing. Copper tank lager aroma, bread malts. Flavor has a bit more sweetness that I want, but a pretty malt flavor. However, it’s missing all the aspects of a Vienna Lager rather than a malty lager. No caramel, no woodsiness. Decent stuff but not a vienna.
