American Premium Lager

Brevard Brewing Company's lightest offering, yet so delicious it proves it's OK for beer geeks to drink "lawnmower beer". It is packed with more flavor than you will find in the average American canned beer, but light enough to drink all summer day long. Brevard Premium Lager is perfect for any occasion, whether watching a ball game or chatting with friends.

Bohemian Pilsner

Brevard Brewing Company's flagship beer, the Bohemian Pilsner is everything that beer should be. Cold lager fermentation and a medium-light body produce a crisp, clean, and smooth mouthfeel. Imported noble hops from the Czech Republic and Germany lend a floral aroma and spicy hop flavor, while extremely soft brewing water creates soft, round flavors. This beer is the perfect marriage of flavor and drinkability.

American IPA

Though we focus on lagers, this India Pale Ale was too good not to serve. The hallmark of a great IPA is drinkability, and this beer is no exception. Five separate hop additions make this beer explode with citrusy hop bitterness, flavor, and aroma. Medium-light bodied and superbly quaffable, be careful with this one because the 6.0% alcohol content sneaks up on you quickly!

Munich Dunkel

(pronounced Doon-kel): Brevard Brewing Company's darkest beer--finally, a welcome alternative to the mandatory Porter found in nearly every craft brewery line-up in the country. Dunkel literally means "dark" in German, but don't let the dark color fool you. This is still a German lager beer. While chocolate malt and an abundance of German Munich malts provide a solid malt backbone, the medium body and lager fermentation make this beer surprisingly drinkable. If a Porter and an Oktoberfest had a baby, this would be it. Tastes like a dark beer, but drinks like a Pilsner.

American Red Ale (Spring Seasonal 12' & 13')

This American-style ale pours a deep ruby-red color. The liberal use of special malts produces an unmistakable caramel flavor, while American west-coast hops provide a pronounced hop flavor and aroma. Medium bodied and perfectly balanced between malt and hops, this is a real crowd pleaser.

German Hefeweizen (Summer Seasonal 12')

Hefe means "yeast" in German, while weizen is "wheat", so loosely translated, this is an unfiltered wheat beer in authentic German style. The German wheat beer yeast strain provides most of the flavor and aroma, producing pronounced banana and clove notes, while the wheat malt is sharp and bready. This crisp, refreshing ale is perfect for summer drinking.

American Wheat (Summer Seasonal 13' & 14')

This American style wheat beer is clean, refreshing, unfiltered, and slightly citrusy. American wheat beers are less spicy and somewhat more palatable than German versions, making them a perfect compliment for summer foods such as grilled fish, salads, or fresh mozzarella. Sounds like a great way to spend a weekend summer day!

Coriander Ale (Fall Seasonal 12' & 13')

Inspired by a recipe from brewing legend Charlie Papazian, this unfiltered, medium bodied amber ale has brown hues, solid hop bitterness, and is infused with one pound of freshly crushed coriander seeds per barrel. This truly unique beer bursts with flavor and is not to be missed! 5.6%ABV

Octoberfest Lager (October Seasonal)

Originally brewed in 1810 to commemorate the marriage of the Crown Prince of Bavaria, this orange-amber lager is one of the world's most popular seasonal beer styles. Sweet, lightly toasted maltiness dominates over a clean, smooth hop bitterness. This beer is perfect for fall consumption, so it's no wonder that over 10 million pints are consumed over the course of the sixteen-day Octoberfest celebration held annually in Munich!

Smoked Porter (Winter Seasonal 12' & 13')

This full bodied dark ale was brewed with seven different malt varieties, but most notably consists of Bamberg-style Rauchmalz (smoked malt). Rauchmalz is kilned just like any other kind of brewer's malt, except that the kiln is packed with beechwood. The smoke carries into the malt, and later into the finished beer, producing a unique libation that quite literally smells like a campfire. As the days get shorter and the temperature gets colder, this beer is sure to stick to your ribs and keep you warm. 5.5% ABV

Oatmeal Stout (Winter Seasonal 13')

This dark stout ale was brewed with plenty of caramel malts and roasted barley, giving it full-bodied goodness. The addition of flaked oats in the mash doesn't contribute much to flavor, but instead provides a distinct mouthfeel that can be described as slick or smooth. Dark beer lovers, this one was brewed for you! 5.6% ABV

ESB (Extra Special Bitter)

ESBs are classic English ales that have been around for centuries and are actually precursors to modern American Pale Ales. BBC's version is a bit darker than most, pouring a deep amber color, but the hops are really what shine in this beer. Over 1 lb per barrel of East Kent Golding hops were used to produce a distinctly English, pungently floral aroma and flavor profile, making this beer a joy to drink. 5.4%ABV

German Bock Lager (Spring Seasonal 13')

Traditional German Bocks were originally brewed in the town of Einbeck, which, over the course of several generations, evolved and lended its name to the beer itself, Ein Bock (transaltion--a billy goat). To this day, goats often appear on the labels of these beers. Due to their high gravity and caloric content, bocks are historically consumed my German monks during Springtime months to get them through long periods of fasting. Brevard Brewing Company's bock is brown in color, full bodied, high in alcohol content, lightly hopped, and extremely malty. Enjoy. 6.8% ABV
