GW Beer List

Last updated on August 28, 2010*

Cask Conditioned Ales

Properly cellared, conditioned, and then served at cellar temperature (52°). Hand pulled from our four English beer engines.

Great Waters House Ale: This is a medium to light bodied, copper colored ale. The pleasant hoppyness comes from East Kent Golding hops. The clean aroma helps balance the biscuit and caramel malts used in this English country ale.; O.G. 12P, 35 IBU'S, 5.0% ABV

The Black Watch Oat Stout: Full bodied stout brewed with shelled malted oats and roasted barley. Coffee, chocolate, caramel and nutty flavors abound. Enjoy whilst guarding the royal jewels.; O.G. 15P, 45 IBU'S, 5.8% ABV

Patio Daddio: A strong American pale ale made with generous portions of Glacier, Amarillo, and Summit Dwarf hops. Released on father's day at Midway Stadium. Cheers, Daddio!; O.G. 13.6P, 70 IBU'S, 5.75% ABV

We are also having some fun with our seasonal brews and with some of our regular offerings. We will be dry hopping, oak aging, tea bagging, and uff-duffing different beers, then tapping when ready. Each is casked in only two or three firkins, so 5-7 days is the average run. Yes, our cask beer is very popular with our friends, always fresh, CAMRA compliant, and seriously looked after in our 52 degree cellar.

Pushed Beer

Pushed with CO2, served at 38°F from our properly maintained draft tower.

Golden Prairie Blond Ale: Refreshing light bodied golden ale, using noble hop varieties. Clean delicate aroma makes this one of our most popular beers.; O.G. 11 P, 18 IBU’S, 4.8% ABV

Brown Trout Brown Ale: Slightly full bodied rich brown ale. Caramel chocolate maltiness makes this satisfying dark ale a year round favorite.; O.G. 15 P, 35 IBU’S, 5.8% ABV

Saint Peter Pale Ale: Medium bodied amber ale, with a pleasant balance of malt and hop varieties. Our pale ale has been a favorite choice since 1997.; O.G. 14P, 50 IBU'S, 5.5% ABV

Kaizerweizer Hefeweizen: Our summer seasonal is back! German barley, wheat, and yeast are used to brew this hazy nectar. Remember, no lemons!; O.G. 14P, 16 IBU, 5.6% ABV

Unkeldunkel Dunkelweizen: A darker version of hefeweizen, the dunkelweizen, still delivers a sweet, fruity presence from the yeast used for the brew. Unlike the hefeweizen, however, it also provides a balance of toasted, biscuity maltiness.; O.G. 12.6P, 18 IBU'S, 5.6% ABV
