Burton Baton

10% alcohol. 70 IBU. Introduced in 2004. Brewed by Dogfish Head, in Delaware.

"This oak-aged hybrid has been gaining popularity over the past few years and is now available year-round.
For Burton Baton, we brew two "threads," or batches, of beer: an English-style old ale and an imperial IPA.
After fermenting the beers separately in our stainless tanks, they're transferred and blended together in one of our large oak tanks. Burton Baton sits on the wood for about a month.
When enjoying the Burton Baton, you'll find an awesome blend of the citrus notes from Northwestern hops melding with woody, vanilla notes from the oak. The wood also tends to mellow the 10% ABV of Burton, so tread cautiously!"

Liquid Truth Serum

6.8% alcohol. 65 IBU. Introduced in 2016. Sold in the Autumn season.

"Our unique process involving pelletized, powdered, leaf and liquefied hops makes for a blissfully inefficient IPA that's truthfully hoppy without being deceptively bitter. You'll find the perfect match of citrusy and tropical notes, making for a zesty finish ... honest."

Arabicadabra

5.5% alcohol. Brewed in Michigan.

"A little brewers' magic transforms locally roasted Arabica beans and a variety of specialty malts into a creamy, intense coffee stout. Enjoy before it disappears.
Arabicadabra is brewed with a cold coffee extract made at the brewery using a combination of fair trade, organic Nicaraguan coffee beans and Sumatra coffee beans. Lactose is also used for creaminess (those with dairy allergies or sensitivities should take note). It was inspired by Milchkaffe, another specialty Bell's beer."

Sierra Nevada Bigfoot

9.6% alcohol. 90 IBU. Introduced in 1983.

"Bigfoot is a beast of a beer, brimming with bold flavors of bittersweet malt and heaps of aggressive whole-cone Pacific Northwest hops. First introduced in the winter of 1983, Bigfoot is a cult-classic beer brewed in the barleywine style, meaning a strong, robust, bruiser of a beer with the refined intensity of a wine. Bigfoot is prized by beer collectors for its supreme cellarability. Under the proper conditions, it can age like a fine wine, developing new flavors and character as it matures in the bottle. Each new release or “expedition” is vintage dated. Collect your own and see the flavors develop and progress."

Calcaseiu Common

5.4% alcohol. 36 IBU. Brewed in Louisiana, by Crying Eagle Brewing Company.

This amber colored lager is created by an unusual hybrid Lager/Ale brewing process started during the Gold Rush. Toastycarmelfruityhopness is the uncommon word we're using to describe this beer."

Maison Blanc

6.5% alcohol. 8 IBU. Introduced in 2017. Brewed in Louisiana for Louisiana, only.

"The 300th anniversary of New Orleans deserves a toast like no other — so we suggest you raise a glass (or bottle) of Abita Maison Blanc. Our tricentennial tribute was brewed to capture the diverse history and culture of this great city, with malted barley and wheat bringing the downhome charm and Sauvignon blanc grapes adding a distinctive touch of elegance. The result is light, crisp and dry, a refreshing “house white” that would surely make New Orleans proud. Bonne fête!"
