Crosby's Kitchen & CocktailBeer

The California Common is a unique 100% American style lager.It’s usually brewed with a special strain of lager yeast that works better at warmer temperatures. Mildly fruity with an assertive hop bitterness.

Not your typical Dunkelweizen! This innovative ale is made with an English yeast whose lightly fruity notes complement the rich cocoa flavors from the roasted malts resulting a balanced and surprisingly drinkable beer.

Dry traditional mead from Mendicino Forest honey.

The beer that launched Ballast Point. Our California Kolsch is a rich golden brew, crafted with aromatic German hops and rounded out with a blend of American and Munich malts. While it’s hopped like a lager, we ferment it like an ale to create a smooth, bright taste that has just a hint of fruit and spice. It’s extremely drinkable, like a Kolsch should be, yet complex, like a good craft beer demands.

Spring! A time of renewal. Renew your taste buds with our “California style” Spring Beer, a unique fusion of a hoppy wheat beer brewed with a blended fermentation of Belgian and American yeast. Pours a hazy gold with a thick, white head. Floral hop aromas abound, complemented by the taste of tangy wheat and spicy Belgian yeast notes with a bitter, slightly sweet, bready finish. For our first Seasonal 4-pack, we decided to create something one of a kind. This beer was fermented in two separate batches, one using a traditional American Ale yeast and the other using a Belgian Wit yeast. The two finished beers were then blended to create an extra layer of complexity and flavor. We also used two new hop varieties: Zythos & Calypso. These hops add a wonderful tropical fruit and pear character to our CSB.

Great. Another West Coast IPA. Nope. This here is 16 ounces of pure CalifornIPA. This dude is distinct and diverse, just like the Golden State. We’re talking about a plethora of west coast malts and California yeast being handcrafted to create this California-style IPA. At 6.9% ABV, this one is for all of the dudes and dudettes across California – no matter where you like to kick it.

Brewed by warrior poets, Call The Banners is a Scottish 70 Schilling Ale that is made with Scottish yeast and bittered with Mt. Hood hops and dandelion greens. Light-bodied, with caramel and toffee notes, the tannins from the dandelions meld with a hint of smoke at the finish. In order to protect the realm from invading hordes, alliances were formed between houses. If your neighbor was in need, your house banner was called upon, leaving your home unprotected. When the banners are called will you answer the summons and stand in arms with your neighbor?

Calleigh’s is a classic dry Irish stout made to drink all afternoon. One sip will reveal light pale ale flavors with just a hint of caramel. The black malt adds a dark color and a slight aroma of coffee. Finished with a blend of American and British hops, you have a stout that is crisp and easy to drink. Calleigh’s is truly a light beer, only dark!

Full of esters and light bodied, Calling Jack Weiss is carefully crafted to celebrate the summer solstice. Enjoy a glass of this bright, crisp, fruity beer in honor of our brewer’s favorite band and rock on!

Earthy, grassy and herbal flavors shine thanks to copious amounts of locally picked Cascade, Columbus and Galena hops. A soft bitterness that rolls off the tongue balanced by malt richness, Calliope is the embodiment of autumn.

A lower octane pale ale that leans towards a copper color and gushes Falconer and Citra hops.

A coffee ale with a touch of vanilla. Calm Before the Storm came from a quest for a warm weather alternative to our Victory at Sea Imperial Porter. Like its more robust cousin, we infuse a punch of flavor using cold brewed Caffé Calabria coffee and a hint of vanilla. But this time, we added it to a lighter-bodied golden cream ale. The end result is a surprisingly bright, coffee-forward beer that’s perfectly refreshing.

A crisp and refreshing lighter summer offering, this Kolsch-style beer is golden in color, light-bodied and a perfect remedy for hot weather.

This style is a step down from an IPA (India Pale Ale) with regard to hops. We "dry hop" Calusa with a charge of fresh hops while still fermenting. Not boiling this hop addition allows volatile aroma properties normally boiled off quickly to remain and infuse without adding bitterness. The result is a wonderful hop aroma and flavor. We modestly bitter the brew with classic citrusy American hop varieties appropriate for the style without the bitterness cloying your palate.
