Description
Our beer is and will always be clean and consistent with a strong focus on balance. We feel our four flagship offerings best represent Pollyanna and take pride in their year-round availability (we package everything in cans and bottles). We're constantly experimenting with local fruits and spices, seasonal lagers, barrel-aging, wild yeast, and bacteria. In our intimate and truly unique taprooms, we offer tasting flights, draft pours, and to-go 64oz growlers, 32oz howlers, or 32oz crowler cans. Our Lemont location offers a scenic look at the brewery, our Roselle location offers a wide array of wood barrels, Italian Foudres, and a smaller brewhouse for unique one-off offerings, and our St Charles location offers our largest taproom and a beautiful view of the Fox River. Keep an eye out for a constant rotation of special firkins and taproom only offerings at each location.

A pint can obtained from Gold Eagle Liquor, Libertyville, Illinois. This evening I have a Delirium snifter ready to go, the tab is pulled and I pour. The body shows an amber-brown color with a sparse ring of light tan bubbles. I take a sniff and get quite a bit of grape, yeast and some booziness. The taste goes a number of different directions. Caramel, malt, figs, grapes again, leather, alcohol and a bit of chocolate. More bitter than most quads and there is a moderately strong fullness. Tasty beer, I would like to find it again.

16 oz. can from Trader Joe's. Pours a lot of fizzy heads. Hazy straw color with lots of bubbles. Yes, the fusel smell of a cheap malt liquor. Guess that's all I should expect. But the taste redeems this puppy: noticeable malt, a little bitterness, but not sugary or headache inducing. Though I would not want to take a chance on more than one at a time.

Aroma has notes of matchsticks, banana, wheat crackers, earth, clove. Flavors like the aroma along with a slight medicinal off-note.
