The World Experiencer - 5.3% Pale Ale. This West Coast style pale ale was brewed with barley and wheat and hopped with tons of Motueka and Riwaka. The Motueka and Riwaka hop combo add to the growing list of reasons why you might want to move to New Zealand. This beer has those classic West Coast style notes of citrus and delicate pine, but really pops with lemon/lime, white grape, kumquat and tamarind, and just enough clean malt flavor to hold it all together. Really beautiful beer, everyone should be drinking more pale ales.
The Visitor - 6.8% Hazy IPA. This hazy thriller was brewed with barley, wheat, and oats; and hopped with tons of Strata and Chinook (and a sprinkle of Sabro). It pours with a respectable opacity, and really jumps out of the glass with some creepy tropical aromatics. We’re getting notes of island time gummy bears, ripe kiwi berries, juicy kumquats, cold mango nectar, and a plethora of miscellaneous citrus.
Merriment - 7.2% Our annual holiday IPA. Brewed in the West Coast style with good barley and adequate crystal malts, and joyfully hopped with lots of Chinook, Cascade, and Centennial. Notes of good friends and caring about life, strawberry candy with strawberry wrappers, classic citrus/pine dialectics, sneaky Twizzlers, cold apple pie, a dry maltiness, and a couple smashed grapefruits.
Electric Rain - 4.3% Baby IPA. A fun little hoppy bo brewed with wheat and barley, and generously hopped with Citra and Sabro. We’re getting fresh fruity notes of homemade pineapple tepache, cold mango nectar, modern marijuana, vanilla cream, and maybe an almond croissant.
Dance Money - 6.5% Stout. We love our pale little lagers, our delicate saisons, and our light colored IPAs, but to be totally honest, the water here in Ambler seems perfect for these big roasty stouts. The hard water we have really accentuates the lovely chocolatey and roasted notes from the dark British malts we use. We brewed this one with a hearty mix of dark British malts and some malted oats, hopped it with Chinook and Columbus (one of our favourite old school combos), and fermented it with our trusty British ale yeast. We taste rich notes of chocolate covered raisins, figs, plums, farm made chocolate milk, a whiff of orange, cold brew coffee, and some roasted chicory.
Solaire Reserve - 5% Foeder Saison. Every brewery has a flagship 750ml Green Bottle, and Solaire Reserve is ours! Solaire has evolved with us over the years, starting in garages and basements (brewed with herbs and spices in some early iterations!), honing in at our original location over 10 years, and coming into its most recent incarnation at our new production brewery. This latest move has brought the addition of foeder fermentation to Solaire’s repertoire. Solaire is brewed entirely with @DeerCreekMalt spelt and barley, hopped entirely with Hallertau Hersbrucker, and is presently fermented in an oak foeder with our Foraged Yeast Culture. The foeder retains a healthy population of our mixed culture as well, so current batches of Solaire come out of the gate with a balanced fermentation profile of wild yeast, brettanomyces, and bacteria.
Solaire has notes of clean vanilla oak, tamarind soda, lemon verbena, anise hyssop, Juicy Fruit gum, cracked white pepper, a gentle acidity, and some peach sweet tarts. Solaire is a special one we’ve always been super proud of 🙂
Dry Hopped Moeder Seizoen - 6.5% Foeder Saison. We took a portion of Moeder Seizoen out of the foeder, and conditioned it on some Motueka and Saaz. There’s some really wild biotransformation that happens when mature funky barrel aged beer sits on fruity dry hops. The dry hop is giving notes of aromatic geranium, rose, and floral lime/citrus, layered on top of that big ripe peach/apricot note of the base Moeder Seizoen, with a fruity and funky dry tartness, and lots of good vibes.

Dark Lager - 4.8% This is a really pretty dark lager. We brewed it with our favourite German barley and a special mix of dark and roasted malts, and hopped it with the finest European hops. We’re getting notes of baking with chocolate, grape “flavor,” a whiff of some toasted hazelnuts, classy amber lagers, and an impeccably balanced hop flavor. It goes down nice!
House Lager - 4.5% We love this beer so dang much. This one features a lovely base of German Pilsner malt and layers and layers of Saphir and Saaz hops. Fermented slow and cold. We’re tasting notes of barley crackers, lemon verbena, when herbs get that citrus flavor, sparkling pear cider, apple strudel, and drifting clouds to carry you to a happy place.
Deciduous - 5.4% A beautiful little smoked lager that is really perfect for this cooler weather. We brewed this one with German pilsner and Munich malts and an appropriate heap of smoked barley. It was hopped with Tettnanger and Hersbrucker and fermented slowly and coldly. We find notes of scratchy sweaters by the campfire, apples cooking, dried herbs hanging, pancakes with crispy edges, and a few peppercorns.

Best Bitter - 4.2% This is the kind of beer where you can eat the whole loaf. Brewed with quality British Maris Otter, two types of Crystal malt, and hopped with the classiest East Kent Goldings. We’re tasting lovely notes of fresh homemade wheat bread, cottage marmalade, well seasoned firewood, craisins and dried cherries, classic London-style yeast character, and a couple digestive biscuits. Get moreish!
Poor Yorick - 3.5% You might call Poor Yorick a dark mild, you also might not. We don’t call it much of anything aside from one of our favorites. It’s brewed with Maris Otter and a thoughtful blend of dark British malts, and gently hopped with Fuggles. It has notes of homemade chocolate candies, a caramel apple, being close to someone drinking coffee, dried dates, a whiff of vanilla sugar, and some nice dark bread..
Stone Flower - 4% Munich Pub Ale A superb little Fall pubber. Brewing our Festbier really got us thinking about using more Munich malt as the colder months begin to roll in. We brewed this one with 100% Munich malt and hopped it with Fuggles and dash of Styrian Wolf.
This pub ale presents a gorgeous golden honey hue and wafts with a nose of freshly baked bread and candy. Beautiful notes of dark berry jams atop medium setting toast, dark chewy candies, and those classic British esters.
