Begyle Brewery

Begyle Batch 1000 – 12% ABV – Barrel Aged Barleywine Aged in Koval Distillery 4 Grain Whiskey Barrels 
Just in time for our 10th anniversary, we’re proud to say that this is our 1000th batch of beer. So, if you feel a little extra warm and fuzzy inside, it’s because we’re raising a glass to you, dear beer-drinker.
 
Begyle Oktoberfest – 5.5% – German Style Marzen Lager
Dark Munich, Pilsner, Vienna, and caramel wheat malts result in aromas of caramel and raisin. Flavors of toasted bread, biscuit, and caramel lead into a clean, full finish. It’s so perfectly fall, you’ll forget pumpkin spice was ever even a thing.

11am • Lime Boat Shoes & Coconut When Pineapples Fly
3pm • Cinnamon Vanilla When Peaches Fly & Pumpkin Spice Snooze Button
6pm • Vanilla Rye Snooze Button & Old Fashioned Bourbon Barrel Aged Imperial Pajamas

Dovetail Brewery

Festbier – 6.7% (Made just for Oktoberfestiversary!) Brewed in the early spring, and matured through the summer, we make this double-decocted lager for the Oktoberfest season. Expect cozy flavors of light toast, bread crust, and of course, pretzel.
