who says you cant have your dessert and drink it too?
Cannoli
Ice Cream Man
It’s not every day we turn 14...and it’s definitely not every day you can drink your dessert 😏!
Join us Saturday, August 8th as we celebrate another year of great beer, great people, and finding our way back.
We’ve got a couple things up our sleeves, but we’re letting Cannoli Ice Cream Man take center stage.
Cannoli Ice Cream Man takes everything you love about a fresh cannoli—sweet ricotta, crisp pastry, and a hint of vanilla—and pours it into our signature Ice Cream Man IPA. Dessert in a glass, available in cans for the very first time this Saturday!!
it's finally back!

Unicorn Farm is back for the party!
Packed with Nelson Sauvin hops, this IPA pours with aromas of white grape, tropical citrus, and subtle cotton candy, finishing soft, fruity, and incredibly drinkable.

everything you love about our porter...plus s'more.
S'morter
We started with the Porter you know and love, then layered in toasted marshmallow, milk chocolate, and graham cracker to capture the flavor of roasting s'mores around a summer campfire.
Rich, smooth, and just the right amount of indulgent, Smorter is making its first-ever appearance in cans.
Limited cans and draft (including nitro) are in the taproom!
she's back!
