FOUR SEASONS
The Four Seasons of Mother Earth is the top-tier of our beer program. Mostly barrel-aged, limited production, and exclusive distribution ensures the integrity of these unique, sought after concoctions. Occasionally collaborations with like-minded breweries are featured to provide a fun and creative outlet for our brewers that lead to special (and often impossible to recreate) handcrafted ales. This is the crème de la crème of our catalog.
CURRENT SEASON
SUMMER '23
COLLABORATION DIPA
Teaming up with our friends at Bale Breaker Brewing Co., we designed a banger of an IPA using Galaxy, Citra from an exceptional crop year, and HBC 586 - one of the most promising experimental varieties available which highlights big notes of peach, passionfruit, apricot and grapefruit. Expect a bitter, dry, and super clean brew with tons of mid-palate complexity, and a bright, hoppy finish.
8.5% ABV | 85 IBU
11.0% ABV | 40 IBU
WINTER '22
BBA S'MORES IMPERIAL STOUT
AFTER 12 FULL MONTHS IN BOURBON BARRELS, 4S took on a complex toasted barrel character that is further enhanced by dark, roasted malts. This brew drinks smooth with a thick body, jet black color, and brown lingering head. We also added a touch of cinnamon and dark chocolate during the whirlpool and marshmallow flavor after debarreling, which lends a graham cracker-like flavor for additional complexity. Enjoy this this campfire classic with friends and family. Best when slightly warmed.
11.5% ABV | 75 IBU
AUTUMN '22
BBA MAPLE & PECAN IMPERIAL STOUT
4S AUTUMN '22 WAS AN OPPORTUNITY to have fun with maple, a flavor that has few uses outside of big dessert-like beers. Notes of chocolate and coffee malts also create a rich environment that meld perfectly with sweet maple and nutty, earthy pecan. The mouthfeel is thick and luscious, and the aroma is like dessert-in-a-glass without over-the-top sweetness. Brown sugar is added late-boil to create a distinct brûlée finish.
