Beer/Spirits List:
Things We Don’t Say IPA: This is just beer and it’s not that serious. Mental health on the other hand is serious. This massive, multi-brewery collaboration with Hope For the Day is being brewed all over the country to break the silence about mental health in the craft beer industry.
Spruce Gin: A plentiful amount of Colorado spruce tips, rooibos tea, citrus, lavender, and traditional gin botanicals are utilized to evoke deep forest pine notes that blend with bright citrus and meadow-like floral depth.
Rye to Perdition: Malted Rye with a blend of Cherry and Apple wood smoked barley, and oak smoked wheat form the grain bill.
Son of Shakey IPA: Brewed with wheat, oats, and lactose for that thick and creamy body you’ve come to expect from the Shakey surname. Dry-hopped with Mosaic, Mosaic Cryo and El Dorado hops and hit hard with Vanilla post fermentation.
