Inspired by 4 Beer Traditions

We brew and serve excellent beer inspired by European and American beer traditions. These traditions — Belgium, the British Isles, Central Europe, and the Americas — provide the inspiration for our four flagship beers.

Year Round

Glass Castle

Pilsner

ABV 5.0%

Flavorful and yet so crush-able. The delicate balance between bready malt and spicy and grassy Czech hops make it obvious why this beer inspired the lager revolution. Glass Castle is Silver Branch’s holy grail—getting this elusive style right reflects the passion we bring to the craft and science of brewing. Every time you have one you’ll wish you had another!

Dr. Juicy

IPA

6.9%

After earning his M.D. and Ph. D, Juicy turned to his life’s true work: having fun in the sun and spreading good vibes! Like a beer-loving Midas, he can’t help but transform everything he touches, leaving Gemütlichkeit and chill goodwill in his wake. Dr. Juicy’s orders: treat yourself to a tropical breeze of citrus aromas and notes of sweet, tangy fruit with this delicious juicy IPA.

Cloud Nine

Wheat Beer

5.0%

A traditional German Weizen yeast gives our wheat beer complex flavors of banana and clove, while finishing crisp and satisfying. Pour one today, and one tomorrow, to help you maintain your own personal Cloud Nine.

Seasonals

Golden Goat

Blonde Bock

6.6%

Many myths surround Bock—the malty lager whose name means “goat” in German. It’s certainly not the residue left at the bottom of the tank! And despite goats having become closely associated with Bock, it’s not named after a goat but rather the city of Einbeck. Lightly hopped with traditional Hallertau Mittelfrüh, personally, we believe Golden Goat is probably the G.O.A.T.

Landbier

Amber Lager

5.5%

In Franconia, Germany, most small country villages still have one or more breweries that make their own signature “Landbier” lager and serve it in picturesque biergartens. Our take on Landbier is a sessionable amber lager brewed with Munich and Pilsner malts and Saphir and Santiam hops. This is the lager you never knew you’ve always needed!

Mondo Mundo Mexican-Style Vienna Lager

Mondo Mundo

Mexican-Style Vienna Lager

ABV 5.6%

Malty, smooth, and refreshing, with the slightest hint of toast from the dark malt, Mondo Mundo is inspired by the golden lager 19th century immigrants brought back from Vienna to Mexico City, which developed into the dark Mexican version we know and love today.

Ümläüt Löve

Kölsch

5.0%

sing traditional Kölsch yeast and brewing techniques, ÜMLÄÜT LÖVË pays homage to Cologne’s storied Kölsch legacy. ÜMLÄÜT LÖVË’s delicate body, mild fruit flavors and subtle white wine finish make it the perfect summertime beer!

Silver Branch Brewing Heavenly Hell

Heavenly Hell

Helles

5.0

Hell means pale in German, and Helles is a generic term for the ubiquitous pale lager served in Munich. This easy-drinking, mildly malty, low-hop Helles is the quintessential lawnmower beer. It’s Heavenly way to beat the Hellish heat!

Oktoberfest

Märzen

5.6%

A classic reddish-amber Märzen long associated with celebrating the harvest season. Bready malt flavors with just enough spicy and floral hops for balance. Prost!

Lost In the Fog

Gold Rush Lager

5.1%

Conceived in the mists of the San Francisco Bay during the gold rush years, this warm-fermented lager is toasty, slightly fruity, and refreshing. Made with traditional Northern Brewer hops, two-row, crystal, and coffee malts, it’s a perfect balance of drinkability and complexity.

Obsidian Castle

Obsidian Castle

Tmavé Special

6.0%

Don’t let the black color fool you, this dark lager drinks smooth and malty, with mild chocolate notes rather than burnt or roasted malt flavors. A generous dose of Czech-grown Saaz hops round out the character of this stronger-than-average tmavé lezak.

Cosmic Frost

Double IPA

8.4%

It’s time for a big, brash IPA. Cosmic Frost delivers a punch of Centennial hop flavor. With this fruity-piney hop sensation in your glass, you’ll hope that spring never does arrive!

Amber Castle

Amber Lager

5.0%

Traditionally brewed with a decoction mash and naturally carbonated, our “half-dark” Czech-style Amber Lager is crisp and complex. Featuring a blend of spicy and floral Kazbek and Zatck hops with a rich and toasty malt character, this is the pivo you’ve been searching for.

Endless Odyssey

Imperial Coffee Stout

10.5%

Replete with rich malt and smooth roast flavors, Endless Odyssey is worth an epic voyage to the ends of the earth and back. Enjoy this dark and heady stout with your crew.

Abbeycadabra

Abbey-Style Single

6.3%

A blond, bitter, hoppy table beer that is very dry and highly carbonated. The aggressive fruity-spicy Belgian yeast character and high bitterness is forward in the balance, with a soft, supportive grainy-sweet malt palate, and a spicy-floral hop profile.

Squeegee Master Cherry Blossom

Fruited Gose

4.8%

Our tart gose with cherry and lime is the perfect companion to DC’s famous cherry blossoms. It features floral notes of hibiscus and elderflower that compliment the fruit and the touch or coriander and Himalayan pink salt.

Special Release

Eye of Nectaron

Eye of Nectaron

IPA

7%

The Fellowship of the Wandering Brewers came across a wonderful new hop from distant New Zealand, brimming with notes of peach, passionfruit, and pineapple. Using their favorite cool-fermenting yeast, they forged a crisp, clear and mildly bitter concoction that is explosively fruity.

Barrel-Aged Endless Odyssey

Barrel-Aged Imperial Stout

11.2

After relaxing over six months in A. Smith Bowman bourbon barrels, Endless Odyssey is ready to restart its epic journey. Transformed by time and oak, Barrel-Aged Endless Odyssey will bring you a sense of warmth and happiness.

Gilded Age

Golden Strong

9.2%

Golden Strong Ale was Belgium’s answer to beer drinkers’ increasing preference for golden lagers in the early 20th century. Lore has it that the brewer deemed his creation a “devil of a beer.” We consider it devilish for its combination of easy drinkability yet substantial strength. Gilded Age is beautiful subtle—fruity apple and pear notes from the yeast and just a tad spicy from the Saaz hops with a bit of alcohol warmth in the finish.

Nitro Chronicle

Nitro Foreign Extra Stout

7.2% ABV

We’ve nitro-canned our delicious Foreign Extra Stout for an even more luscious and smooth finish! Unrefined Panela sugar adds a toffee note to the smooth roast and rich malt reminiscent of dark chocolate, caramel, and coffee!

VESPUCCI CONNECTION 2

Dry Hopped Pilsner

5.4%

In 1501 Amerigo Vespucci determined that South America was a separate continent—a fact far more important than most beer lovers realize. Unwittingly, explorers played matchmaker between a cold-tolerant yeast from Patagonia and a long-established Eurasian brewing yeast. The result of this liaison was the yeast used to ferment lager beer. We brewed Vespucci Connection as a classic German Pilsner with a small dry hop to celebrate this most positive of intercontinental connections!

Train to Midnight

Baltic Porter

8.2%

In the dark of winter when days are short and nights are long, we thirst for something deep and satisfying. Our Baltic Porter delivers with a one-two punch of rich, mildly roasty malt and a warm, lingering finish. Grab some friends and climb aboard the Train to Midnight. It’s the most lovely of ways to while away the long, dark hours.

Sisyphus

The Oracle Speaks

Weizenbock

ABV 8.2% | IBU 22

The Oracle Speaks is a pale weizenbock with a deep orange hue and a rich, bready malt flavor from dark Munich and Vienna malts. Brewed with 50% pale wheat malt, this beer exudes huge banana and clove aroma and flavor backed up by rich malt flavor, with a mild alcohol warmth in the finish. Well-known commercial examples include Aventinus and Vitus. Fans of authentic German-style wheat beers will love this. The clove and banana flavors derive from the classic Weihenstephan 380 Hefeweizen yeast and precision temperature control. The hopping of the beer is very low–most of the balance for the malt comes from the slight bitterness and drying that comes from the high alcohol content. With very few readily available commercial examples this a truly unique beer.
