💨 Pineapple Xpress is a dank, hoppy IPA featuring a bold blend of Citra and Mosaic hops, delivering juicy pineapple, bright citrus, and vibrant tropical fruit flavors.

Enhanced with Pineapple Express terpenes, it brings subtle earthy pine, a hint of spice, and just the right touch of dank aroma.

Each race is displayed on a dedicated 100” projection screen, along with the broadcast audio, so you won’t miss any of the action. This is the only thing we’re showing, no need to compete with anything else for screen time!

Now that we’ve got the projector set up in the taproom, we’re taking advantage of some afternoon start times to show a couple upcoming races. Meet up with friends to watch the race with a beer in hand, which sounds way more fun than home alone on the couch!

🌱 We brewed this American adjunct light lager with rice and Czech Saaz hops for a crisp, classic flavor with a subtle earthy, spicy character. Pouring a light golden color, Lawnmower Beer is a low-ABV crusher that’s equally enjoyable while working in the backyard or relaxing on the river.
