Lemongrass Wild Rice – A very special variation of our award-winning Cream Ale Lemongrass Wild Rice is something to behold! To a base of Pilsen, Rye and Honey Malt, we add a cereal mash of Minnesota Wild Rice to create a clean, crisp fermenting beer. New Zealand Motueka Hops add a touch of bitterness and a bit of Citrus Fruitiness and Fresh Crushed Lemongrass give the signature flavor and aroma to this brew. Alcohol by volume – 5.3%
Black Licorice IPA – Our newest creation, this unique brew combines the floral, hoppy aspects of a Cascadian (Black) IPA with the rich flavors of Black Licorice. Pilsen, Vienna, debittered Black & Dark Roasted Wheat Malts create a base to which we add copious amounts of Amarillo and Mosaic Hops, then infuse this brew with Licorice Root and Star Anise to add that black licorice flavor. It’s surprisingly quaffable & interesting to boot! Alcohol by volume – 6.3%
Yellow Snow – (Zappa / New England Pale Ale). An Ode to one of our favorite legendary artist/musicians, Yellow Snow is hazy, smooth and a bit dank. This beer starts with a mix of Pilsen, Pale & Wheat Malts, plus Flaked Grains & Oats. Then it’s Hopped with Neomexicanus Hops – Sabro, Neo1 and our singer’s namesake Zappa Hops. Grapefruit zest adds even more citrus character to this incredible brew. Alcohol by Volume – 6.1%

Sweet Potato Stout – Our most award-winning brew, Sweet Potato Stout is the flagship beer of Badbrew Brewing Company.
