Did you know our Aurora Arts Taproom is dog friendly? 🐶

The only thing better than enjoying a fresh, cold beer on the weekend is getting to do so alongside your pup! 🍺

We’re open 3:30-9pm Friday, and 1-8pm Saturday and Sunday. See you (and your furry friends) soon!

It doesn’t get fresher than this…

Just released last week, Same Day Shipping is our first ever fresh hop beer, brewed with Strata hops from our friends @indiehops ✈️

After being harvested in Oregon, 90 pounds of Strata boarded a passenger flight and were immediately added to the brew, just hours after being picked. After waiting patiently for their arrival all morning, the whole brewery, from bartenders to brewers, was buzzing with excitement.

The result is a delicious, crisp IPA with notes of Candied Pineapple, Pink Starburst and Freeze Dried Strawberry. This special beer is available only on draft at our Congress Park taproom - come on by and give it a try while it lasts!

Cheers to another great GABF week! 🍻

Now that we’re rested (and re-hydrated) we’re looking back at a week with incredible beer, good times, and great friends.

Every year, GABF week is an all-consuming team effort. It also presents a chance for us to connect with people in a special way - from curating experiences with fellow industry friends, to exploring outside of our comfort zone and sharing some exciting projects with fellow beer nerds. This week reminds us why we love this industry and this community.

Whether it’s GABF next year, or hanging out with us next weekend, we hope to see each and every one of you soon!

We laughed so hard at our first Queer Comedy Show that we had to do another…

When we first conceived the idea of the Reverse Engineering series, we were only slightly nervous about letting someone else (even though we very much trust our friends at @americansolera, @angrychairbrewing and @burialbeer) determine what we’d add to our beers…but we knew it’d be a fun experiment.

After years of aging, we are happy to have found the perfect harmony of barrel character and flavor with the selected adjuncts. You won’t want to miss the opportunity to try these one-of-a-kind stouts.

Check out the draft list for the day and make your sampling plan now, as we only have ONE keg of each beer. The festivities begin when we open at 11am - no tickets required.

- 𝗕𝗢𝗧𝗧𝗟𝗘 𝗥𝗘𝗟𝗘𝗔𝗦𝗘 -

For our GABF bottle release this year, we tried something different from any collaboration or barrel-aged beer we’ve ever done before…

The Reverse Engineering series flips our typical approach to barrel-aged beer. It started when we asked our friends at @americansolera, @angrychairbrewing and @burialbeer to each pick two of their favorite adjuncts. We then tasted through our barrel cellar and carefully selected barrels to complement those flavors. Since we normally first select barrels and let them influence what additions would lean into existing notes, having adjuncts chosen first was a fun creative challenge for us. We hope you enjoy the results.

Debuting today is Burner Phone, a fan-favorite hazy Double IPA featuring Mosaic and Galaxy hops, plus the latest in our In-Flight series, Initial Descent. An IPA bursting with notes of Ruby Red Grapefruit, Tropicana Orange Juice and Grapefruit Soda - Initial Descent showcases a hop bill of Citra, Kohia Nelson and Motueka.

This week also brings the re-release of one of our favorite Foeder Lagers - Mozkové 12º. Czech for “Cerebral,” our take on the traditional pale lager is beautifully balanced between crisp malt and floral hops - and we’re serving it the traditional Czech style at our Congress Park taproom, using a Lukr tap system and lager mugs!
