8.2% ABV

This 8.2% Imperial IPA was brewed to commemorate another milestone for this New Jersey classic. Inspired by the original, Head High Batch 5,000 is an amped up version of our favorite IPA, mixed up with some of our favorite hops. Head High Batch 5,000 is hopped in the Whirlpool with Citra and Centennial HyperBoost adding even punchier notes of orange and grapefruit. It was dry-hopped with a massive blend of Citra, Citra Cryo, Chinook, Simcoe, Simcoe Cryo, Cascade Cryo and lots of Galaxy, bringing delicious flavors of pineapple, peach and zesty grapefruit along with complex aromas of pine, citrus and passionfruit.

Vengeful Heart (2025)

Barrel-Aged Barleywine

12.8% ABV

This year's vintage of Vengeful Heart comes from a single barrel of barleywine aged for a year in Heaven Hill Select 14 Year Bourbon, chosen for its notably round mouthfeel and pleasant fruity profile. We then took this beer and dry hopped it with both Simcoe and Cascade to layer in notes of piney citrus and fruity undertones. Vengeful Heart pours a dark brown with intertwined aromatics of stewed plums and burnt caramel along with notes of stonefruit and grapefruit.

Port Omna

Stout

6.2% ABV

Connected to our family and heritage, and in celebration of the Irish village of Portumna, Port Omna is brewed using pilsner malt, oats, and a combination of British crystal malts and chocolate roasted barley. Pouring a deep black with a delicate chocolate-colored head, Port Omna boasts aromatics of freshly roasted coffee and baker’s chocolate and is complemented by a velvety, smooth finish.

Blue Ramp

India Pale Ale

7.4% ABV

This supremely juicy IPA is hopped in the whirlpool with Riwaka then dry hopped with a massive amount of Galaxy, Citra, Nelson and Krush. Blue Ramp pours a hazy golden color with aromatics of passionfruit, mangoes and guava.

Indicators

India Pale Ale

7.4% ABV

Indicators is hopped with Citra and Nelson in the Whirlpool, followed by a large dry-hop of Nelson, Citra, Waimea and Galaxy. This hazy IPA is made with our favorite Southern hemisphere hops, pushing aromatic and flavor notes of grapefruit, mango, pineapple, pomelo and tangerine.

Multicolored Mirrors

Black IPA

7.2% ABV

Multicolored Mirrors starts with our house Pilsner malt, combined with a selection of European caramel and roasted malts to create a rich and complex flavor. A blend of Simcoe, Cascade, and Columbus were added to bring hoppy complements to the dark malts. Multicolored Mirrors pours black with a thick mocha-tan head. Its full-bodied character showcases notes of resin, pine and citrus, balanced by a hint of roasted malt sweetness.

Purple Mountains

India Pale Ale

7.2% ABV

Purple Mountains is hopped throughout the hot side with Calista and Hallertau Blanc before getting a big dry hop of more Hallertau Blanc, Calista, and Nelson Sauvin. The use of newer German hops combined with one of our favorite New Zealand hops creates unique layers of hop flavors including soft melon and orange sherbet intertwined with smooth wine grape and berry notes.

Whole Leaf Magic

India Pale Ale

7.5% ABV

This year, Whole Leaf Magic is brewed entirely with Krush (formerly HBC 586). Whole Leaf Magic received a large dose of whole leaf Krush during the Whirlpool before being fermented on an even larger quantity of Whole Leaf Krush. Whole Leaf Magic was then heavily dry-hopped with even more Whole Leaf Krush before packaging. Whole Leaf Krush gives this beer a bold, hoppy profile of stone fruit, berry, citrus and sweet fruit, with an underlying floral profile from the whole leaf variety.

Blue Motel

India Pale Ale

6.9% ABV

Brewed to be a lower ABV relative to Blue Hotel, this beer is hopped with Galaxy and Riwaka in the Whirlpool, followed by a dry-hop of Galaxy, Riwaka, and Citra. Blue Motel offers bold hoppy notes of passionfruit, peach and citrus.

Tomorrow Is Already Here (2024)

Double Barrel-Aged Imperial Stout

13.4% ABV

For this year's vintage of Tomorrow Is Already Here, our team tasted through our cellar and selected some of our favorite Bourbon Barrel-Aged Imperial Stouts. These barrels, with an average age of 25 months, were blended and Double Barrel-Aged for an additional three months in separate spirits casks. After aging, these casks were blended and conditioned in stainless for four weeks prior to bottling. Our 2024 Tomorrow Is Already Here pours jet black with a tan foam and brings complex notes of caramel, vanilla bean and coconut with highlights of fresh baked cinnamon pastry and additional layers of sweet cake frosting and dark mocha.

Flannel Wetsuit

Winter IPA

7.2% ABV

Flannel Wetsuit was hopped with Simcoe, Mosaic and Columbus in the Whirlpool, and Simcoe, Mosaic, Columbus & Simcoe Cryo in the dry-hop. Flannel Wetsuit was fermented with a clean yeast strain for a crisp, neutral profile allowing the hops to carry the flavors. Flannel Wetsuit pours gold, presenting a flavor profile of resin, pine, peach, and mango.
