On-Tap

The lager for loggers big and small. Put an axe in one hand and a glass in the other. Safety not guaranteed.

Set in the harsh and unforgiving climate north of the Spine of the World, Icewind Dale is the wintry home to many monsters that thrive in the rugged, hostile terrain.  When an evil, sentient artifact surfaces and beckons armies of dangerous creatures to war against the few remaining villages and towns, who is going to save the day? A hero, of course. So grab your finest cape, a silly adventuring hat, and a few pints of this refreshing kolsch. Glory awaits.

Gargantuan. Tenacious. Foreboding. Ominous. Portentous. Really, there are endless ways to describe the terrible creature lurking beneath the waves. One sailor managed to escape a death defying encounter with the beast. Xavier Luis floated upon a raft of his splintered hull to tell the townsfolk that the legends were true. In the darkness, it waits. Many will pass unknowingly above it. Only some will survive.

Dimmsdale's Channel 7 News is helmed by the one and only Chet Ubetcha: handsome, muscular, and just a little on the short side. Thankfully, pours of the Czech dark lager named in his honor are a cool 16 ounces tall. Call on your fairy godparents, or Fairly Oddparents, and wish for as much Czech Ubetcha as you can get your hands on.

Making a special appearance is a classic and a fan favorite; Boba Fest is our festbier for the fall this year. Rugged and stoic, Boba could work for criminals across the galaxy and still steal the hearts of fans. Come on in and enjoy, but don't overdo it. He's no good to me dead.

Look to my coming, at first light on the fifth day. At dawn, look to the East. There, you'll see a lovely refreshing raspberry wheat ale, created for Middle Earth's greatest Istari. Whether you're brandishing Glamdring against a slew of orcs, riding Shadowfax into battle, or lambasting any fools of Tooks, be sure to charge up your powers with Gandalf the Wheat before finally sailing off into the Grey Havens.

A squadron of slight scientists surround a cycler, staring, studying, speculating. Years and years of hard work have built to this day. Suddenly: Eureka! They've found it. The answer to what makes them tick. The source of their every being. A prime pale ale with Citra and Simcoe that anchors the foundation of gnomic life. The one, the only, The Human G-Nome.

Upon a white warg rides Azog, the Pale Orc, father of Bolg, bane of Thror, and the Defiler of Moria. Upon a hazy NEIPA with Nelson Sauvin, Motueka, and Rakau hops rides a foamy head on its way to your glass. Trust us, between the two, you're absolutely getting the better end of the deal. The real Pale Orc is kind of a rough dude to hang out with. Our Pale Orc is likely to become your best friend.

No beards, no footwear, no problem. Harfoots (or Harfeet, if you're feeling froggy) are one of three hobbit ancestors alongside Stoors and Fallohides. But Harfeet are the only ones running their caravans through Middle Earth in The Rings of Power, so they get the honor of a Harfoot Hazy NEIPA, packed like their carts with Citra, Newzilla, and Nectaron hops. So get out of bed, leave your smial, and venture out into the world to enjoy this draught or you just might find yourself decaravanned.

When not hanging at Fabled Brew Works, Founder Matt Wright can be *ahem* found relaxing in a comfy chair while his sister Whitney chases her two kids all around the house. Eventually, all the attempted wrangling of the lovable little monsters reaches its breaking point, culminating in a shout of being at "My Wit's End"! What is one to do in times like these? Take a deep breath and a deeper drink of this papaya, guava, and mango fruited IPA. It's the tastiest tonic around to soothe the savage beasts.

Younger sister of Vi, League of Legend's Jinx comes cackling at you with joy in her heart and a shark gun on her shoulder. We can't be certain what her gun fires, but here's hoping it's a super soaker that shoots snifters of sour, specifically a peanut butter and grape jam berliner brewed with our broskies at Arkane Aleworks. Get Jinxed!

League of Legends has a pink haired pixie named Vi. Is it short for Victorious? Vision? The giant fist flying at your face should let you know: it's violence. Packing a punch of peanut butter and mixed berry jam flavor, this berliner brewed with the bunch at Arkane Aleworks will keep you full by serving you a heaping helping of Berry Knuckle Sandwich.

In the blue corner, weighing in at 224 1/2 pounds, from Louisville Kentucky: Muhammad Ali! And in the red corner, weighing in at 215 1/2 pounds, from Beaufort, South Carolina: Smokin' Joe Frazier! And in the...third corner weighing in at 5 or 16 ounces is a Mango Vanilla Berliner weisse! It may fight unorthodox, but the Thrilla in Mangnilla is a sure bet to KO the competition to be the undisputed champion of mango vanilla berliners.

If you see a plant growing into the clouds, it might just be worth climbing. Or maybe not, we really don't know how well you can climb or where it may take you.

Jumbee, jumbie, mendo, or chongo: whatever you call it, it's a demon and it's coming for you. You can ward him off by putting shoes outside your door, but you'd better drink some Jumbee Juice to steel your nerves just the same. It's to die for.

A little six year old boy in a devil's mask with blue lips, Shock is one third of the trio of trick-or-treaters tasks by Jack Skellington to kidnap the Sandy Claws. This Halloween, he's part of our trio of special sours. A caramel green apple Berliner weisse kicks off the chaos, sure to be followed by the other calamitous cohorts.

The middle of the trickster trifecta, Shock is a seven year old sporting a scowl on her witchy wardrobe, hiding her craftiness and cunning. In honor of her concocting the plot to get Sandy Claws, we've concocted a berliner weisse with sour patches of candies for this little kid. It's sure to send a shock to your tastebuds.

Five year old Barrel is the youngest of Oogie Boogie's henchmen, toting around a twirly swirly black and orange lollipop. We've taken his name to heart and conjured up a bourbon barrel aged pumpkin pie ice cream sour, satisfying for a sweet tooth and certain to put a big white Barrel-like smile on your face this Halloween.

Obscuring unique gifts from the Old Kingdom of Albion is an army of Demon Doors. Rare to find and even more rare to outwit, they are ancient oddities only few have the privilege of encountering. We've created a dark barleywine just as unique and crafty. With notes of dark fruit, toffee, and tobacco, Demon Door hides an absolute treasure trove of flavor.

The Forerunners knew of the risk of the Flood eons ago. So feared was the onslaught that the Halo Array was built to prevent it. But nothing can contain the Flood. It just keeps flowing, rushing over everything, encompassing all it touches, unstoppable, ceaseless, and exceedingly soggy. Somehow, after the worst subsided, an imperial peanut butter porter was left in the aftermath. Enjoy it while you can. Because the Flood can't be contained.

Twice slain and thrice born is Mordekaiser, "The Big Armored Meanie" from who knows where. As a brutal warlord who desires to conquer everything, it's a safe bet to think he likes fire. You know what goes great with fire? S'mores. So we've partnered with our less brutal buddies at Arkane Aleworks to devise a delicious drink with chocolate, marshmallow, and graham cracker as dark as the Dread Lord's dreams. A word of caution: avoid the Realm of Death.

Melkor, the most powerful of the Ainur, corrupted the creation of Middle Earth with his lust for power. Falling from the heavens to his fortress in Angband, he was forever after known as Morgoth the "Dark Enemy" or "Black Foe". Despite those nicknames, we actually got together with our friends at More Brewing to cook up his namesake stout: a mighty mash with toffee, cocoa, and coffee. As Morgoth stole the silmarils, this stout will steal your heart. Embrace the Lord of the Dark.

Recurring among many legends of a particular pixelated princess, the Great Deku Tree inexorably serves as the elder guardian of the forest and the various spirits within. Honorable and wise, this fatherly protector is entrusted to look after his realm and keep several precious artifacts out of the hands of those who may do evil. Our Deku Tree channels the essence of the forest guardian through a bold, imperial brown ale treated with walnuts and maple syrup. May he watch over this ale as it were one of his own.

Oooooh noooooo! It's Pumpkinhead! The spindly demonic monster, born from a corpse reanimated by Haggis the witch. You know, Pumpkinhead. From the movies! Okay, the monster may not have an actual pumpkin for a head, but the pumpkin ale with coffee known as Pumpkinhead has enough pumpkin packed in to make up for it. Grab a glass and wait in the graveyard. He'll be back before long.

Not to be confused with the one from the good book, this Habbakuk is Habbakuk Guava: an evil, cheating villain from the animated series Habacuc Pudding. Never heard of it? Not to worry. It's all very simple. There's no pudding in this session mead, but there is guava. And vanilla. And that's good enough for me.

Not Malfoy. Not the character from Xena: Warrior Princess. Not even the ancient Greek physician. This Draco is based on Sir Francis Drake. That's right, the guy from history. Turns out, he sort of invented the mojito and this is a mojito inspired session mead. Hence, Draco. How about you just order a few?

He's big. He's purple. He's possibly one of a unique species or an anthropomorphic taste bud. One thing's for sure: he's history's greatest monster. Grimace. Introduced in 1971 as 'Evil Grimace', a more fitting title there has never been. His whole thing was stealing milkshakes and Cokes. Well, not on our watch. This mead with Concord grapes should grab his attention. You can handle him. You've been trained for this.

Nightlock berries may be extremely poisonous, but thankfully they're also fictional. No dangerous berries go into this consumable concoction. But we did load it with decadent blueberries and maple syrup to make sure none of you go hungry during your games. After aging in a carefully selected bourbon barrel, this one will have you ready to stomp out the competition.

Attila ruled all of the Huns in the 400s. This traditional tonic rules all of the honeys for the rest of time. Attila the Honey: Raspberry Blossom uses a single type of honey, raspberry blossom, to create a throwback to the oldest alcoholic beverage in the world. With a clean and refreshing taste, Attila the Honey will conquer your tastebuds like Attila tried to conquer the world.

Khal is Dothraki for warlord, and Khal Drogo is "The Great Khal" - famed leader among the fierce tribe of savage, horse-riding warriors. He's quite the (rhu)barbarian, if you will. The last living dragon was named after him, and legend says he's never been defeated in battle. Speaking of unbeatable, this mead with strawberries and rhubarb is pretty hard to beat. Maybe the last dragon was named after this mead.

It may be better down where it's wetter, but don't just take it from me. Because it might not be true. In fact, the sea just might be filled to the brim with monsters: hulking and sometimes sulking. The ocean is no place for someone who can't match wits with a purple tentacled witch. Yet, only a poor unfortunate soul wouldn't brave the fathomless depths for a taste of this decadent mead with blueberry, banana, vanilla, cacao nibs, cinnamon, and maple. Go on, my dear sweet child.

The Beacons of Minas Tirith are lit! Gondor calls for aid! And Fabled Brew Works will answer! Rohan was busy. They've got a lot of horse stuff going on, cut them some slack. While we might not have the strength of Theoden's Rohirrim, we do have the strength of a mead with blackberry, walnut, and coconut. It probably won't hold off Saruman's forces, but it'll help you forget about all the fighting.

From 1940 until today, almost no villain has captured the imagination quite like The Joker. From Conrad Veidt in The Man Who Laughs to Joaquin Phoenix in Folie a Deux, countless actors have taken their turn bringing the Clown Prince of Crime to life on screen. We aren't actors, but we tried our hand at a purple mead built from blueberry, black currant, and vanilla to put our own spin on Gotham's giggling gangster. Why so serious? Relax and have a drink.

Because you know we're all about that bass, 'bout that bass, no heather. Oh, you thought we were saying bass like a guitar? No, no. Bass like basswood honey, the key ingredient to this traditional basswood honey mead. Although, we're still pronouncing it bass, like the string quartet instrument. You can say it however you like, so long as you don't cause any treble.
