BEER (updated 4/19/25)

*HAPPY HOUR 4-6PM Monday-Friday, $2 off House DRAFT pints*

 
Mello ‘Rillo  |  3.5 / 5.5 / 8
Triple Dry-Hopped (TDH) Pale Ale. The brainchild of one of our favorite patrons, Greg, this pale ale is brewed with flaked wheat, Double Eagle pale malt, wheat malt, hopped completely with fresh Amarillo, and fermented with a fun blend of yeast strains. Guava, underripe pineapple, lemon bar, Necco wafers, luscious green grass. 4.6% abv
 

2D or Not 2D?  |  3.25 / 5.75 / 7.25

Burton Ale. An English-inspired brew featuring well-seasoned water, emulating sulfate content of the highly-gypsous water from the town of Burton-upon-Trent. Brewed with Pale malt from Double Eagle, hopped with Goldings & Northdown from the UK, and fermented with an English ale yeast. Malty, bitter, herbal, and well-salted. 5.3% abv
  
See You Next Chewsday  | 3 / 4.25 / 6.75
Best Bitter. A pub beer brewed with Gambrinus ESB malt, hopped with Goldings & a bit of Northdown, and fermented with the delightful ester-producer, London III. Comforting aromatics, lemon tea, biscuity malt, gently folded edges. 4.2% abv
 
Turbski  |  3.5 / 5.25 / 7.75
Hazy IPA. A hoppy ale hearkening back to the rise of NEIPA in Pennsylvania. Brewed with barley from Rabbit Hill Farms and supported by a hefty bill of wheat. Hopped ever so lightly in the kettle (like the “olden” days), and dry-hopped with Simcoe & Azacca at a rate unheard of a decade ago. Fermented with the superior ale strain for hazy/juicy beer; supported by a plush water profile. Tastes of Smarties, cotton candy grapes, strawberry milk, crème anglaise, Cowtail filling, fresh squeezed tangerine juice. 6.4% abv
 
Second Wish  |  3.5 / 5.25 / 7.75 
Pale Lager. A Czech-inspired collaboration with Wishful Thinking, somewhat of a Philadelphia-brewed version of our last brew, On Second Thought, made in Bethlehem. Brewed with Czech floor malted pilsner & Munich malts, hopped with an ample bounty of two variations of Czech grown Saaz, and fermented with “the” Pilsner yeast. Fermented gently, naturally carbonated, and conditioned cold, for a total 9-week production time. 4.2% abv
 
Here for a Season  |  3.5 / 5.5 / 8
Hibiscus IPA. A pink-hued American IPA brewed with all pilsner malt from Rabbit Hill Farms, firmly hopped with Idaho Gem & Triumph, steeped with a bounty of hibiscus petals, and fermented with Cali ale yeast. Tastes pf springtime, rose water, resin, unsweetened white iced tea, red fruit snacks, and fond memories. 6.9% abv
 
Cuvée de Bancroft  |  4 / 7 / 8.5
A fun experiment in how switching one or two ingredients in a recipe can drastically transform the profile of a beer. Brewed with the same grist of 2-row and Maris Otter as our beloved house beer, Bancroft Beer, but hopped with aged East kent Goldings in the kettle. We then pitched our RAF mixed culture blend, and allowed it to ferment and condition for 3 months before being dry hopped with fresh East Kent Goldings. The result is a completely unique experience compared to regular Bancroft Beer. A bright lemony citric punch up front which lends way to strawberry and delicate earthy malt, with a bone dry finish shaped by our classic minerality. 5.5% abv
 
Flew Too Close to the Sun  |  4.25 / 7.5
Triple IPA brewed with Gambrinus IPA malt and fermented with American ale yeast. Double dry-hopped with Anchovy, Strata, and Nectaron. 9.2% abv
 
Huy  |  8   16oz can
Vietnamese Coffee Stout – 2025 edition of our homage to our beloved Huy. This batch is special – in addition to it being a more drinkable ABV, we collaborated with Càphê Roasters from Kensington to add another Vietnamese element to this Vietnamese coffee-inspired stout. Thomas provided us with a bold Robusta, which was cold steeped (like cold brew) during conditioning. The coffee is the star here, but holding it up is a beer brewed with malted barley, oats, and wheat from Double Eagle Malt, various levels of roasted grains, and a good bit of chicory coffee! There’s even some vanilla (Sumatran and Tahitian) to round flavors out. This batch contains *no* milk sugar. 4.55% abv
 
Incantate  |  6  6oz draft
Coconut StoutWine. A hybrid of a beer, Incantate is a barleywine with a handful of roasted specialty malts found in stouts. Brewed to a gigantic starting gravity with thousands of pounds of malt and boiled for over 4 hours. Fermented slowly with a blend of yeasts, then conditioned on both raw and hand-toasted coconut. Black in color, thick-bodied, creamy, sweet, roasty, with flavors of dried fruit, chocolate milk, and lots of coconut. 12% abv
 
Eight Red  |  18  750ml bottle
“Saison.” A blended mixed-fermentation beer created with our ages-old RAF culture and brewed with mulberries from the Second District Farm!  Aged for one year in oak, this anniversary blend shows wildflower honey, red raspberries, wood, and SweeTarts. 5.5% abv
 

Eight Green  |  18 750ml bottle

“Saison.” A blended mixed-fermentation beer created with our ages-old RAF culture.  Aged for one year in oak, this anniversary blend shows white peach, tart yellow raspberries, moss, lemon wedge, and a variety of stone fruit aromatics. 5.5% abv
