Crosby's Kitchen & CocktailBeer

No Joka Mocha is a coffee oatmeal chocolate stout that is decidedly weighted towards the coffee end of the taste spectrum. This brew has a blackish pour with a creamy tan head. Solid coffee aroma greets the nose with deep rich malts in the background. It has a medium body that is slightly sweet, light chocolate and finishes smooth with the oatmeal. Our special blend of Blue Batak Sumatran Coffee used in this brew comes to us specially roasted from our good friend Woody at Finer Grind Coffee Roasters. Together with Woody, we combined our passion for beer and coffee together to craft this seasonal brew.

Saison with Michigan hops, raspberry puree and lime peel. Made for Gabe Fletcher from Anchorage Brewing Company's 40th birthday.

'No Manners' Smoked Stout has a rich yet well balanced malt front, abruptly followed by an intense smokiness derived from the intriguing German smoked malt.

IPA featuring Nelson Sauvin hops.

"Make me an Amber!" A friend of mine mentioned this to me a year or two back and these words kicked into motion a series of recipe attempts and batches that would ultimately result in our house amber. American Amber is a very broad and forgiving style that really serves as a "catch-all" category between pale ales and porters that doesn't include I.P.A.s and ryes. Ambers can range dramatically in bitterness and alcohol volume and even in color. That makes for a very broad palette for a brewer. My goal with our amber was to capture a beautiful reddish hue that reflected the copper that this city is famous (or perhaps infamous) for. I also wanted to create a flavor profile that challenged people with hints of that transition from a pale ale into a porter. So, our amber features a strong 2 row backing with plenty of roasted malts giving not only that beautiful color but the toffee and caramel flavor that suggests that there's a porter in there just begging to get out. All we needed was a name to bring the amber home. We struggled for some time, taking suggestions from the owners, friends and of course the young lady who recommended we build the amber in the first place. Ultimately, as it so often does, the name presented itself. We were struck. We couldn't come up with a name and we had a beer ready to go. Somebody in a meeting mentioned that we were "Up the crick" if we couldn't put together a decent name. "No Paddle" was born. We hope you enjoy our amber.

Our "Session IPA" bursts open with aromatics of fresh citrus fruits, ripened melon and a distinctive floral bouquet. Weaved carefully under the hop bitterness lies a light, semi-sweet malt body, that finishes in a crisp N' clean fashion.

An oatmeal and coffee stout made with Carrboro Coffee Roasters beans. Silky smooth and roasty

Brett Barrel-Aged Sour Stout No Rest For The Wicked is a distant cousin of No Sleep Till Brooklyn, a collaboration beer we did with Jeppe of Evil Twin/Tørst almost a year and a half ago. Because we love the interplay of tart and roasty so much, we decided to brew a similar style, this time with a revamped malt body and more bugs! Yes, that’s right, this stout is a veritable mecca for the sorts of yummy bacteria that make you pucker. With strong notes of cocoa, delicious undertones of sour cherry, complex brett-derived aromatics, and a 6 month power nap, this beer is one of those perfect sippers we wish we could keep all to ourselves. Made in small batches, expect only limited amounts to grace our taps.

Didrik Crappe was a Copenhagen lad who set sail to Tranquebar in the early 19th Century to establish a herring meal factory in this exotic Danish colony. He suffered terribly from indigestion because of his mother’s home cooking, esp. her extremely spicy chicken curries that he was forced to eat several times a week. Some historians maintain that the whole business of founding a herring meal factory was just an excuse to get away from his mother’s pots and pans. There is a legend saying that Didrik posted himself in the bow of the clipper carrying him away from his beloved hometown, and exclaimed "No more rice and curry for this fair Dane!" But the story has a happy end. Thanks to the fine lager brewed locally in Tranquebar, Didrik’s indigestion was cured, and in fact he soon established his own brewery out there, creating a beer so tasty that rumors of it flew all the way back to Denmark. Perhaps the herring meal was the secret ingredient that distinguished Didrik’s brew from all others. Anyhow, soon clippers carrying nothing but barrels of his product were leaving Tranquebar for Copenhagen every day of the week. Thus the Indian Pale Lager was born. A crisp and dry Pale Lager with a base of only pilsener malts. Hopped – and dry-hopped – with Amarillo, Cascade and Citra. No rice or curry was added.

Our rendition of a light Pale Ale with a hardy hop-backbone. Brewers tend to have a lot of grain sitting around, and without much reason at all a pinch of rye ended up in the mash-ton. An intuitive leap at the time, that landed with just a hint of spice.

Medium-body, citrus/crisp Cascade hop/regional angle – Citrus and resin Refreshing with a sharp, crisp bite Northwest Pale Ale – meaning bold

No Soul starts off rich and round with a strong taste of Morello cherries, accompanied with bold aromatics of cranberry and citrus. The Sweet body of No Soul is balanced by the tartness created from the kettle souring, yet finishes dry with light notes of mocha coffee and hints of orange. Brewed only on Mondays for extra sourness, by those with red beards.

Ne vous laissez pas induire en erreur: Aucune allusion à la police de caractère, et il n’y a pas de houblon Tahoma dans cette bière! En fait, après avoir fait des tests avec ce houblon, Éloi, le maître brasseur, était si peu convaincu qu’il a décidé de brasser cette Pale ale fermière avec tout, sauf du Tahoma… Le nom était chouette par contre, donc pourquoi pas une « no tahoma »? Brassée avec de l’orge et de l’avoine, cette bière combine des notes maltées sobres à des parfums exotiques conférés par un houblonnage à froid à l’aide d’houblons aromatiques comme l’amarillo et le Sorachi Ace. À boire avec votre traitement de texte préféré, idéalement word perfect, à 10 degrés celsius.

In honor of Patrick Henry, a founding father and lawyer that denied the King of England the power to veto American laws. This English Brown Ale is filled with a variety of European malts giving it a great caramel, nutty, toffee flavor with a touch of chocolate and even a hint of espresso.
