TAP ROOM, BIERGARTEN, BREWERY

Full pours for on-site consumption (1/4 liter, 1/2 liter and liters) and cans to go. Communal tables, counter and table service, it's a place to socialize with friends or meet new ones. 

Open year-round (snow, sun, whatever), our 2000 sq ft Biergarten has a seating capacity of 250. Communal tables, heaters in the winter, umbrellas in the summer.

We hope that our brewery will provide customers a way to see the unique brewing processes and equipment we use - a traditional decoction brew-house, open and closed fermentation, horizontal lagering tanks, German gravity cask dispensing, and a Lukr draft system imported from the Czech Republic – tools, process and equipment that will allow a wide variety of lager and continental beer.

THE STANDARD

Czech Pils ||  4.4% ||  Czech Mug || 12° P
Taste: Lemon, Malty Sweetness, Bread
Notes: Classic Czech pale lager, brewed with floor-malted Pils malt and Sterling hops. Double decoction, open fermentation, and extended lagering time bring a bit of Plzen to Brighton and Salem.

PoloTMAVÝ

Czech Amber Lager ||  4.2% ||  Czech Mug || 11° P
Taste: Toast, Caramel, Bread
Notes: Polotmavy is Czech for “half-dark,” this 11° Plato Czech Amber Lager is brewed with Czech floor malted pils Vienna and Munich malts for notes of toast, caramel and bread. Czech Sladek hops balance out the malt and provide a spicy finish. This beer also undergoes a unique mashing schedule known as an enhanced double decoction for a more complex malt flavor. Open fermented, naturally carbonated, lagered forever

cERNÉ PIVO

Czech Black Lager || 4.5% || Czech Mug || 12° P

GERMAN & austrian BIER

ALTBIER

Dusseldorf-style Altbier || 4.5% || Willi Becher
Taste: Malt, Caramel, Toast
Notes: An ale fermented like a lager (long, slow, and cold) delivers a snappy bitterness with rounded notes of dark crusty bread and caramel. Sweet vanilla notes balance earthy bitterness, giving this beer a unique layered flavor.

GERMAN AFTERNOONS

German Pils || 4.5% || Willi Becher
Taste: Crisp, Dry, Hoppy
Notes:  Brewed with 100% Bavarian heirloom Pils malt, Perle, and Spalter Select hops and fermented with a classic bavarian yeast strain. German Afternoons has an upfront malt fullness that quickly leads to a pleasant drying balanced bitterness. The floral hop aroma comes from Notch's favorite German variety - Spalter Select. Named for the John Prine album, a German Afternoon is a spontaneous afternoon spent enjoying yourself, with a beer or two, instead of doing the errands or chores you "should" be doing.

HELLES SPEZIAL 

Bavarian Export Helles || 5.7% || Willi Becher
Taste: Honey, Grape, Biscuit
Notes: This export strength Bavarian Helles carries a bit more alcohol than the standard Helles, and with it comes more intense aromas of honey, grape and biscuit.

SALEM LAGER

Bavarian Helles || 4.5% || Willi Becher
Taste: Bright, Clean, Subtle Sweetness
Notes: A classic style from Munich, and what the Bavarians created after the Czech’s discovered Pilsner. Less hoppy than the Pilsner, Helles is malt driven and the flavor is clean and bright. 

ZWICKEL BIER

Bavarian Pale Lager  ||  4.5%  || Willi Becher
Taste: Zesty, Bready, Floral
Notes: An unfiltered Bavarian pale lager traditionally served with a slight haze direct from the lagering tank. Hopped with Spalt, this beer displays a nice balance of malt sweetness and hop bite. Notes of lemon and citrus, supported by a bready, light body.
