OUR BEER

No chemicals, no preservatives, nor additives of any kind.

We enjoy creating new beers and using ingredients in season; however, the beers we brew consistently are:

  • Miner's Gold -- Golden ale with a strong malt aroma from the 2-row, 6-row and Munich malts within. Has a matching front-end sweetness, but finishes clean with an accent of Lublin hops. OG: 1.052
  • Colorado Red Ale -- A true, robust red, generously hopped. Bright and malty. 6.2%ABV
  • Jessie's Garage -- Our pale ale is made with 2-row and crystal malts, and topped with copious volumes of Centennial and Marynka hops for floral aromatics with a hoppy bite.
  • Rye Porter -- We use 12% rye to build a porter that carries a strong roast barley flavor with a smooth, malty finish. We call it our darkest light beer and lightest dark beer.
  • Stout Ol' Friend -- Our darkest brew, heavy with roast barley and black patent malt. A full-bodied, rich stout that closes with a strong coffee character. OG: 1.062
  • OAO -- Our Amber is Orange! We use Munich malts for color and character, producing and orange brew with a nice white head, clean creamy body, and a slightly tart crisp finish. OG: 1.054
  • SEIPA -- Solar Energy India Pale Ale is named with a nod to our SEI friends down the road. Plenty of malt brewed with piles of fresh Chinook & Cascade hops for a crisp profile and strong grapefruit overtones. 6.2%ABV

SODAS

  • Grass Rootbeer -- A non-alcoholic choice, you’ll note a spicy hint of anise. Rich, earthy flavors, slightly spicy and very refreshing.
  • Cherry Soda -- Better than beer? All local, organic cherries with just a hint of a secret ingredient. Nothing more, nothing less. Thirst quencher.

Find out where you can enjoy these delicious treats.

We brew with four simple ingredients:

  • barley
  • hops
  • water
  • yeast
  • (and sometimes an apple or cherry or two)

 

New beers styles are being created all the time!

Stop by our tasting room to try them out.

Recent seasonal beers
  • Pumpkin Ale
  • Lavendar IPA
  • Cherry IPA -- We brew this specialty beer using 100 pounds of local organic cherries in the secondary fermentation. Wonderful cherry aroma, red body and just enough cherry flavor to tickle the tongue and accent the hops within.
  • The "20 Can" Summer Ale -- We created this ale for Paonia's 2011 Cherry Days. One the lightest brews we've made, it was bronze in color with a nice malty finish. Meant to be enjoyed in the park, under the trees.
  • Gorgeous G.A.L. (Grand Avenue Lager) -- A golden lager with a clean finish. Easy drinking satisfaction. 5%ABV
  • TJ 60/40 Wheat Lager -- Based on a Thomas Jefferson recipe, this lager is brewed with 60% barley and 40% wheat for a light and wheaty taste. 5.2%ABV
  • Sticky Thickett -- A dark ale featuring English malts and yeast... all blended to achieve a nutty beer with a classic ESB finish. OG: 1.056
  • Hefeweisen -- Traditional Bavarian style. A refreshing beer brewed from white wheat and 2-row malt, seasoned with Lublin hops and pitched with a classic German wheat strain that produces banana and clove overtones. Served with a slice of lemon. OG: 1.054
