Our Beer
Our flagship beer is a bright, crisp take on the ales of Köln, Germany. We took the precision of this classic German style and adapted it to the American palate with PNW-grown hops, producing a beer of surprising depth and nuance for such a refreshing style.
An intense, pitch-black stout with bold flavors of coffee and dark cocoa from the roasted malts. This beer takes its name from the jet-black carpenter bees, genus Xylocopa.
Our rotating line of IPAs is all about hops. Each release showcases a different blend of hops over a crisp, dry bed of pale malt. Join us on this hop odyssey as we explore new varieties from the PNW and from around the globe!
