Crosby's Kitchen & CocktailBeer

The Duvil in Miss Jones is a Sour Belgian Golden Ale. Brewed as an homage to the world-class Duvel, but with a twist, as in a lemony acidity that provides just enough tartness without being overbearing. The tart notes also help mask the alcohol, at 8.5% ABV. We cellared this brew for 2 years after bottling, releasing it at the Winter Solstice Celebration this past December 2014.

Ebel's Weiss beer is a very traditional German Hefeweizen that is naturally unfiltered. It has wonderful malt sweetness and a soft aroma of clove, vanilla, and banana. This deep golden colored weiss will make you think you are in Bavaria.

Released 2010

Burgundy wax.

This is a three liter bottle from a single barrel of Eclipse aged in Elijiah Craig 18 year barrels. This barrel was known as the "Epic Barrel". Only three of the three liter bottles were made.

Eisbock 28 is an ice processed winter warmer. This rich lager is aged for months at temperatures well below freezing and is a deep gold color and has a smooth and malty flavor with bittersweet complexities. This highly unique beer is unlike any other and to our knowledge Redhook is the only American Brewer currently brewing it. This traditional winter beer is very drinkable, even with its high alcohol content and is perfect before or after dinner.

Near the end of last year, we began laying down a funky beat. One of four beats, to be precise. And this Friday, the final beat drops with the fourth and final installment in our Elements of Funk series - Elements of Funk: Brettanomyces Lambicus. The Elements of Funk series was designed to showcase the similarities and differences between four strains of Brettanomyces, which the cool kids call “brett”. To accomplish this, we started with a base beer that took inspiration from Saison de Lente, using a fairly simple malt bill, noble hops and familiar house yeast to leave the path to funk as unobstructed as possible. Following the base beer’s fermentation in stainless steel, we then sent one quarter of it to the brite tank at a time. Each quarter was inoculated and separately bottled with a different strain of Brettanomyces: lambicus, drei, claussenii and brux. While all four variants appear similar to the naked eye (and bottles should be chilled and opened with caution,) the nuances are many.

Originally a collaboration with 4 Hands called Square Grouper, now brewed by Pipeworks and called Emerald Grouper. Our buddies at Four Hands in St. Louis rang us up a couple of months ago with a proposition. They wanted to brew an Imperial IPA and they just happened to have a bunch of Simcoe, Citra, Galaxy and Mosaic hops. We though that sounded like a pretty good idea so they came on up here to Chicago and we did the damn thing. We also added 60 lbs of honey at the end of the boil. The beer that then flowed out of the tanks and into your bottles is a dank symphony of tropical fruit, citrus, mango, pine, fresh cut grass and stone fruit. This was only a single batch and may not make another appearance for a long time. Drink early Drink often.
