THE CORE FOUR

GUNNY GOLD KÖLSCH

5.1% ABV | 22 IBU’s
For this recipe we wanted to go traditional and capture the character of beers brewed in Köln, Germany. The light grain bill, hearty kettle additions of Saaz and Hallertauer Mittelfrüh, and a German ale yeast make for a delicate and balanced beer. This beer pours a crystal-clear and light gold with a white head. Herbal and spicy hop aromas open up into a light, grainy-sweet body with a crisp finish.

GREEN GATE IPA

6.7% ABV | 85 IBU’s
A West Coast IPA for hopheads and folks looking to expand their palate. We load this beer with Citra and Mosaic hops throughout the boil, whirlpool and dry hopping. Fresh pine and grapefruit dominate the aroma with peach and dank cannabis making an appearance. Light grain, and faint caramel give balance through the body and lead to a stone fruit and citrus rind finish with a pleasant bitterness that lingers long after the last sip.

ANTHRACITE AMBER ALE

6.1% ABV | 25 IBU’s
An iconic style throughout the American Craft Beer Revolution, Amber Ales are balanced and approachable. Our amber ale continues this great tradition. Look for toast, biscuit and subtle piney hop aromas, a smooth body of caramel and bread crust, and a finish that is rounded out with toasted caramel and a balanced bitterness.

SOL'S ESPRESSO STOUT

6.0% ABV | 33 IBU’s
Our boldest year-round offering is brewed in collaboration with Tributary Coffee Roasters. They roast a special espresso blend just for this beer! Espresso dominates the aroma with roasted malt and beautiful chocolate. The medium body is balanced with sweet caramel notes and dark chocolate with a bright espresso finish. Goes great with breakfast or your favorite dessert!

Ruby waves- raspberry american wheat ale

5.2% ABV | 15 IBU’s
Spring has sprung, and so has this vibrant beer! We crafted an effortlessly refreshing American Wheat Ale, infused with over 270 pounds of luscious raspberry purée post-fermentation, delivering a strikingly unique pinkish-purple hue that’s as delightful to the eyes as it is to the taste buds. The grain bill is a harmonious balance of 50/50 Monte Vista, CO-grown wheat and 2-row barley, giving this beer a silky-smooth and easy-drinking body. Delicately hopped with floral German Tettnang hops, and fermented with a clean American Wheat Ale yeast strain, this beer is a celebration of crisp, bright flavors and a juicy, raspberry-forward finish. Just perfect for welcoming warmer days!

SEASONAL BEERS

italian mountain basil ale

6.1%ABV | 28 IBU’s

Gunnison’s beloved seasonal beer is back on tap! Italian Mountain Basil Ale is loaded with 13 pounds of fresh, organic basil that we “dry-hopped” both during and after primary fermentation. At its heart, this is a classic American pale ale, featuring late additions of Chinook and Cascade hops, balanced with a hearty malt backbone of Colorado-grown 2-row and caramel malt. Last, but not least, is the Vermont Sticky maple syrup added to the whirlpool that adds a subtle layer of sweetness and complexity. Grab a pint of this herbaceous beer while it lasts!

Signal Peak Shandy
lemon/tangerine german lager

4.4% ABV | 12 IBU’s

Another tasty treat for the start of summer! Starting with a traditional, easy-drinking German Lager brew, we added fresh lemon & tangerine puree and have come out with our MOST CRUSHABLE fruited light lager on tap to date. Using the most recently harvested Tettnanger hops and authentic German heirloom barley, this beer is undoubtedly crisp, clean, and tangy due to the citrus fruit additions without being overly sweet.

The Matron Barrel Aged Imperial Chocolate stout

11.4% ABV | 36 IBU’s
Dessert in a glass! One of our favorite liquids we produce- The Matron. We start with an Imperial Stout base and add copious amounts of Haitian cacao nibs that add notes of brown sugar, vanilla, and fudge to this already delicious beer. We then age it in DeerHammer American Single Malt Whiskey barrels for 12 months. The outcome is phenomenal! Flavors of burnt toffee, pecan, chocolate and rich vanilla are extracted from the aging process. Available in Crowlers® too!

Radiant Realm Hazy ipa

7.0% ABV | 35 IBU’s
A new beer from HABC! Radiant Realm brings together Krush and Enigma hops for a one of a kind hazy IPA. Huge stone fruit, citrus and diesel flavors are balanced with copious addtions of flaked wheat and oats. Very light on IBU's this beer is approachable even for non hopheads! Get yourself a glass!

town run american lite lager
5.0% ABV | 17 IBu’s

Town Run is brewed with the finest German heirloom barley that contributes bold malt flavor that we balanced with noble Hallertau Mittelfruh hops and a touch of non-GMO flaked maize. Enjoy this crisp, clean, and crushable light lager on your next town run on the Gunni!
