The Christmas Keister returns on Christmas Eve. We will be tapping the last keg of Christmas Keister that was brewed in December '08 on December 24th.


An Old Ale, or sometimes called a Winter Warmer, this is brewed with over 90% pale malt and a mix of roasted malts to give it a rich brown color. American Hops are used to balance this malty ale; Columbus hops for bittering and Cascade hops for aroma. The strength in alcohol will help warm that winter chill but be careful or you may find yourself on your keister.
ABV 7.2%

Its that time of year,
The Decorations are up,
The Malls are crowded,
The kids are trying to stay on the nice list,
and most people are full of holiday cheer.

To keep you full of Holiday Cheer we brewed a 15 barrel batch of American IPA. We took the popular Modus Hoperandi recipe tweaked it a little with some flaked barley and changed the hop schedule. Brewed with 8 lbs each of Columbus and Cascade Hops, and then dry hopped with a further 8 lbs of Amarillo hops. Over a pound and a half of hops per barrel gives this beer a bitter bite, as well as a pleasant hop aroma.

Keep your holiday cheer up with a pint of Mary Hop-Mas
