We brew passion in the middle of
nowhere. From our year round selections, to our seasonals, and to our
experiments (indeed, to our collective fancy!), we've got something
you'll enjoy!
Year Rounds
These are the only beers we serve year 'round!
Whatknot Ale
Light, Refreshing, Creamy || ABV 4.4% | 15 IBU
Whatknot is our flagship. It's not a "wheat beer", but
it has wheat. It's not a "cream ale", but it has corn. It resides somewhere
in-between, creating a uniquely smooth and refreshing yet flavorful beer that
everyone can enjoy.
Variations: blood orange (Aug'16)
Landlocked IPA
Smooth, Tropical hoppy, Malty || ABV
6.2% | 72 IBU
We're really been into new hops
flavors and aromas, and we want that to shine because we're different,
so let's be different. Currently, Landlocked is Mosaic, Galaxy,
and Citra hops (the first two are from Down Under), and it's giving it
a big tropical aroma and smoothly intense hop flavor. Less bitter than
the IBUs imply because it's balanced with malty sweetness. But you
don't have to know what any of this means. All you need to do is smell
the awesome, and taste the libation, then you'll know it's
unmistakably Landlocked.
Variations: Lockadillo IPA
Amarillo hopped (Aug'16)
Good Mornin'
Oatmeal Breakfast Stout
Rich, Roasty, Creamy || ABV 6.2% | 42 IBU
Our Oatmeal Breakfast Stout has been a
labor of love. Amber has always been a big fan of oatmeal stouts (from
Schlafly to Founder's and everything in-between), so we set out to
make a stout that would meet her approval. Eight batches later, and
we've developed a super creamy, rich, yet smooth stout with that
unmistakable oatmeal flavor. You won't find that "motor oil"
consistency here, but you will find a pleasant bit of dark creamy
goodness that most "non-stout drinkers" can enjoy. We love it so much
that we have a hard time making enough!
Variations: with cold brew
coffee (time to time with different coffees)
Pretty Oftens
These we have pretty often, but not
always.
Front Porch Porter
Lighter, Coffee and Chocolate Notes
|| ABV 4.9% | 35 IBU
Every great beer needs a back story,
and our Front Porch Porter is no exception. I began homebrewing back
in 2008 when a good friend suggested we could make our own beer. We
started with a kit (Peat Smoked Porter), and before long, brewing
became a frequent occurrence for our group (affectionately dubbed "The
Punky Brewsters"). In 2010, Amber and I bought 30 acres in the
country, and the house had a porch. Well, it was a half way
constructed and abandoned project of the previous owner's (no roof, no
rails, not even butted against the house!). We had it finished
complete with a tin roof. While the intention was solely to have a
front porch to sit and relax on, watching the fall leaves blow by and
the deer munching on our fruits and veggies, I quickly saw that I
could brew bigger batches of beer if we moved the brewing from the
kitchen stove to outside, and the front porch was ideal, so in 2011
(around the time I realized I wanted to open a brewery), we began
brewing on the front porch. Among the first beers brewed in this
manner was a good friend's recipe for porter (which was based on
Fuller's London Porter). After partaking two kegs of this porter, we
knew we would brew it again and again (and again). Being the ever-mad
scientist type, I just had to tweak the recipe here and there making
it my own. Seven versions later, and we have dialed in on the exact
porter flavor you may have tasted before, and in historical fashion,
we dubbed it Front Porch Porter. So the next time you are sipping on
some WBCo Front Porch Porter, let it's smooth roasty flavor transport
you to your front porch, wherever that may be.
SiPA (session iPA)
Dry, White Wine & Passionfruit || ABV 4.5%
| 55 IBU
A sessionable IPA made with Galaxy and Nelson
hops. Crisp and smooth with a wonderfully hoppy bite.
Lemongrass Wheatknot
Intense lemon yet smooth drinking || ABV 5.7%
| 26 IBU
Loads of lemongrass plus Lemondrop
hops on a 50% wheat malt base make for a delightful romp for the
tastebuds!
Randomizers
Esteemed Punk Common
Refreshing, Crisp, Lightly Hopped || ABV 5.1%
| 43 IBU
An uncommonly special California common, the
Esteemed Punk paves her own path but is well regarded by those who
know her. After the first sip of this crisp ale/lager hybrid, you'll
hold her in high esteem too.
Hibiscus Ale
Sweet, Tart, Intense || ABV 5.4%
| 23 IBU
The deep red hue. The floral aroma.
The delicate dance of sweet and tart. This is the beer you never knew
you'd love.
Honey Wheat Pale Ale
??? || ABV ??%
| ?? IBU
Why have a plain ol' APA, when you can
have it with a touch of wheat and rich local honey? This is what a
smooth summer pale ale is all about.
Landbridge IIPA
Full bodied, rich & easy hops || ABV
7.8%
| 93 IBU
Landbridge: It's not just how people
might have gotten from Asia to the Americas! Hops from every hop
growing region of the world come together for a complex set of citrus
hop aromas with subtle bittering. It moonlights with Vermont yeast
which adds that extra special touch that you'll appreciate.
Mississipecan Brown
Loads of Pecan, Sweet || ABV 5.2%
| 26 IBU
You don't need to know how to
pronounce it for it to take you back to grandma's fresh pecan pie.
Cherry Harvest
Hoprechaun Red
Pistachio & Vanilla Salted Wedding Ale
Scottish Zombie
Experiments (bwaahahahaha!)
Berliners
Persimmons, Cherry, Dill Pickle
