Oktoberfest

Do it right or don’t do it at all. When you make a rich Bavarian-style lager, you use the best Bavarian toasted malts and a lot of them, the best German noble hops, a traditional Bavarian lager yeast... Do it right. And then lager it. Take your time. Do it right. We did this one right; rich toast, light spicy hops, pillowy soft mouth feel, and a crisp but lasting finish that can only be accomplished by, you guessed it, Doing it right.

Malpais Stout

A meal in a glass. Brewed with 7 different malts, you should be ready for a full onslaught of creamy stout intensity. Broadly in the style of a Foreign Extra Stout, this is our heaviest and most intense year-round offering.

Beer

Too snobby for a good ol’ beer? Looks like beer... Smells like beer... Tastes like beer... it’s BEER. Our aptly named lager is light in body but substantial enough in flavor to let you know that yes.. You are drinking beer.

Yeah BEER!

Juntos

A Fire Relief IPA

As many of you know, fires swept through Lincoln and Otero County toward the end of June 2024. Containment of the Salt and South Fork fires continues as localized flooding causes further damage to an already devasted Ruidoso community.

PLS

German Pilsner

Pale Light Sessionable.

From Bauhaus modernism to contemporary poster culture, German design has always been sleek, crisp, and efficient, with a tendency to design honestly and focus on the necessities. It allows for the true artistry of simplicity to shine through. But don't be fooled by the absence of complications; minimalism is one of the hardest things in design to execute well. And much like modernism, German or otherwise, a well-executed Pilsner is truly a thing of beauty. Minimalism creates a beer that is beautiful in its crisp, efficient simplicity. A simplicity that is deceivingly complex and beautiful. Brewed honestly and focused on necessities, this is one of the hardest beers to get right, and this German pils might be a masterclass in German design.

Neo Arcade

Join us and a health scoop of nostalgia as we release Neo Arcade, a hazy DIPA that utilizes the talents of Simcoe, Nelson, Strata, and Sabro hops to create a juicy masterpiece perfect for a night out at the arcade. Save up your quarters!

Sun Fade

Hazy IPA

Lush with bright fruit from the interplay of a unique yeast strain and irresponsible levels of dry-hopping, Sun Fade quenches the dryness of the Southwestern deserts like no other beer can.

Electro City

<
Electro City is plush, lush, juicy, and electrifying. Electro City relies on Chinook, Citra, Strata, El Dorado, and Mosaic hops to get the job done. Delicious and satisfying; everything you want in a hazy DIPA.

Lager Softly

Lager Softly is a well-hopped lager, brewed with the highest quality pilsner malt, and unfiltered for a beautifully simple yet endlessly satisfying experience. Lager Softly will be available THIS FRIDAY at noon as a limited, taproom-only, release.

Strawberry Gose

The Gose style is a sour and salted ale synonymous with the town of Leipzig in Germany. We bring new life to this style with the addition of strawberries which pair beautifully with the tart and briney quality of this classic.

Café con Leche

*This beer contains both lactose and caffeine* Starting with a rich sweet stout base, we added both lactose to the kettle and 20 lbs. of locally roasted Cutbow Coffee espresso to the finished beer. The result is an aroma that is brimming with java and chocolate, an incredibly full mouthfeel and a creamy sweet finish

Siren Song

Imperial Red

You and me and the Devil makes three. After 8 months in Bourbon Barrels, this enormous Imperial Red has developed long, rich caramel, vanilla flavors powerful enough to lure any sailor off course. Go to sleep ya little baby.

La Negra

Big, black, beautiful; La Negra is our Bourbon barrel-aged Russian Imperial Stout, brewed with our British Pale malt, and an enormous amount of roasted malts. As in the past, we collected a copious amount of sticky wort, and then further fortified it with a very long boil. The resulting beer has a big bourbon and raisin nose,an enormously rich body and a bittersweet cocoa finish.

Gilded Age

Harkening back to a time when pale malts had not yet even been created, our deep black Porter is rich but balanced, intensely chocolaty but not burnt.

Acclimated APA

Elevate, elevate, elevate… It’s what we’ve been doing for years now. We’re really, really good at it. But we’re looking to settle into something as compelling as our world-class IPAs, but less elevating. Acclimated APA. It’s what IPA drinkers drink when they’re not drinking IPA.

Sun Fade

Lush with bright fruit from the interplay of a unique yeast strain and irresponsible levels of dry-hopping, Sun Fade quenches the dryness of the Southwestern deserts like no other beer can.
