WEATHERED (16.4%)

Hello my friend we meet again, it’s been a while, where should we begin? How about over a bottle of WEATHERED, a barrel-aged stout we brewed with our friends at Back Channel Brewing. Aged 26 months in Elijah Craig barrels, expect baker’s chocolate, crème brûlée, and a pleasant warmth lent by the barrels. When you see the signs, don’t stop dancing, ‘cause when you’re with me, I’m careless and I believe.

Sales for WEATHERED bottles go live tomorrow (Tuesday, 3/5) at 10AM online via TOAST (link in our bio) and will remain on sale, online, during our regular business hours until sold out.

WEATHERED will be sold as solo 375mL bottles, limit three bottles per person & proxies are absolutely allowed. Picking up for a proxy? Just be sure to have their name/order number ready for us when you’re picking up 🥰.

Draft pours and bottle pickup start at 11AM here in our Sherman Hill taproom on Friday, March 8 and may be picked up anytime during regular business hours by end of day Sunday, March 10.

Humble Forager coming back to Iowa via Abu Nawas!

Humble Forager will return to Iowa with Abu Nawas! Here’s more on this news courtesy of Humble Forager! Here’s more from Abu Nawas:

Good morning Iowa,

Call it Mektoub or Kismet, your lot in life, or fate, but sometimes the stars line up. We have known Austin and the beautiful humans north of us in Rochester, MN for over a decade. Our paths first crossed when we heard of these innovators foraging ingredients and making beer with it. Their Moto: Think Globally, Forage Locally, Live Humbly and Drink Adventurously! is very much in concurrence with ours.

It took over a decade but our paths have finally merged! We are thrilled, privileged and humbled (see what we did there?), but we’ll let them break the news.

‼️We are ecstatic to announce the return of Local 11 Lager this Friday, March 1st!

On February 28th, 1918 the International Association of Firefighters was born to support firefighters throughout the United States and Canada. More importantly, your Cedar Rapids Professional Firefighters were one of the first inaugural unions to come together in solidarity and charter with the IAFF. Our Cedar Rapids Professional Firefighters are collectively known as IAFF Local 11 as they were the 11th Union to sign with the IAFF. Now there are over 3,500 Locals internationally.

The love and dedication for our craft gets poured into every beverage. The same love and dedication that Local 11 has for serving our community, the City of Five Seasons.

With this collaboration, we offer a toast to those that came before us, those who serve today, and those who will follow this calling tomorrow.

You can show your support by drinking Local 11 Lager, an American Light Lager crafted from just barley, rice, and hops.

Part of the proceeds will be donated back to Local 11 to help sustain the efforts of serving our community for future generations to come.

4-packs and glassware will be available exclusively inside the Clock House taproom.

We can’t wait to share this beer with you! Cheers from Local 11 & Clock House Brewing🍻
