Beer Philosophy
We don't want to be the next gargantuan brewery in Nebraska. We are a neighborhood brewery with a constantly changing lineup of beer. It’s our goal to change one of our six taps weekly, if not more. Our three barrel (~100 gallon) brewhouse ensures that our beers are ever changing. Make sure to stop back often to find a very unique new brew.
Below, you'll find a list of every beer we've brewed (sans our Tap Seven beers). This list is NOT what is on tap currently, for our current line up, click here.

Abe's Honey Porter
Medal Winner: Second Place Porter/Stout - National Honey Beer Competition
Many a great man has been named Abe, Lincoln, Father Abraham and Simpson. We thought they deserved a great beer so we crafted an easy drinking porter. Don't let the color scare you, this is far from Guinness. We guarantee you'll love this beer even though you can't see through it. Cheers to liking dark beer after sampling this bad boy! Initial honey flavor with an earthy hop finish.

Margaery Grapefruit TIPA
With a taste straight from the hills of Highgarden, this grapefruit IPA starts with a heavy grapefruit and citrus nose, follows with grapefruit and a mildly earthy taste, and is rounded out by a slightly sweet and insanely crisp finish. A beer fit for any queen of the realm.

becky sue pale ale
Named for a great woman, Becky Sue finishes a bit piney with a huge nose of citrus. Heavy doses of Citra hop lend to the best pale we’ve ever brewed. This brew and our brewery wouldn’t be possible without the support of Becky Sue. So raise your glass to one hell of a mother-in-law.

Regulars
Just like Norm, you can expect to see these beers in our line up often throughout the year.
Amber waves of Wayne
America’s a pretty beautiful and we think Wayne is perdy too. This is our first beer with “Wayne” in the name. We were waiting for something catchy, we think we found it. Chocolate malt brings a dark amber appearance and sweet finish to this one-of-a-kind amber.

Lil Boy Blaze Cranberry Wheat
While researching Wayne, we stumbled across the first story in the 1912 Herald "Little Boy Starts Blaze". To immortalize W.F. Wright's 3 year old, we named Greg's favorite beer after him. This one of a kind beer tastes as if a beer and a wine had a baby that was raised by a sour patche kid.

Schrock bottom citrus wheat
Steve Schrock not only has a great sounding name but the Wakefield native was THE very first person to ever like the brewery’s Facebook Page (like, before we even told our parents). To honor this social media ninja, and because we fell in love with his name, we named this wonderful wheat beer after Mr. Schrock. Enjoy this slightly sweet wheat beer with the slice of orange already in the beer and toast Steve!

Seasonal/one-off beers
Once a year beers or a one-off that might never come back on tap.
oktoberfest marzen
Our take on a traditional Marzen style Oktoberfest beer. A malty amber lager with a slight cherry finish.
4.73% ABV; 18 IBU
4.73% ABV; 18 IBU
wild oz fresh hop cream
Wild OZ is brewed with with wild hops that have been growing near Osmond's butcher shop for the last 100 years. These wild fresh hops (picked hours before we brewed it) lend an old world feel to this easy drinking cream ale. Crisp drinkability with a slight earthy finish.

Benedict cucumberbatch pilsner
A wonderfully unique pilsner made with fresh Wayne cucumbers from Hochstein Acres. Strong cucumber nose with a smooth flavor and crisp finish of summer in a glass. It's elementary, really, you'll want to hoard this like a pile of liquid gold.
3.94% ABV; 18 IBU
3.94% ABV; 18 IBU
caramel salted lager
A heavy dose of biscuit malt gave this blended lager not only the look of caramel but a slight caramel finish. We loved the caramel flavor so much that we wanted to salt it to help bring out the carameliness. An initial shock of salt followed by a caramel finish.

original sin apple wheat
Eve's not the only one that's in love with apples. Heavy apple finish makes you even forget you're drinking a beer.

4.86% ABV; 16 IBU
Statek Blonde
Greg’s first holy $#*! homebrew recipe. We’ve been holding on to this bad boy until we could find some fresh hops. Just picked Bancroft & Randolph hops give this blonde a straight from the farm feel. P.S. “Statek” means farmhouse in Czech.
5.12% ABV; 23 IBU
5.12% ABV; 23 IBU
Juiced UP CranApple Wheat
We combined two of our best flavored wheat beers, cranberry and apple. Uniquely colored, Juiced Up hits your palette with a blast of sour apple and cranberry and finishes with mild apple.

IDK Blonde
This intro to craft beer just can't make up it's mind switching between a farmhouse ale and a blonde - so we named her "Indeterminate" but that was too hard to say so we shortened it to IDK Blonde? IDK is a great introduction to craft beer. Hints of grapefruit and pine with a smooth traditional crisp finish.

5.78% ABV; 21 IBU
Colt Kick Session IPA
Just like the pony you wanted for Christmas as a kid, this beer is a great introduction to IPA's. With a lower ABV and IBU content, this beer is easy drinking for a pallet looking for more taste without the extreme bitterness of a true IPA. Just because it's little doesn't mean you shouldn't respect it. Mosaic and Citra aroma hops provide a floral and citrus finish without too much bitterness.

Hodge Podge Pale Ale
A mix match of grains and hops made for a great pale ale. Greg's first handful-of-this-and-that recipe and it turned out great. This easy drinking malt forward introductory craft beer finishes with a hint of pine.
4.86% ABV; 22 IBU
4.86% ABV; 22 IBU
La Porte Pale
Named for Wayne County’s first town, La Porte Pale is a fresh hopped pale ale (meaning the hops were picked hours prior to brewing). Citra hops give a slight citrus bitterness but the grassy/pine/tangerine finish comes from hops grown in Bancroft, NE

5.64% ABV; 21 IBU
10 hand Kick IPA
Colt Kick Session IPA was in our opening line up, we loved that beer but wanted to take a different look at it. We decided to brew a true IPA and increased the IBU and ABV. This beer ain't a Colt any more, she's a bit more grown up, about 10 hands worth but she's still got some kick. Mild alcohol volume doesn't overtake the big hop bill lending to a citrus/pine finish.
5.25% ABV; 64 IBU
5.25% ABV; 64 IBU
lochness pilsner
Eight stories of flavor round out this classical pilsner that will remind you of your first sip of beer that you took back in the Mesozoic Era. Smooth bitterness with a mild lemon finish.

Scrooge Holiday bitter ale
Just like its namesake, this holiday ale has a heavy dose of bitter but the more you drink it, we guarantee it will grow on you ... let's just hope it doesn't take three ghosts to make you come around. Initial citrus bitterness with a malty mouthfeel.

Red on you IPA
We wanted to make an IPA to celebrate on the most beautiful colours in the rainbow. So grab a pint of this pretty beer and wait for this to blow over. This colourful twist on a classic American style features a high ABV with notes of pine and citrus hops and finishes slightly sweet.
7.48% ABV; 63 IBU Malt Potion Stout
Black as motor oil and smooth as sin! This malt forward stout is made with nine different malts (grain) from England, Belgium, and U.S. Dense maltyness is perfectly balanced by a heavy dose of English Fuggle hops. Initial earthy bitterness and malt heavy finish with an exquisite mouth feel.
6.96% ABV; 26 IBU bohemian bullet
Fast and Smooth. This domestic styled ale is by far the clearest beer we’ve ever made. We set out to make one hell-of-a lawnmower beer and we think we accomplished it! Cascade hops round out this heavily adjuncted ale giving it a slight bitterness on the after taste.
4.2% ABV; 14 IBU Is it dead irish red
Crafted from the best malts we could find to deliver a truly Irish pub style red. We recommend keeping firearms and cats out of reach while drinking this vastly malt-forward red. Is It Dead will hit you with an initial roasted rye maltyness and finish slightly earthy.
5.38% ABV; 30 IBU Raven Black Amber
Mild roasted flavors and a subtle caramel and toffee finish round out this incredibly smooth beer. Notes of chocolate and coffee make it perfect for a relaxing pint while watching for white walkers.
6.56% ABV; 27 IBU |
Ruckin Rugger Red
To celebrate WSC Rugby’s multi-national championships, we wanted to make a traditional Irish Red with an American flare. Ruckin’ Rugger combines a slightly nutty and biscuit malt base a slight citrus pine finish. Don’t be put off by the colour. You could drink this all day on the pitch. Fifty cents of every pint will go to the WSC Rugby Club.

coloured pebbles ipa
A heavy dose of Mosaic hops pairs perfectly with Citra to make a liquid mural of hops. Initial notes of pine with a strong dose of grapefruit and a hint of lemon. Coloured Pebble finishes incredibly hoppy, not for the weak of tongue.
6.3% ABV; 74 IBU
6.3% ABV; 74 IBU
cc Saison
A higher fermentation temperature lends to a slight pepper flavor with heavy lemon citrus finish for this "not for everyone" beer. Don't ask what CC stands for, we'll never tell!

5.38% ABV; 35 IBU
cowardly lion pre-prohibition Lager
Cowardly Lion is our take on an easy drinking, yet slightly meaty ye olde lager. It’s named after Nebraska’s infamous William Jennings Bryan, who was the muse for the well-loved spineless lion in Baum’s political satire, The Wizard of Oz. Traditional hops offer a new take on a familiar beer.
5.91% ABV; 31 IBU
5.91% ABV; 31 IBU
hop candy SMASH IPA
The only candy we added to this bad boy was green, pelletized and bitter as hell! The Venetians made one heck of a malt and we decided to pay them homage. Vienna malt and Citra hops pair perfectly to offer you a slightly sweet yet high alcohol content beer.
10% ABV; 94 IBU
10% ABV; 94 IBU
cluckin good corn lager
“Cluck ME, that’s a good beer!” was our brew master’s first words after taking a sip of this easy drinking lager. A slightly higher hop profile than your traditional lagers makes this full bodied Chicken Show inspired beer Cluckin’ Good! Slight earthy finish with a smooth malt bill.
4.86% ABV; 28 IBU
4.86% ABV; 28 IBU
amarillo squared pilsner
This beautiful beer is not only amarillo in color but we used Amarillo hops. Smooth drinking pilsner with an American twist of lemon, orange and grapefruit hop character.
