Plumage

6.5% alcohol. 55 IBU. Brewed, in Illinois, by Finch Brewing Company. https://www.finchbeer.com/beers/plumage

"The first new beer brewed in our new brewery located in the Chicago Brewing District, Plumage IPA is a 6.5% ABV and 55 IBU American IPA that takes flight on the wings of citra and blanc hops. It packs a small bite at 55 IBUs but this little birdie will serenade your senses with its sweet, sweet song nonetheless."https://https://www.finchbeer.com/beers/plumage/beers/plumage

Conspiracy Theory IPA

6.5% alcohol. 60 IBU. Introduced in 2015. Brewed in Texas.

Sam '76

4.7% alcohol. 12 IBU. Certified Kosher. Introduced in 2017.

"Sam ’76 is a revolutionary new beer that is an unmatched combination of refreshment, craft flavor, and aroma. By experimenting with both lager and ale yeast strains, our brewers developed a unique brewing process that takes two active fermentations and blends them together to create a deliciously harmonious result. This process delivers a distinct flavor that showcases the slight fruitiness of an ale with the balanced drinkability and smoothness of a lager. So whether you’re tailgating, watching the game, or headed to a party with friends, Sam ’76 can be your go-to beer."

Wicked Weed Pernicious IPA

7.3% alcohol. Brewed in North Carolina, by Wicked Weed Brewing Company.

"Pernicious implies influence that is harmful in a way not easily noticed. This beer is harmful, not because of overwhelming hop bitterness, but because its balanced brightness insidiously ruins your expectations for all other IPAs. This hop delivery vehicle is crafted to enjoy fresh and often and because of its drinkability and clean finish you’ll never look at IPA the same again. The harm is done."

Dayglow IPA

7.4% alcohol. About 65 IBU. Brewed in Washington, by Elysian Brewing Company.

"It drips with tropical, sunshiny Mosaic, and twinkles with touches of Eldorado and Centennial. A touch of wheat hazes the malt bill a bit around the edges and the IBUs are stuck in the mid-sixties."

Muses

4.5% alcohol. 20 IBU. Brewed in Louisiana, by NOLA Brewing Company.

"The Belgian-style ale is mildly hopped. MUSES is also a "session" beer with only 4.4 percent alcohol, so you can keep drinking it until the last float rolls past. MUSES will be available only on draft. The MUSES beer will benefit the philanthropic work of the all-female Krewe of Muses. In 2015, the Krewe of Muses will focus its support on the non-profit Women with a Vision."

Prytania Imperial Porter

8% alcohol. 40 IBU. Brewed in Louisiana, by NOLA Brewing Company.

"Brewed in the traditional British style, our Prytania Imperial Porter is big, bold and rich, reminiscent of high-quality bittersweet chocolate both in color (very dark but not black) and in sweetness (not overly sweet but not unsweet). Perfect to sip outside on a brisk winter day. Perhaps a stroll down Prytania Street. But watch out for the Imperial-caliber ABV lest your stroll turn into a stumble and things get a little too dramatic."

Cocodrie

8% alcohol. 60 IBU. Brewed in Louisiana, by Bayou Teche Brewing.

Style: Belgian Tripel IPA
Malt: Pilsner ; Hops:  Aramis, Aurora, Bobek
"Cocodrie is Cajun French for alligator, and this Belgian style ale is stuffed with enough hops to stand up to a sauce-piquant prepared with one. We recklessly crammed IPA-worthy additions of hops (six separate hop additions, plus dry hopping) into an elegant and tastefully brewed Tripel – the spice and fruit flavors from the yeasts mix with the sumptuous hop flavors to create a rich, yet dangerously drinkable IPA.
Our interpretation of the celebrated Tripel IPA style of beer is crafted with a generous amount of Pilsner malt which insures this ale clocks in at just over 8 percent ABV. Our brewmaster, Gar Hatcher selected strains of French and Belgian yeasts for their complementary fruit and spice flavors which meld with the multiple additions of elegant European hops. Cocodrie is then dry-hopped with French and Styrian hops which provides this beer its fruity, citrus, herbal and spicy hop aroma.  Available July to December."

Rahr's Blonde

5% alcohol helles lager. Brewed in Texas, by Rahr & Sons.

"It's our very first beer - golden medium-bodied and brewed as a traditional Munich Helles style pale lager. It features a rounded maltiness without being too heavy. And like every proud Texan, it has a good head, is pleaseant but never overly sweet."
