BLUEWOOD BREWING COMPANY
Barrel-Aged Bliss & Solitude
Blend 1 of Bliss & Solitude, the English Barleywine, rested for two years in Heaven Hill bourbon barrels. Filled in April 2020, these were the first barrels in the program. The final result provides rich toffee, caramel, and oak notes with the subtle warmth of whiskey. 12% ABV
Sparkly Bits
Our Kölsch, Sparkly Bits, is the epitome of crispy goodness. Perfectly refreshing for the Missouri summer months, Sparkly Bits has a mild hop bitterness with delicate stone fruit notes on the palate. 5.6% ABV
KC BIER COMPANY
Der Bauer
Der Bauer is a German-style interpretation of a traditional farmhouse ale brewed with German malt and dry-hopped with German Amarillo hops. This bier is a dry, crisp, and effervescent hazy golden ale with rustic fermentation notes and spicy hop aromas. Available starting June 15th for a limited time through Missouri and Kansas. 7.75% ABV
CROSSROADS BREWERY
Horned Owl
Horned Owl is an IPA with loads of stone and passion fruit flavors. Australian Galaxy hops, Mosaic hops from the American Northwest, and a strain of Kveik yeast harvested from traditional farms in Norway make this American IPA a perfect IPA for summer. 7.6% ABV www.crossroadsbrewery.net
WIRE ROAD BREWING COMPANY
Gunsmoke Black IPA
Hopped with Simcoe and Centennial hops, it gives piney and slightly citrusy notes. CARAFA special grains produce a rich dark color, rich body, and robust flavor without the bitterness of some black IPAs. ABV 6.7%
Day One Pale Ale
Day One Pale Ale is a crisp, easy drinker featured as a rotating hop beer. With a slightly fruity and “mixed berry” taste, Mosaic is the hop-of-choice for this single-hopped crowd pleaser. 6.5% ABV www.wireroadbrewing.com
WAGES BREWING COMPANY
Honorary Mexican Cerveza
Named for the founder who eats a lot of Mexican food and inspired by Mexican lagers, that paid homage to the traditional German Vienna style. Available once again throughout the summer. ABV 4.7%
Pistachio Wedding Cream Ale
Dropping at the end of July, roasted pistachios, vanilla, and a touch of pink sea salt makes this brew as special as the big day. Brewed for the head brewer’s wedding, sadly, the bride never got a drop. Now, the bride gets the first pint every time it goes on tap. 4.7%ABV
FRIENDSHIP BREWING COMPANY
New Hannibal Location, Late 2022
Friendship Brewing Company announces a new location in Hannibal, Missouri, opening in late 2022. However, before the craft brewery opens its doors, the property, formerly known as Mark Twain Brewing, will get a much-needed revamp.
Owners Brian Nolan and David Brewer believe that creating superior craft beer brings their motto to life; “Friends making beer, beer making friends.” The duo is eager to deliver the “everybody knows your name” vibe to Hannibal residents and tourists.
TURKEY CREEK BREWERY
Table Rock Coffee Roaster
An early summer collaboration brew with Table Rock Coffee Roaster. Turkey Creek Brewery Head Brewer Andy Guinn wanted to preserve the delicate features of a smooth and popular Kolsch-style lager blended with vibrant and exotic flavors of gently roasted Guatemalan and Ethiopian coffee beans provided by the owner and roast master Chris Richard. www.turkeycreekbrewery.com
