HAPPENINGS

A little #downtownfrederick love, with the shot at the spot - our Carroll Creek Pale Ale is as standout as it is bold. A West Coast-inspired brew that packs a mild punch with Citra, Amarillo, and Columbus hops. This pale ale offers a zesty burst of citrus and tropical fruit from the Citra, a touch of orange and pine from Amarillo, and a crisp bitterness from Columbus, all backed by a clean malt profile.

At the crossroads of hop-forward and easy-drinking, Carroll Creek is perfect for any occasion — whether you’re strolling along the creek, enjoying a local sunset, or just cracking one open after a long day. Smooth yet punchy, it’s the refreshing, hop-loaded brew that lets you glide through Summer with good vibes only. 😎

Nothing is as wild, as the Untamed. It’s back, better than ever, ready to make your Memorial Day, unmemorable. Seriously, a full blur. At 8% ABV, this precious Double Dry Hopped New Zealand IPA is capable of unleashing even the wildest of creatures, as smoothly as could be. Full write up ⤵️

Untamed Wilderness – Hazy Double IPA 8.0%
Vibrant, wild, and intensely aromatic, Untamed Wilderness explores the outer limits of flavor with 100% Freestyle-grown Nelson Sauvin hops. Expect a rush of white grape, gooseberry, and tropical dankness layered over a plush, full-bodied haze. Untamed Wilderness offers a bold yet harmonious experience—juicy, smooth, and subtly bitter, with the distinctive Sauvignon Blanc character that only Nelson can bring. A bold journey into hop terroir, straight from New Zealand’s finest.

Let’s rock the weekend, Frederick🤘🏼

See you soon. Cheers 🍻
So. Many. Choices. Choose wisely, choose all. ✊🏼
