    Tonight's the night! Join us at Medusa for our November throwdown. The tap list looks epic!

    CASK SPECIAL - SOLO PROJECT: GRÜNGEIST
    Single Hop American Pale Ale - 5.5%
    The next beer in our single hop Solo Project series of American Pale Ales, featuring an interesting new German variety called Grüngeist, which exhibits some floral character alongside delicate notes of peach, lemon, and passionfruit.

    INVOCATOR
    Doppelbock - 9.1%
    This rich, dark-brown lager has been concocted from imported German Pilsner, Munich, and Caramunich malts. Hopped with German Merkur and conditioned for two months for a smooth finish.

    BOURBON BARREL-AGED STOUT LAD
    American Stout - 6.6%
    Big bittersweet chocolate and roasted malt character, supported by a blend of Northern Brewer and Centennial hops, then conditioned for several months in a Weller Antique bourbon barrel.

    BOURBON BARREL-AGED OLD CONFUSTIBLE
    English Old Ale - 8.2%
    A rich, amber, English-style beer with notable dark fruit/caramel/toffee character. An ale of deceptive strength, having mellowed considerably during an extended period of conditioning. Several months of aging in a Weller Antique bourbon barrel has added additional whiskey notes and has further accentuated the dark fruit character of the original beer.

    HIDDEN CITY
    American IPA - 6.7%
    This hoppy concoction prominently features El Dorado hops, lending distinct tropical fruit character, while Mosaic and Citra provide a background of citrus and herbal notes.

    LASER KITTEN
    Session IPA - 4.3%
    Laser Cat's gentler sibling may arrive at session strength, but it still packs plenty of Citra and Mosaic hops for a citrusy, fruity punch.

    OMEGA ALPHA
    Imperial IPA - 9.0%
    A revelatory experience of Cascade, Simcoe, Mosaic, Galaxy and Meridian hops. Big notes of grapefruit, pine, and some tropical fruits, with a firm bitterness and a strong backbone of pale malts.

    LASER CAT
    Imperial IPA - 8.0%
    Built from New England-grown 2-row malt, German wheat, and Patagonian crystal malts, this concoction is dry-hopped with absurd amounts of Citra and Nugget, and is loaded with plenty of dense citrus, tropical fruit, and herbal notes to assault your hop-loving senses!

    LUMINARY
    Cream Ale - 5.6%
    Crisp, and refreshing. A light-bodied ale, brewed with German Pilsner malt, organic brown rice, and German Mandarina Bavaria hops.

    BAD OMEN
    Belgian Pale Ale w/Cherries and Raspberries - 7.5%
    BAD OMEN is our Belgian Pale Ale GOOD OMEN, augmented with an addition of over eighty pounds of raspberries and cherries. Fermented to dryness, slightly tart.

    DUBBEL ENTENDRE
    Belgian Dubbel - 7.5%
    A deep amber ale with dark fruit and caramel character. A classic Trappist yeast strain accents this rich concoction.

    BULLROARER
    Australian Sparkling Ale - 6.0%
    Brewed entirely with Australian Pride of Ringwood hops, this strong pale ale's toasty, bready malt character and subtle fruitiness are accentuated by a yeast strain sourced from a popular brewery Down Under.

    STEADY ABBOT
    Patersbier - 4.3%
    A traditional Belgian-style table beer, made with a blend of continental pilsner and Belgian toasted malts. Light and dry, with classic Trappist esters.
