Beers ON tap
President Street
President Street is a pale lager with lingering bitterness that finishes dry, snappy, and refreshing. It has a balanced aftertaste of lingering herbal and slightly spicy Saaz hops. President Street is a collaboration with our friends and host brewery Forever Brewing in Brooklyn.
Guy Forget
Guy Forget [pronounced: gee for-jay] is a French inspired pale lager with a biscuit and crackery malt sweetness cut by mild bitterness, notes of herbal spice, and a touch of lemon. It has a smooth velvety mouthfeel that leaves a lasting taste of faint berry skin. Rustic but bright.
Boyfriend
Boyfriend is an American wheat lager with a soft rounded grain sweetness balanced by zesty hop flavors of orange peel and stone fruit, accented by a subtle classic piney note in the mix. The red wheat contributes a pillowy texture that dries out nicely. Boyfriend is a collaboration brewed for Boyfriend Co-op, a queer-run worker-owned cooperative bar in Bushwick, Brooklyn.
Alan
Alan is a mixed culture saison brewed with flaked wheat, peppercorns, peaches, Thai basil, and a subtle addition of cascade hops. Fermented in a wine puncheon (wooden barrel) and made with 100% NY State ingredients, this is a classic old world saison with a NY twist! Named in honor of Alan Sprints, founder of Hair of the Dog Brewing Company, who passed away earlier this summer. He was a force in our industry and an OG of barrel aged beers. Alan is a collaboration with our friends at Endless Life Brewing in Industry City, Brooklyn.
