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!
Mundo Especial
Mexican-Style Lager | 4.5%
Mundo Especial is a crisp and refreshing light Mexican-style lager, brewed to be a perfectly balanced thirst quencher.
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.
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.
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.
Obsidian Castle
Dark Lager | 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.
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.
Chronicle
Stout | 7.2%
Chronicle delivers a smooth, roasted malt character that is reminiscent of rich chocolate, caramel and coffee. Sit back, take a sip and enjoy this well balanced stout.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Power Boots 2026
Black India Pale Ale | 6.3%
Rock on into this deep mahogany Black IPA where bittersweet chocolate meets a vibrant burst of citrus, tropical, and stone fruits for a seriously powerful and fun flavor punch!
Brewed in collaboration with the Pink Boots Society. https://www.pinkbootssociety.org/
Cloud Nine
Wheat Beer | 5.0%
