Glass Castle
Pilsener | 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!
Umlaut Love
Kölsch | 5%
Using a traditional Kölsch yeast and brewing techniques, Umlaut Love pays homage to Cologne’s storied Kölsch legacy. Umlaut Love’s delicate body, mild fruit flavors, and subtle white wine finish from the unique Kölsch yeast make it a perfect summertime beer.
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!
Amber Castle
Amber Lager | 5.0%
Polotmavý (translating to half dark) is a Czech-Style amber lager that is malt-driven with a hop character that varies from low to very significant. Our Polotmavý has a medium hop character that is driven by the maltier notes, bready and caramel sweetness with a slightly dry finish to it. Chestnut in color with dry, sweet, maltier flavors to match.
Oktoberfest
Vienna Style Lager | 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!
Duke of Warrenton
Porter | 5.8%
Rich black in color – this standard porter is chocolate forward with plenty of notes of roastiness and maltiness. The chocolate sweetness cuts through the bitterness to make this beer not too sweet, not too bitter, but just right!
Reeves’ Ordinary
English-Style Bitter | 3.5
A malt-forward, biscuity session ale that is a must-try for British beer lovers.
Dr. Juicy
India Pale Ale | 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.
House Kat
Pale Ale | 4.8%
We teamed up with our friends at Motorkat to brew this well-balanced pale, featuring soft floral notes and biscuity toastiness, then finishing with a touch of stone fruit sweetness. Enjoy it with other cool cats.
Cosmic Dawn
West Coast India Pale Ale | 6.8%
At the dawn of the Craft Beer Revolution brewers shocked drinkers with highly hopped and bitter West Coast India Pale Ale. Dry-hopped with Comet, Cosmic Dawn is hoppy with a dry-yet-malty finish to keep you coming back for more.
Nebulous Limits
Hazy India Pale Ale | 5.8
A burst of lime zest, bright citrus, and stone fruit flavors, with hints of mango and pineapple, characterize our medium-bodied Hazy IPA, finishing with subtle white grape notes.
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.
Beyond the Gnome World
Saison | 4.9%
Silver Branch will stop at nothing as we sail to new horizons in search of beer excellence! Beyond the Gnome World is a classical saison, brewed with pilsner malt, Saaz hops, and a blend of Saison yeasts from two Belgian breweries! 2020 GABF Gold Medal Winner in the Classic Saison category.
Gnome De Plume
Wit | 4.5%
A soft citrusy, refreshing Belgian-style classic with a top secret recipe – for gnome eyes only!
Gnome De Guerre
Tripel | 9%
The gnomes have taken the high seas! Grab a Gnome de Guerre and pour this golden treasure into your favorite (drinking) vessel. Born of a traditional Belgian yeast, and boasting a cache of Czech hops with a touch of lingering sweetness, our Belgian-style tripel is a treat for any tankard.
Fletcher’s Finest
Nut Brown Ale | 4.8%
Fletcher’s Finest is a balanced brown ale. Its nutty, toffee aroma with toasted malt finish hits the mark every time.
The Butterfly Effect
Hazy India Pale Ale | 6.2%
The Butterfly Effect is the second release to our 4 part Hazy IPA series. This is a 2 hop addition hazy, meaning we exclusively used Citra and Mosaic throughout the brewing and dry-hopping process. Citra brings bright citrusy notes in the aroma and flavor such as grapefruit, lime, lemon and orange. Mosaic’s profile compliments it by hinting fruity notes of blueberry, tropical notes of stone fruits and a touch of pine. It’s a full body Hazy with a soft mouthfeel on the palate.
