Crosby's Kitchen & CocktailBeer

A Real Nice Surprise draws inspiration from two holiday classics – eggnog and National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation. When our brewers sat under the train tracks sipping on the infamous, and high-octane, Tom & Jerry the team knew the flavors of eggnog, rum and bourbon needed to find a home in a holiday beer. A Real Nice Surprise starts life as a rich porter brewed with chocolate malts that is then aged in a combination of rum, bourbon, and brandy barrels for two months resulting in a smooth, creamy beer that you will love. So curl up next to a fire, have a sip, and enjoy the holiday spirit because this beer is a surprise…A Real Nice Surprise.

Brewed at Huisbrouwerij Sint Canarus in Deinze-Gottem, Belgium. This black saison carries qualities similar to a stout with light roast and burnt sugar flavors, spiced with Rose Hips, Hibiscus, & Schisandra berries.

India Pale Ale brewed up with flavor beats of dank baritones, sticky-icky pine and citrusy high notes for a symphonic hop explosion.

A tiny beautiful something showcases a new hop variety, El Dorado. We started playing around with this hop last year. We brewed a pilot batch with this hop exclusively and one with it blended with some of our other favorite Northwest varieties. In the end, we decided that the El Dorado had such a unique and interesting character on its own, so we decided to brew it as a “single hop” pale ale. The aroma and flavor offer intense candied orange and citrus zest. A touch of flaked oats provide a rounded, silky mouthfeel. And like our other hoppy offerings, tiny was brewed to finish dry and clean.

21 IBU. Uses Cascade and Falconer’s Flight hops. Slightly hazy gold with a thin frothy head. Nose is toasted coriander and honey sweetness mellowed by Citrus Hops and a pleasant yeast character. Taste is clean and hoppy accented by toasty coriander and herbal/citrusy rose hip. Finish is very clean with hints of rosehip and coriander.

English ingredients for a German recipe? You betcha! The softness of the English ingredients with the clean crispness of the German yeast and lagering will have you running north of I-10 for all of your Bock needs.

Red Brick Brown Ale is the beer that launched our brewing legacy in 1993. It was inspired by the malty brews of England, but we gave it an American sized attitude. Deep copper gives way to an off-white head when poured into a glass, offering aromas of sweet malt, caramel, and almond. Our Brown Ale is surprisingly light bodied, which plays well with the sweet caramel, fresh pecan, and bread notes you discover on each sip. Brown Ale is a great beer to enjoy outdoors on a clear autumn afternoon.

The tale of Captain Ahab and Moby Dick is an American classic and so is this West Coast IPA. 2-Row and rye give this beer its yellow straw color while Amarillo, Cascade, Citra and Chinook provide its intense hop flavor and aroma. Spoiler alert: We are letting you in on a little secret, Captain Ahab’s demise all began because he had to have “Another Hoppy Ass Beer.”

Bright American Pale Ale aged on Spanish Cedar. This beer has a Citrus Hop profile that finishes clean and dry thanks to the good wood.

A57N Alt has a full body and a mild hop assertiveness from the delicate noble hops and German Cara malts. Winner of the Gold Medal in 2007.

Our AARGHtoberfest! is a rich and toasty lager with a color reminiscent of the fallen leaves of October. A subdued earthy hop character helps to balance this malt forward beer. This beer is only available from August through September.
