6 • Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. • Pale Ale

It has a deep amber color and an exceptionally full-bodied, complex character. Generous quantities of premium Cascade hops give the Pale Ale its fragrant bouquet and spicy flavor.

7 • Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. • PILS

Pilsner - German • Chico, CA • 4.7% ABV • 25.0 IBUBright citrus and tangerine aromas rise from the glass, balanced with a subtle touch of sweet malt. Old world brewing meets craft innovation. Bringing together the craftsmanship of European brewing with distinctive American flavor.

8 • La Cumbre Brewing Company • A Slice of Hefen

Wheat Beer • Albuquerque, NM • 5.4% ABV • 15.0 IBUA traditional take on a Bavarian classic! Poured into a 23 oz. Hefe glass, this beer is served mit hefe with a voluminous white head. The aroma is everything we love in the style; clove, banana and vanilla. The body is rich and creamy, yet finishes fairly dry and is as refreshing as any beer you’ll drink here or anywhere else.

9 • Boulevard Brewing Co. • Tank 7

Farmhouse Ale - Saison • Kansas City, MO • 8.5% ABV • 38.0 IBUA traditional Belgian-style farmhouse ale, the perfect combination of elements came together in their #7 fermenter. You could call it fate, but they called it Tank 7, and so it is. Beginning with a big surge of fruity aromatics and grapefruit-hoppy notes, the flavor of this complex, straw-colored ale tapers off to a peppery, dry finish.

10 • RFA • Agent Scully - S6E10

IPA - Farmhouse • Santa Fe, NM • 6.6% ABV • 66.0 IBUAgent Scully has been in an extended funk, suffering from chiller failure depression. After said extended hiatus, she finally got off her lazy ass and pulled herself up by the bootstraps and decided to do something about this lack of a chiller. She can't force the accountants to pay for an expensive chiller replacement, but she can be creative and brew around her equipment problems. She decided to call the good folks at Bootleg Biology and get a fresh pitch of Oslo kveik yeast, which can be fermented warm and therefore doesn't rely on that POS chiller. She went with Amarillo and Nelson hops and kicked up the bitterness to 66 IBU's (Tinseth). The result is a funky little devil of an IPA. Give her props for working through her depression and adapting to the situation. Cheers!

11 • La Cumbre Brewing Company • Italian Pilsner

Pilsner - Italian • Albuquerque, NM • 5.0% ABV • 45.0 IBUSpicy floral hops goodness and bone dry finish

12 • Firestone Walker Brewing Company • DBA

Pale Ale - English • Paso Robles, CA • 5.0% ABV • 30.0 IBUA British Pale Ale never tasted so fresh. We challenge our good friends across the pond to match this one. We've honored the traditions of the great British Pale brewers of Burton-on-Trent using our patented Firestone Union oak barrels. You're left with a mild blend of vanilla and toasted oak flavor touched with an elegant hint of English noble hops. DBA is the flagship of our company and wildly popular.

13 • RFA • Stalker

Farmhouse Ale - Other • Santa Fe, NM • 7.0% ABV • 15.0 IBUStalker is our homage to the lovely biere de miel, and was brewed with our house mixed culture and a healthy dose of orange blossom honey.

15 • Boulevard Brewing Co. • Bourbon Barrel Quad

Quadrupel • Kansas City, MO • 12.2% ABV • 26.0 IBUBased loosely on the Smokestack Series’ The Sixth Glass, this abbey-style quadrupel is separated into a number of oak bourbon barrels where it ages for varying lengths of time, some for up to three years. Cherries are added to make up for the “angel's share” of beer lost during barrel aging. Selected barrels are then blended for optimum flavor. The resulting beer retains only very subtle cherry characteristics, with toffee and vanilla notes coming to the fore.

16 • La Cumbre Brewing Company • Project Dank Radio Edition

IPA • Albuquerque, NM • 7.5% ABV • 100.0 IBUSimcoe, Eukanot, Citra

17 • • Saison Dupont

Saison • Leuze-en-Hainaut, Région Wallonne • 6.5% ABV • 30.0 IBUSaison Dupont is a world classic beer and the yardstick for one of Belgium’s most important beer styles. It is the most admired AND imitated Saison in the world. A strong, vital yeast is key to full attenuation and thus to the style. Saison Dupont is straw colored with a dense creamy head. The nose is alive, like fresh raised bread, estery with citrus and spice notes. Full-bodied and malty, it sparkles on the palate and finishes with a zesty hop and citrus attack. Incredibly compatible with food!

18 • Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. • Hazy Little Thing

IPA - New England / Hazy • Chico, CA • 6.7% ABV • 35.0 IBUAs brewers, we get the privilege to sample our beers straight from the tanks in all their raw glory. Some beers need a little polishing to get ready to go out into the world, while others—the hop-heavy, rowdy, crowd-pleasers—should just be left alone. We wanted to share this brewery-only treat with you, so we present this Hazy Little Thing, our unfiltered, unprocessed IPA, straight from the tanks and into the can.

19 • RFA • Tea for Two

Farmhouse Ale - Saison • Santa Fe, NM • 5.5% ABV • 14.0 IBUTea for Two is a house mixed culture fermented saison that we brewed with continental 6-row spring barley, Sonoran white wheat, Belgian Aromatic and flaked oats. We bittered it lightly to 14 IBU's so that it might see a bit of tartness from our house mixed culture over time. Lastly, we dry-hopped it with a healthy dose of Indonesian Earl Grey tea obtained from our good friend, and tea specialist, Marshall Maez. Raise a pinky if you like. Cheers!

20 • RFA • Ned Ryerson - Colkegan BBL

Barleywine • Santa Fe, NM • 14.0% ABV • 44.0 IBUNed Ryerson - Colkegan Barrel is our base barrel-aged "Ned" beer, which consists our 30% rye barleywine Ned Ryerson, but aged in freshly dumped Colkegan barrels for 16 months. Smooth operator operating correctly. Hang on, hombre!

21 • RFA • Germophile - Double Raspberry

Sour • Santa Fe, NM • 5.0% ABV • 5.0 IBUGermophile celebrates our love for souring bacteria, specifically Lactobacillus in this case. It is our core Berliner Weissbier, and is brewed with a 50/50 blend of Weyermann Extra Pale Pilsner malt and malted white wheat, and is soured with Lactobacillus. We then finish the beer with Thiriez yeast, resulting in a dry and tart refreshing beer. In this variant, we double dosed our normal Germophile with 4 pounds per gallon of raspberries, and keg condition the resulting beer. Holy raspberry Batman!

22 • RFA • Fields of Rye

Farmhouse Ale - Saison • Santa Fe, NM • 6.0% ABV • 15.0 IBUFields of Rye is a foeder-fermented neoclassic rye saison, and is a core offering for us here at Rowley Farmhouse Ales. After experimenting with this beer for over 2 years now, we've come up with a recipe that we are in love with, and are now going to be offering on a regular basis. We've had this beer as a rotating beer that changed along with the seasons, but we've decided to hold this beer in its' current configuration, and make other saisons to celebrate the seasonal changes. How great is that? Fields of Rye is brewed with a healthy charge of malted rye and is bittered to 15 IBU's with Magnum, then gently whirlpool hopped with Slovenian Styrian Goldings, which is an aroma hop with a resinous and earthy flavor profile that exhibits soft notes of white pepper. It finishes dry, as we fermented it with the Brasserie Thiriez yeast strain. Pair this lovely beer up with bloomy-rind cheeses, Bouillabaisse, a big bowl of mussels, smoked meats, or a slice of lemon meringue pie. Cheers!

23 • RFA • Mountain of Light - Riwaka

Sour - Gose • Santa Fe, NM • 4.5% ABV • 12.0 IBUMountain of Light is our foeder-fermented and bulk aged gose-style wheat beer. It is brewed with a large percentage of Mecca Grade Shaniko, Alvarado, and Wickiup wheats, along with Weyermann Extra Pale Pils basemalt. We sour the beer with our house lactobacillus strain, then ferment it using a healthy pitch of Dupont yeast. It then sees the resident house mixed culture embedded in our foeder wood interstices and is allowed to meld into a finished product over an extended period of time. It features a light touch salinity from Pacific sea salt added to the mash, lemony sourness from the lactobacillus fermentation, and a light touch of funk from the wood contact. It's light but complex, and ultimately refreshing. To this specific beer, we dry-hopped the base beer with New Zealand Riwaka hops. The Riwaka flavor profile is dominated by strong grapefruit zest, passion fruit, lime, and sometimes subtle pine or dank, woody notes. Cheers, Santa Fe!

24 • RFA • Germophile - GABF Silver Medal

Berliner Weisse • Santa Fe, NM • 5.0% ABV • 5.0 IBUGermophile celebrates our love for souring bacteria, specifically Lactobacillus in this case. It is our core Berlin-Style Weissbier, and is brewed with a 50/50 blend of continental pilsner malt and malted white wheat, and is soured with Lactobacillus. We then finish the beer with a neutral ale yeast, resulting in a dry and tart refreshing beer. This beer won silver at the 2018 GABF in the Berliner-Style Weisse category, which we were very proud of. Prosit!

RFA • Supernatant

Sour - Grüner Veltliner lees • Santa Fe, NM • 8.0% ABV • 5.0 IBUSupernantant is a heftier version of our Germophile base, that starts out via souring with the same lactobacillus strain we use in Germophile fermentations, but then we finish this beefy beer with a dose of Norwegian Farmhouse yeast, which is a Kveik type strain. We then rack the beer onto a healthy charge of Grüner Veltliner lees from our good friends at Vivac Winery up in Dixon. After an extended aging period on these lees, we then bottled this beer with Alfalfa honey. The result is a crisp and funky sour ale that is best enjoyed with a big chunk of soft rind cheese and good friends. Cheers! Lastly, some details: pH = 3.34, TA = 12.9 g/L

RFA • True to Caricature

Sour - Other • Santa Fe, NM • 7.0% ABV • 12.0 IBUTrue to Caricature is a beer we brewed with our friend Nate from Free Will Brewing in Perkasie, Pennsylvania. Nate is one of the top mixed fermentation brewers in the country, and we are proud to have brewed with him. If you're ever out that way, be sure to try his beer. You'll thank us later! True to Caricature is a beer that was co-fermented using both of our house mixed cultures in stainless steel, then gently aged in Santa Fe Spirits Atapino casks, along with Atapino-soaked piñon nuts. It exhibits a bright lemon acidity on the front of the palate, followed by delicate notes of pine and a creamy vanilla note in the finish. Special thanks to the amazing Em Sauter (@pintsandpanels) for the fun caricature! Cheers!

RFA • Western Lights - Estate Montmorency Cherry

• Santa Fe, NM • 6.2% ABV • 22.0 IBUWestern Lights is a long time coming collaboration with our good friend Kyle from Horus Aged Ales. We weren't happy with the initial batch, as the so we dialed in the recipe with lessons learned from the first brew, then racked the beer into freshly dumped sauvignon blanc barriques back in April of '22. The resulting saison is quite exquisite! We took an aliquot of this lovely base then aged it on organic Montmorency cherries that we picked off our own trees last summer. To call our humble little lot an estate is a stretch, but it sounds good doesn't it? Cheers!
