Crosby's Kitchen & CocktailBeer

So much in brewing is looked at through the eyes of history. With centuries of beer making behind us, it is impossible to ignore traditions. If we did, we’d be doing a disservice to the heritage of our trade. In Germany, brewers have made “bock” beers for hundreds of years. These are dark, malty, lightly hopped beers first brewed in the 14th century in the town of Einbeck. Funny thing about this town’s name – when the style was adopted by brewers in Munich, their Municher accents pronounced “Einbeck” as “ein Bock” which is German for “Billy Goat.” True story. To this day, many visual puns using goats have adorned labels of Bock beers. We’ve enlisted the creative talents of Nate Duval to illustrate “Goat Boy.” The conversation went something like, “Nate, we need a Goat Boy.” He replied, “Goat boy? I can do that.” Our in-house designer (and another guy named Nate) filled in the rest of the graphics. And thus, the continued tradition of goat iconography on bottle labels.

This hoppy American pale ale has a complex American hop character. Its bold flavor comes from generous portions of hops, balanced with just the right malt background. At its debut at the Blue Moose Café and Brew pub, a colorful citizen sang a song he created about the Palomino Motel, (the beer's original namesake). The beer and the song were a big hit.

“Pale Goat Rancher” is a German style Pale bock or Maibock: It has a golden color and has a pleasing malt flavor with a touch of sweetness.

This German Lager is made with 9 different specialty malts including caramel/chocolate/and toasted malts to give it an authentic hearty dark amber lager taste and is than scattered with German Floral hops that balance the malty sweetness. The yeast enhances the maltiness of the brew and the extended cold conditioning time makes this bier smooth and drinkable as ever. A flavorful German lager that makes for the perfect turkey beer! Gobble, Gobble!

Gobsmacked is British slang which literally translates to mean extremely surprised or astonished - and that's what we are trying to achieve with this brew! Gobsmacked Imperial IPA exudes peach notes in the nose, with a cane sugar sweetness in support. Tangerine comes through in the mid palette, with grapefruit in the finish. A smooth, soft and juicy body provides balance in the finish. Gobsmacked Imperial IPA clocks in at 10.0% ABV and 80 IBUs.

Don't fight it, Spite It! Out God Damn Pigeon Porter was brewed with our friends from across the pond in mind. We use traditional English Amber malt, but being the unruly Americans we are, we put our own happy twist on things. One of our favorite hops, Simcoe, was added late in the bail. This delightful porter will take your mind off the everyday nuisances of living in a big city, especially those f-ing pigeons!

A Citra based hop beast, we added massive amounts of hops in the boil followed by several rounds of dry hopping. We aged the beer on charred ash wood to round out the mouthfeel. The result is an aromatic Imperial IPA with a touch of revolutionary ambers.

A light golden ale brewed with a touch of rye for a smooth creamy body. English hops including the aptly named 'Sovereign' create a subtle citrus fruit aroma.

Goedenacht identifies vintage vinifera flavors from an intrepid, but yet delicate integration of constituent parts of a mead, cider and wild beer. Young, Goedenacht is sweet with delicate, almost cider like characteristics. However, during aging (roughly 6 months to 1 year), the brettanomyces and farmhouse strains used during fermentation begin to become more prominent with wild characteristics, along with increasing levels of tartness.

When this brew first came out of the tanks our brewer took a sip. Then downed some more. He put on his glasses, tilted his head and said "Damn, that's a Goggle Fogger!". The "Hefe" prefix means "with yeast" which gives this unfiltered wheat beer a somewhat cloudy or "foggy" appearance. Light aromas of wheat, bubblegum, clove and spice. Very refreshing with light hop bitterness and flavors of wheat, spice, bubblegum and hints of clove.

A malty, full bodied amber ale that, with the help from 75lbs of toasted coconut, creates a beautiful, caramel soaked bridge from our palm tree dotted coastline to the sun soaked islands of Hawaii.

Would you like a gold beer with no rough edges, a smooth delivery and a delicious, clean finish? If so, this is your beer. This is a ‘Session beer’ traditionally consumed steadily, by the pint, over a session or period of hours. If you like to drink several beers in a sitting, this beer works well.

Gold Coast Blonde is light in malt and hops and of course, golden in color. A great choice if you�re looking for true American beer flavor with a bit more malt than a light beer has to offer.
