✪ Featured Breweries ✪
Aslin Summer Fruittata
Sour – Fruited / 6% ABV / 180 CAL / Alexandria, VA /
Summer Fruittata is a Sour Ale with Plum, Blueberry, Peach, Vanilla, and Milk Sugar. This dessert style Sour Ale is made to mimic the perfect summer fruit tart – bright, fruity, and slightly acidic with a delicious vanilla cream to balance it all out.
Bingo Beer Costa Chica
Lager – Amber / 5.3% ABV / 159 CAL / Richmond, VA /
Mexican Style Amber Lager
BrewDog 5AM Saint
Red Ale – American Amber / 5% ABV / 35 IBU / 150 CAL / Ellon, Aberdeenshire /
Buy the ticket, take the ride. 5AM Red Ale is 5 malts, 5 hops and 5% abv. But that’s where the order ends. Jump in and you’ll find berry bouncing off marmalade clashing with caramel cosying up to chocolate buzzing off spice sizzling with toast laced with lychee and colliding with biscuit. As malty as it is hoppy. As anarchic as it is structured. Bitterness and sweetness, all neatly messed up in a triumph of pure chaos. Perfect, baffling symmetry. Go fathom 5AM.
BrewDog USA Choco Cherry
Stout – Pastry / 7% ABV / 210 CAL / Canal Winchester, OH /
Chocolate Cherry Stout
Cervecería Hondureña Barena Export Beer
Lager – American / 4.6% ABV / 138 CAL / San Pedro Sula, Cortés Department /
Cigar City Brewing® Florida ManTM
IPA – Imperial / 9% ABV / 50 IBU / 270 CAL / Tampa, FL /
The world needs heroes, and in our home state of Florida only a very special hero will do. A hero with a shark tooth around his neck, a Grim Reaper tattoo on his arm, and a rap sheet longer than his mama’s mustache. A hero who’s forgotten more about amateur taxidermy and alligator rasslin’ than you’ll ever know. What better way to pay tribute to our beloved Florida Man than with a big ol’ Double India Pale Ale brewed with a nearly-criminal amount of hops and a moderate bitterness that just about matches Florida Man’s general disposition. This hopped-up whopper of a beer is big in character and guaranteed to sear itself into your memory, just like “the world’s worst superhero,” Florida Man.
Crooked Run Fermentation Raspberry Empress
Sour – Other / 6% ABV / 13 IBU / 180 CAL / Sterling, VA /
Our year-round kettle sour, hit with whirlpool Mosaic hops, and then tons of fresh raspberries and Mosaic hops in the tank. Refreshing and fruity.
Lost Rhino Shooter McMunn’s Irish Stout
Stout – Irish Dry / 4% ABV / 28 IBU / 120 CAL / Ashburn, VA /
Nepenthe Space Jellyfish
IPA – American / 7.1% ABV / 213 CAL / Baltimore, MD /
Brewed with barley, wheat, rye, oats, and just a touch of honey malt, we hammered this beer with Galaxy, Motueka, and Simcoe and double dry-hopped it with the same blend. Big notes of juicy tropical fruit, papaya, kumquat, and dank green tones are rounded out by a soft finish. The Space Jellyfish roams its alien landscape tonight.
Oskar Blues Brewery® Dale’s® Pale Ale
Pale Ale – American / 6.5% ABV / 65 IBU / 200 CAL / Longmont, CO /
This voluminously hopped mutha delivers a hoppy nose and assertive-but-balanced flavors of pale malts and citrusy floral hops from start to finish. Oskar Blues launched its canning ops in 2002, brewing and hand-canning Dale’s Pale Ale in the Lyons, Colorado, brewpub. America’s first-craft-canned mountain pale is a hearty, critically acclaimed trailblazer that changed the way craft beer fiends perceive portable beer
Right Proper Li’l Wit
Wheat Beer – Witbier / 5% ABV / 150 CAL / Washington, DC /
Li’l Wit is a refreshing Belgian-style White Ale brewed with an abundance of red wheat, white wheat, torrifed wheat, and oats. The beer was gently hopped with Tettnang and Perle, then finished with juniper and the classic spices coriander and orange peel.
Sierra Nevada Sunny Little Thing
Wheat Beer – Other / 5% ABV / 10 IBU / 150 CAL / Chico, CA /
Bask in the sunny little thing, a wheat ale made with citrus for radiant flavor that’s bold yet easy going, and balanced by a soft and smooth finish.
Sierra Nevada Wild Little Thing
Sour – Fruited / 5.5% ABV / 7 IBU / 165 CAL / Chico, CA /
This slightly sour Wild Little Thing has just the right smack of tartness for serious refreshment, while guava, hibiscus and strawberry lend fruity-sweet depth and a bright pop of color.
Silver Branch Glass Castle
Pilsner – Czech / 5% ABV / 150 CAL / Silver Spring, MD /
A delicate balance of spicy Czech hops and golden malt make Glass Castle flavorful, yet eminently drinkable. We use soft water, imported floor-malted barley, Saaz hops and traditional brewing techniques to give you a classic Bohemian Pilsener that is smooth yet flavorful.
Thin Man Super Freak
IPA – New England / 5.8% ABV / 174 CAL / Buffalo, NY /
This uber-crushable Hazy IPA has aromas of Lemon Peel, Grapefruit, and Mango. Boasting a clean and refreshing mouthfeel for radical consumption, the flavors follow lemon, lavender, honey, mango, and bitter orange.
Victory Berry Monkey
Belgian Tripel / 9.5% ABV / 285 CAL / Downingtown, PA /
Perfectly Fruited Sour Tripel Ale loaded with raspberries and other natural flavors that add just the right balance of sweetness & tang with a smooth finish. It’s undeniably berry good.

Brown Ale – English / 5.5% ABV / 25 IBU / 200 CAL / Tampa, FL /
Maduro is a Northern English-style brown ale with some American affectations. Maduro is higher in alcohol than the common English brown ale and features flaked oats in the malt bill which imparts a silky body and works to mesh the roasted, toasted and chocolate components together in Maduro’s complex malt profile. The end result is a remarkably full-flavored yet approachable and sessionable brown ale that pairs well with mild to medium cigars.

Their partnership has culminated in a beer of unparalleled quality, brewed in Virginia with renewable resources. Clean and crisp, with pleasant aromatics of fresh bread, a subtle underlying floral note from noble hops, and a touch of malt sweetness in the finish, this golden Munich-style helles lager is cold-conditioned for weeks, resulting in an exceptionally refreshing beer. We raise a glass to you, the remarkable people that make Virginia Tech what it is today. Go Hokies!!

History of Oktoberfest:
Oktoberfest is the world’s largest beer festival. Held annually in Munich, Bavaria, Germany, it is a folk festival running from mid or late September into October (this year it officially starts in Munich on September 21st), with more than 6 million people from around the world in attendance every year. Locally, it is often called the Wiesn, after the colloquial name for the fairgrounds (Theresienwiese). Oktoberfest is an important part of Bavarian culture, having been held since 1810.
Kronprinz (Crown Prince) Ludwig (1786-1868), later King Ludwig I (reign: 1825-1848), married Princess Therese of Saxe-Hildburghausen on October 12, 1810. The citizens of Munich were invited to attend the festivities held on the fields in front of the city gates to celebrate the royal event. The fields were named Theresienwiese (“Theresa’s Meadow”) in honour of the Crown Princess, and have kept that name ever since, although the locals have since abbreviated the name simply to the “Wiesn”. Horse races, in the tradition of the 15th century Scharlachrennen (Scarlet Race at Karlstor), were held on October 17 to honor the newlyweds. Every year since this tradition has been repeated and is now called “Oktoberfest”.
