Shelter Shandy
Our Riverview Kölsch // 5.1 meets sparkling lemonade to start the summer off right! Made with traditional German Pilsner malt and Hallertau Mittelfruh hops, this Kölsch Style Ale has the perfect balance for a bright, thirst quenching and crushable beer. With sweet and hoppy aromas and maximum carbonation, we can’t think of a more perfect beer for a sunny day by the water.

Amplifier IPA
We like our music like we like our beer. Big, bold and loud. Just like the music rocking through our brewery, we turned the flavor up to 11 in Amplifier IPA. Big, juicy notes of citrus blast out of this can, creating some serious volts of flavor that pairs best with some loud, high-energy tunes. ABV 6.7. Available on draft and in 12 oz cans.
