- Serving Temperature: 40-45º F
- Suggested Glassware: Pilsner Glass, Willi Becher, Flute
- Hops: Pilsner, Vienna
- Malts: Perle, Tradition
- Country: United States
Helles (meaning “bright” or “pale”) lagers are among the most important and popular in the pantheon of German lager styles. A bit fuller and rounder on the palate than most German pilsners, with a bit more of a restrained hop presence, they deliver artful and flavorful balance in a clean and crisp package. KC Bier’s Helles presents a radiant golden hue with good clarity and a prominent head of bright foam. On the nose, we get exactly the kind...
- Bottle Size: 12-oz
- Style: Dry-hopped American Lager
- ABV: 5.0%
- Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 25
- Serving Temperature: 40-45º F
- Suggested Glassware: Pilsner Glass, Flute
- Hops: Sabro, El Dorado
- Malts: Pilsner, Corn
- Country: United States
Violet Fire presents a bright straw color, lightly chill hazed, topped by a head of white foam. Uinta calls this a “new style lager” – essentially a classic American-style lager base that’s been “re-imagined” by dry-hopping with the modern hop cultivars Sabro and El Dorado to deliver the juicy and fruity hop aroma (although not the bitterness) of a modern IPA. On the nose, look for an expressive and complex array of subtle impressions including...

- ABV: 5.0%
- Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 18
- Serving Temperature: 45-50º F
- Suggested Glassware: Flute, Pilsner Glass
- Hops: Perle
- Malts: Munich, Melanoidin, Pilsner, Aroma, Carafa
- Country: United States
This Munich-style dunkel presents an attractive ruddy brown hue as it rests in our glass, topped by a cap of light brown foam. In the aroma, beautiful malty notes give us impressions of brown bread, toasted grain, lightly roasted nuts, and fresh hay, overlaid by a hint of spicy, lightly woody hops. Look for toasted crusty bread to come forth front and center on the palate, atop some deep-down caramelization, a touch of brown sugar, and flashes...
- Bottle Size: 12-oz
- Style: American Pilsner with Lime
- ABV: 5.0%
- Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 14
- Serving Temperature: 40-45º F
- Suggested Glassware: Pilsner Glass, Flute
- Hops: Tradition
- Malts: 2-Row, Pilsner, Corn
- Country: United States
This American-style pils is brewed with natural lime, making for a very refreshing summertime brew. On the pour, we’re presented with a golden straw color topped by a fluffy cap of foam that laces nicely as it recedes. The lime jumps out right away in the aroma, joined by a dash of fruity and lightly grassy hops. That special addition is immediately apparent on the palate as well, offering a big citric fruity character along with some acidity...
- Bottle Size: 12-oz
- Style: IPA with German & American hops
- ABV: 5.8%
- Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 42
- Serving Temperature: 45-50º F
- Suggested Glassware: IPA Glass, Pint Glass
- Hops: Perle, Columbus, Talus, Citra
- Malts: Pilsner, Vienna
- Country: United States
With Never Say IPA, KC Bier utilizes Perle hops (a German variety) in concert with American hops to produce their vision of a German influenced American IPA. On the pour we’re presented with a hazy golden color topped by a large head of off-white foam. The aromas are quite inviting, dominated by a pleasant fruitiness that bends toward citrus, but with touches of stone and tropical fruits, some floral flourishes, and mild herbal tones. The story...
- Bottle Size: 12-oz
- Style: New England-style Hazy IPA
- ABV: 5.0%
- Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 45
- Serving Temperature: 45-50º F
- Suggested Glassware: IPA Glass, Pint Glass
- Hops: Citra, Centennial, Idaho 7, El Dorado, Mosaic, Galaxy
- Malts: 2-Row, Pilsner, Wheat, Blond Roasted Oats, Oats
- Country: United States
Hazy Nosh is a New England-style hazy IPA that is now a year-round offering alongside Uinta’s flagship, and more traditional, Hop Nosh IPA. On the pour, we get a well-hazed golden orange hue topped by a prominent cap of foam that drops to a persistent collar. Look for a bold and multifaceted hoppy aroma offering lots of juicy tropical notes reminiscent of pineapple, mango, and passion fruit, backed up by fresh citrus notes focused on orange...
- Bottle Size: 12-oz
- Style: Session IPA
- ABV: 5.0%
- Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 46
- Serving Temperature: 45-50º F
- Suggested Glassware: Glassware: IPA Glass, Pint Glass
- Hops: Bravo, Centennial, Talus, Simcoe, Chinook
- Malts: 2-Row, Munich, C40
- Country: United States
Uinta’s current version of Trader came on the scene a few years ago, with the ABV increased from its original 4% to 5% now. While they’ve dropped the original “session IPA” branding, we still feel it’s a pretty sessionable IPA, delivering big, hoppy flavor without the 7%-ish ABV that often accompanies traditional IPAs. This bright copper brew builds plenty of rocky white foam as you pour, from which emerge big and brightly fruity hop aromas...
- Bottle Size: 330-ml
- Style: Oud Bruin
- ABV: 5.5%
- Serving Temperature: 45-55° F
- Suggested Glassware: Tulip, Snifter, Oversized Wine Glass
- Country: Belgium
- Bottle Size: 330-ml
- Style: Kölsch

- Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 25
- Serving Temperature: 40-45° F
- Suggested Glassware: Stange, Pilsner Glass
- Hops: Hallertauer Perle, Hallertauer Magnum
- Country: Germany
Pouring a bright golden straw color with good clarity and a large head of foam that laces nicely as it recedes, Gaffel Kölsch looked quite appealing in our tall, straight-sided, cylindrical “stange” (“pole” or “stick” in German) – the traditional kölsch glass. On the nose, we picked up light fruity and floral impressions, with hints of pear and green apple, wisps of woodsy spice, and even shades of mint with a good swirl of the glass. The malts...
- Bottle Size: 750-ml
- Style: Blended Oak-aged Imperial Brown Ale
- ABV: 11.5%
- Serving Temperature: 44–51° F
- Suggested Glassware: Snifter, Chalice, Tulip, or Teku
- Country: United States
The Last Sipper by The Lost Abbey is an intriguing blend of bourbon-barrel-aged Quadrupel and American Strong ale, showcasing the brewery’s exceptional creativity in barrel-aging and blending. We eagerly anticipated this release ever since our initial discussions with Tomme about blending options. This unique combination merges two robust dark styles, naturally complementing each other with notes of dark fruit, caramel, Belgian candi sugar...
- Bottle Size: 750-ml
- Style: Belgian-Style Tripel
- ABV: 9%
- Serving Temperature: 45–52° F
- Suggested Glassware: Chalice, Goblet, or Tulip Glass
- Country: United States
At Barrel of Monks, we consider the Tripel to be the quintessential Belgian beer. Three Fates was the first beer we brewed when formulating recipes for our fledgling brewery, back in 2013 and 2014. We brewed this beer no less than 20 times prior to opening, largely in search of the yeast strain that would give us the flavor profile we were looking for. The malt bill and hops are pretty straightforward when brewing a Tripel, but the yeast...
