The aging process gives this dry, sparkling cider a depth and complexity of flavor that makes a perfect dinner companion for a wide variety of food. 8.4% ABV – VT

To Øl – Denmark:

  • To Øl Vanilje Maelk 12/375ml BOT – Imperial Vanilla Stout. Sweet, strong and still tasty as hell. Expect top notes of vanilla and sweet malts. 10.5% ABV – DK
  • To Øl Smoke On The Porter, Fire In The Rye 12/375ml BOT – An Imperial Porter, using Rauch Malt for a depth of smoke, a selection of Chillies for subtle smoky flavours and designed to light the fire under you, and a mix of both roasted and regular Rye Malt to spice things up further. 11.1% ABV – DK

BREWFIST Italian Ales:

  • Brewfist Trinidad El Pedro 12/330ml – Barleywine aged for a year in Pedro Ximenez barrels. Cooked fruit, dates, cork and brandy that can be smelled from a distance, it lulls the mouth leaving licorice and great flavor. Giant. 13.8% ABV – IT
  • Brewfist Trinidad El Fernando 12/330ml – Barleywine aged for a year in Port barrels. Fermented with Saison yeast, although it is the most alcoholic version, it presents overall a lot of balance. Fruit and wood dominate both on the nose and in the mouth. Exemplary. 14.4 ABV – IT
  • Brewfist Trinidad El Vasco 12/330ml – Barleywine aged for a year in Port barrels. The aroma is dominated by ripe pineapple and plum fruitiness and noble cellar rot. Wood, oxidation and a liquorish viscosity to the taste. Untamable. 11.7 ABV – IT

Rideway/Coniston Brewery – UK:

  • Ridgeway Santa’s Butt Winter Porter 12/500ml BOT – This special porter is made for winter — rich and warming, the way they like it in the North Pole. It was inspired by this famous line from a well-loved children’s story book: “And Santa sat on his great butt, drinking a hearty brew.” 6% ABV – UK
  • Ridgeway Criminally Bad Elf 12/330ml BOT – Outstanding English Barleywine. 10.5% ABV – UK
  • Ridgeway Bad King John 12/500ml – Incredible English dark ale. An unusual beer, it is neither a porter nor a stout, but a black ale. It is a proper English pale with the addition of heavily roasted grains. Only English hops are used, some of them later in the boil to leave behind essential oils and hop aroma. This beer tests the drinker’s senses – the eyes are saying it’s heavy, the mouth says it’s light, perhaps sometimes dangerously so…. 6% ABV – UK
  • Ridgeway Imperial Russian Stout 12/330ml BOT – Brewed only once a year. Slow, extended ageing before bottling differentiates this style from simply being a strong stout or porter. It makes Ridgeway Imperial Russian Stout considerably more vinous and sharp than an export stout. There is just that little nod towards a Lambic beer, with very roasty and very bitter flavors. The bitterness mellows over time in the bottle so the style is not intended to be overtly hoppy. 10% ABV – UK
  • Coniston Old Man Ale 12/500ml bottles – Old English Ales. A radically different beer… it has roast barley added to the pale and crystal malts. It has a deep burnished copper colour, a rich port wine aroma, a big chocolate and creamy malt palate and a dry, grainy, roasty finish balanced by hop bitterness and tart fruit. It is a remarkably complex beer that deepens and changes as you sip it. 4.8% ABV – UK
  • Weird Beard Black Christmas 24/330 ml  BOT – A wonderful Cranberry Christmas Stout. 4.5% ABV – UK

Brouwerij De Ranke – BELGIUM :

  • De Ranke Pere Noel 24/330ml BOT – Père Noël is a Christmas ale, though very different from any other Christmas ales you might know. While most Christmas ales are rich & sweet, this one is amber-coloured, 7% vol. Alc. strong and tastes quite bitter. The complex taste is completed with the addition of liquorice. In the recipe we can also find pale malt, Munich malt, Caramel malt, Brewers Gold hops and Hallertau hops. 7% ABV – BE
  • De Ranke Cuvee 6/750ml BOT – Cuvée De Ranke is a mixed fermentation, blended ale. A combination of barrel-aged beer and lambic. 70% Belgium sour ale with 30% lambic. 7% ABV – BE
  • De Ranke Grapevine Trebbiano d’Abruzzo Lambic 6/750ml BOT – Once a year De Ranke releases the marvellous ‘Grapevine’ series. This year sees the ‘Trebbiano d’Abruzzo’ edition, with red grapes from this famous Italian wine growing region being the star of the show, resting in the barrel mixed fermented beer to make for a wonderfully complex Fruit Lambic. A wine-like beer that explores the boundaries between beer and wine. 6.5% ABV – BE
  • De Ranke Kriek Audenaerde 6/750ml – Flanders Oud Bruin. This beer is inspired by the tradition of steeping whole cherries on old brown beer in the nearby city of Oudenaarde, where many producers were making it in the first half of the 20th century. This beer is inspired by the tradition of steeping whole cherries on old brown beer in the nearby city of Oudenaarde, where many producers were making it in the first half of the 20th century. 6.5% ABV – BE
  • De Ranke Mirakel 6/750ml – Delicious Gueuze. “The lambics used in this blend are one, two and three years old. Two of them are real lambics made by traditional producers of the valley of the Senne river. The third one is made in our own brewery and we’ve called it Spierelambic, after the tiny river that runs near the brewery. We love this style and decided to try to make it ourselves. that it seemed to work, was a miracle to us”. 5.5% ABV – BE

  • URBAN CHESTNUT STAMMTISCH 6/4/16oz CANS – German Pilsner. A “Stammtisch” is an informal group meeting held on a regular basis – more directly translating to ‘table for regulars’.

We think it’s the perfect accompaniment to any gathering. 5.4% ABV – MO

  • URBAN CHESTNUT STLIPA 6/4/16oz CANS – We pronounce it ‘sta-leep-ah’, you pronounce it how you like. STLIPA, an acronym for St. Louis India Pale Ale, is a well-balanced DIPA that uses Sterling, Cascade, Mt. Hood, Willamette, and Chinook hops. 8% ABV – MO
  • URBAN CHESTNUT SCHNICKELFRITZ 6/4/16oz CANS – Bavarian Weissbier. The unmistakable characteristics of this Bavarian Weissbier are achieved with a yeast that is decidedly fruity and phenolic. You may note clove, nutmeg or even vanilla and/or banana-like aromas and flavors. 5% ABV – MO
  • URBAN CHESTNUT Prickly Pear Ku’damm 6/4/16oz CANS – Prickly Pear Berliner Weisse. Prickly Pear Berliner Weisse is pale gold and hazy with clean, lemon-like tartness, light body and light doughy-ness. 4.2% ABV – MO

Backpocket Brewing to Continue the Legacy of Peace Tree Brewing’s Beloved Brands🍻

In a bold move reflecting a shared vision for excellence, collaboration and innovation in the craft beer industry, Backpocket Brewing is pleased to announce its acquisition of Peace Tree Brewing’s celebrated brands. This agreement ensures that Peace Tree’s beloved beers, including the award-winning Blonde Fatale, remain integral to lowa’s rich craft beer scene. After a 15 year run as a leader in the lowa Craft beer scene, Peace Tree Brewing of Knoxville, IA ceased operations in the Summer of 2024.

Peace Tree Brewing’s owner, Megan McKay, a pioneer in the lowa Craft Beer Industry, stated, “My commitment has always been to create exceptional beers that resonate with our community and beyond. Selling to Backpocket Brewing allows Peace Tree’s legacy to live on, ensuring that our cherished brands will be continued to be enjoyed.” Her dedication to the brand she painstakingly built has set benchmarks for quality and innovation, solidifying Peace Tree Brewing as a cornerstone of lowa’s craft brewing identity.

Blonde Fatale, Peace Tree’s flagship and a gateway beer for many new craft beer drinkers, has garnered acclaim and accolades, becoming a legacy brand in lowa and nationwide. Blonde Fatale was awarded a gold medal at the 2014 World Beer Cup and in 2023 was recognized by Untappd Community Awards as the #3 best Belgian-style blonde ale beer crafted in the United States. Known for its exquisite blend of flavors and consistent quality, Blonde Fatale is set for a grand re-entry into the market, inviting both loyal fans and new enthusiasts to experience it once again. Other Peace Tree brands will be introduced back into the market in the future with production being focused on the flagship brand initially.

“Taking on Peace Tree Brewing’s production is an incredible opportunity for us,” said Aaron Vargas [Owner, Backpocket Brewing]. “This acquisition not only enhances our offerings but also allows us to carry forward the hard work and dreams of the Peace Tree Brewing team, whose passion for lowa Craft Beer has inspired many.”

Production is underway & will be available mid-November.

Rideway/Coniston Brewery – UK:

  • Ridgeway Santa’s Butt Winter Porter 12/500ml BOT – This special porter is made for winter — rich and warming, the way they like it in the North Pole. It was inspired by this famous line from a well-loved children’s story book: “And Santa sat on his great butt, drinking a hearty brew.” 6% ABV – UK
  • Ridgeway Bad Elf 12/500 ml BOT – Hoppy Holiday Ale. Olde England meets the New World in this strong, warming winter IPA. A generous amount of famous English malt is masterfully balanced with 45 ounces of fresh hops per barrel. 4.5% ABV – UK
  • Ridgeway Criminally Bad Elf 12/330ml BOT – Outstanding English Barleywine. 10.5% ABV – UK
  • Ridgeway Insanely Bad Elf 24/330ml BOT – Imperial Red Ale. Claus took a thoughtful sip of a most warming red ale. “Perhaps sanity is overrated… Ho,ho,ho!” 11.2% ABV – UK
  • Ridgeway Lump of Coal 12/500ml BOT – Bittersweet chocolate stout is the best you could hope for in these dark times. Actually, come to think of it, considering how bad you’ve been, this little coal-black gem is more than you deserve for Christmas this year. 7.5% ABV – UK
  • Ridgeway Reindeer’s Revolt 12/500ml BOT – A golden-amber, hop-accented, English “winter warmer” brewed without spices. It’s lighter on the palate than the other Ridgeway holiday beers. 6% ABV – UK
  • Ridgeway Bad King John 12/500ml – Incredible English dark ale. An unusual beer, it is neither a porter nor a stout, but a black ale. It is a proper English pale with the addition of heavily roasted grains. Only English hops are used, some of them later in the boil to leave behind essential oils and hop aroma. This beer tests the drinker’s senses – the eyes are saying it’s heavy, the mouth says it’s light, perhaps sometimes dangerously so…. 6% ABV – UK
  • Ridgeway Imperial Russian Stout 12/330ml BOT – Brewed only once a year. Slow, extended ageing before bottling differentiates this style from simply being a strong stout or porter. It makes Ridgeway Imperial Russian Stout considerably more vinous and sharp than an export stout. There is just that little nod towards a Lambic beer, with very roasty and very bitter flavors. The bitterness mellows over time in the bottle so the style is not intended to be overtly hoppy. 10% ABV – UK
  • Coniston Old Man Ale 12/500ml bottles – Old English Ales. A radically different beer… it has roast barley added to the pale and crystal malts. It has a deep burnished copper colour, a rich port wine aroma, a big chocolate and creamy malt palate and a dry, grainy, roasty finish balanced by hop bitterness and tart fruit. It is a remarkably complex beer that deepens and changes as you sip it. 4.8% ABV – UK
  • Weird Beard Black Christmas 24/330 ml  BOT – A wonderful Cranberry Christmas Stout. 4.5% ABV – UK

Brasserie de Blaugies – BELGIUM :

  • Blaugies La Moneuse Speciale Noel 12/375ml BOT – Blaugies La Moneuse Speciale Noel 12/375ml BOT – A richer version of Cult Saison, La Moneuse for the Holidays. 8% ABV – BE
  • Blaugies Darbyste 12/375ml BOT – Darbyste, a drier, more flavorful variant of the traditional Belgian wit or blanche, is a saison made with wheat and fermented with fig juice. It comes from an old family recipe and is named for John Darby, a temperance preacher whose parishioners were oddly moved by a “soft drink” they claimed was just fig juice. At 5.8 percent, it’s a great summer beer – spritzy but full of character. Brasserie de Blaugies is truly a family operation. Founded in 1988, the brewery began with a husband and wife who prided themselves on brewing in small batches by hand-in the garage of their 300-year-old farmhouse, no less. In keeping with traditional brewing methods, all their beers are unfiltered and refermented in the bottle. 5.8% ABV – BE

Brouwerij De Ranke – BELGIUM :

  • De Ranke Pere Noel 24/330ml BOT – Père Noël is a Christmas ale, though very different from any other Christmas ales you might know. While most Christmas ales are rich & sweet, this one is amber-coloured, 7% vol. Alc. strong and tastes quite bitter. The complex taste is completed with the addition of liquorice. In the recipe we can also find pale malt, Munich malt, Caramel malt, Brewers Gold hops and Hallertau hops. 7% ABV – BE
  • De Ranke Cuvee 6/750ml BOT – Cuvée De Ranke is a mixed fermentation, blended ale. A combination of barrel-aged beer and lambic. 70% Belgium sour ale with 30% lambic. 7% ABV – BE
  • De Ranke Grapevine Trebbiano d’Abruzzo Lambic 6/750ml BOT – Once a year De Ranke releases the marvellous ‘Grapevine’ series. This year sees the ‘Trebbiano d’Abruzzo’ edition, with red grapes from this famous Italian wine growing region being the star of the show, resting in the barrel mixed fermented beer to make for a wonderfully complex Fruit Lambic. A wine-like beer that explores the boundaries between beer and wine. 6.5% ABV – BE
  • De Ranke Kriek Audenaerde 6/750ml – Flanders Oud Bruin. This beer is inspired by the tradition of steeping whole cherries on old brown beer in the nearby city of Oudenaarde, where many producers were making it in the first half of the 20th century. This beer is inspired by the tradition of steeping whole cherries on old brown beer in the nearby city of Oudenaarde, where many producers were making it in the first half of the 20th century. 6.5% ABV – BE
  • De Ranke Mirakel 6/750ml – Delicious Gueuze. “The lambics used in this blend are one, two and three years old. two of them are real lambics made by traditional producers of the valley of the senne river. The third one is made in our own brewery and we’ve called it Spierelambic, after the tiny river that runs near the brewery.
