NYC SHIPPING RATES

Local pickup is always free.

Our recipe uses the classic combination of 6-Row Barley Malts (originally chosen by immigrant brewers because they were easier to grow than their 2-Row counterparts in American soil) with flaked corn and rice. Corn and rice are added to thin out the higher protein content of 6-row malt and add a distinctly American flavor profile to the recipe.
Expect a more grain-focused flavor (cracker rather than malt) with a hint of sweetness and body from the corn. Saaz hops bring the noble aromas (floral, earthy) that complement the grain profile. A well done version of this style should have a dry finish that makes you want to come back for more.
