Ironshield Brewing – Divine Dubbel

Style: Belgiun Dubbel Ale

IBU: — | ABV: 8.0%

Description: Trappist Monks have striven to perfect their brewing craft for centuries, dedicated to sustainability, self-reliance, and divine trust. By respecting the high standards set by Trappist Monks, we are proud to bring you a true Belgian-style Dubbel. This is a high-gravity beer best sipped and enjoyed out of a chalice in the colder months.

Broken Boundary – The Landbier for Time

Style: Lager

IBU: — | ABV: 5.3%

Description:“The Landbier For Time” is a beer with ancient roots in the wilderness of German Franconia. This beer emerges from the farmhouse tradition of Bavaria as a showcase of the variety of lagers that were brewed before light lagers dominated the world. You’ll get all of the crispness you expect from a lager with a balanced portion of hazlenut and maltiness you’d expect from a dunkel, but with a dryness that is all it’s own.

Denali Brewing Company/Denali Spirits – Seattle Kraken Drop

Style: RTD Canned Cocktail

IBU: | ABV: 6%

Description: Denali Spirits is the newest innovation founded by Denali Brewing. It was a natural progression for us, those devoted to the art of creating the finest craft beer to also produce premium distilled spirits. We have started Denali Spirits with an intensive, small batch process that at the heart is focused on time-tested distilling traditions. Our Still, affectionally known as Elsa, was lovingly built in house from spare parts, much like the bride of Frankenstein. Our primary goal for our small grassroots foundation is to concentrate on the same quality and control that is indicative and proven with our Brewery. Denali Spirits is truly handcrafted to the highest standard, placing our products in the forefront of premium spirits.

The official canned cocktail of the Seattle Kraken NHL hockey team. A Raspberry Lemon Drop!

The Florida Brewery – Gator Lager

Style: Lager

IBU: 30 | ABV: 5%

Description: Gator Lager is a German Style Pale Lager, with medium body, balanced perfectly with bitterness. Good any time of year. Born in the 80s, re-born in 2018.

Karl Strauss Brewing Company – Brewer’s Dozen Imperial Cookie Stout

Style: Imperial Stout

IBU: 50 | ABV: 10.5%

Description: ’Twas the night before bottling day and all through the brewhouse, not a beer drinker was stirring, not even Karl Strauss. (JK, we’ve actually been very busy getting the 12th – and final! – installment in our “Twelve Days” series of holiday beers ready for you.) Brewer’s Dozen Imperial Cookie Stout is whiskey barrel aged and brewed with cocoa nibs and vanilla beans. Inspired by warm cookies fresh from the oven, this bold beer has notes of gooey chocolate, dark caramel, and bourbon. Who needs milk? This year, we’re dunking our cookies in beer.

Lawson’s Finest Liquids – Brave Little State

Style: Pale Ale

IBU: — | ABV: 5.0%

Description: As part of our Good Brews for a Cause initiative under the Social Impact Program, we’ve teamed up with Vermont Public Radio (VPR) to brew a Vermont-exclusive beer — Brave Little State Pale Ale. This new beer is brewed for Vermonters and Vermonters at heart, packed Vermont-grown ingredients and is now available year-round.

Brave Little State is brewed with barley, wheat and hops sourced from the Green Mountain State for a beer that tastes like home. Each can honors local producers and forges a deeper connect between Lawson’s Finest Liquids and other Vermont-based businesses like Champlain Valley Hops and Nordic Farms where our hops and malt comes from.

Schlafly Beer – Wintry Haze IPA

Style: IPA

IBU: 15 | ABV: 6.0%

Description: The white out; an occurrence so cold and hazy that there’s almost zero visibility. We blend malt, wheat, and oats with pounds of experimental hops for a beer that results in a white out that you can put in a glass. This winter storm packs a massive wave of juicy hop flavor.
