BREAKSIDE BREWERY LODGE MEETING BEER LIST

Coming Out Party NE-IPA: Originally a collaboration with Comrade Brewing in Denver, this a high octane hazy hits hard with tropical, dank, and citrus-heavy Taiheke, Mosaic, and Vic Secret. The hops are couched in a pillowy malt base that makes the finish super soft. 7.8% 92 IBU

French Quarter Rye-BA Barleywine: Inspired by the flavors of New Orleans famous Vieux Carré cocktail, this is a luscious and rich rye-wine style ale. Three types of malted rye form the base of this extravagant beer, which then aged for 15 months in American brandy barrels. Find aromas of nougat, red grape, chocolate malt ball, marshmallow, sweet caramel, and orange in this complex ale. 9.9% 40 IBU

Hop Delivery Mechanism IIPA: Originally developed at Breakside’s Dekum pub in 2015, Hop Delivery Mechanism is double dry hopped with Azacca and Citra hops, while the “So Cal trinity” of Amarillo, Simcoe, and Columbus anchor down the kettle and whirlpool. The intense hop character comes across as juicy and dank with big notes of orange marmalade, mango, and Froot Loops. 8.5% 68 IBU

Kellerfest: When Breakside’s brewmaster studied in Germany, he fell in love with the unfiltered, ruddy, amberish lagers from legendary Bavarian and Franconian breweries such as Hacker-Pschorr and Paulaner. Kellerfest is inspired by these lagers — it balances bready malt notes with German noble hop flavors, and the result is a refreshing, uncommon lager. 5% 25 IBU

Lavender Fizz Gin-BA Ale: Inspired by the family of Fizz cocktails, Breakside aged a citrusy, golden pale ale in second-use Old Tom Gin casks from small distillers around Oregon, then conditioned it on two types of culinary lavender. 6.1% 21 IBU

Smashbang IPA: Originally designed with Figueroa Mountain Brewing with soft ester-forward yeast, clean European malts, and an international array of hops to break some new ground in hop-forward beers: Waimea, Wakatu, and Galaxy. This IPA is a fruity hop bomb with notes of melon, passionfruit, starfruit, and peach. 6% 44 IBU

The Body Electric Wood-Aged Sour: A mixed culture sour beer that was fermented and aged in oak barrels from two of Breakside’s favorite Oregon wineries. A blend of several different lots of beer from their wood cellar, the finished product comes from 15 casks of beer brewed between August and November 2017. After nearly two years in barrel, this beer showcases a complex array of vinous and fruity notes, including pie cherry, pineapple, and fruit cocktail. Balanced acidity couples with a medium-high level of tannin from aged hops and oak for an elegant and multilayered finish. 6.4% 6 IBU
