What: New Indiana Brewery Night - Celebrate Indiana's new breweries!

Featured Beers ($4 pours):

18th Street Brewery's Jade (5.5% ABV)

An American Pale Ale brewed with oats, Crystal Rye, and Pacific Jade hops.

Outliers Brewing Company's Hopes & Dreams VSOP (7.5% ABV

A specialty brew to be featured at the Indiana Microbrewers Festival, and you get a privileged first peek at this beer! A light-colored and light-bodied ale brewed with barley, wheat, rice wine yeast, and eight botanicals. Barrel-aged in Cognac barrels.

Outliers Brewing Company's Blau Machen Pilsner (5.5% ABV)

Brewed exclusively with premium European Pilsner malt and a blend of Vanguard and Sterling hops, this pilsner is crisp on the palate with malt sufficient to bolster the hops. Finishes clean with appropriate bitterness.

Scarlet Lane Brewing Company's Dorian Stout (5.1% ABV)

Distinctively ever changing and always unforgiving in its character, Dorian aims to change your thinking of Stouts. Each revolving Dorian Stout incorporates unique and artful approaches to the painting canvas of this traditional beer. A combination of carefully selected Northwest hops, masterfully selected malts and distinct additions will take you to a new discovery of Stouts. Don't go mad however, it's not you changing, it's the Dorian Stout constantly rediscovering itself. 

Taxman Brewing Company's La Maison Saison (7% ABV)

La Maison is our brewery standard that pays ample attention to aromatic hops but stays within the parameters of a French farmhouse style favorite. La Maison employs flavor and aroma hops from the Pacific Northwest. La Maison has a generous dose of Hunter’s honey, earthy undertones and fragrant notes of citrus, grapefruit and pine. The finish is dry with a mild hop bitterness.

Special Guest Beer ($10 pours):

2013 Goose Island Beer Company's Bourbon County Brand Stout (14.2% ABV)

Brewed in honor of the 1000th batch at our original Clybourn brewpub. A liquid as dark and dense as a black hole with thick foam the color of a bourbon barrel. The nose is an intense mix of charred oak, chocolate, vanilla, caramel and smoke. One sip has more flavor than your average case of beer.
