LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT OUR BEERS...

BEERS BY US!

Lavender Lemonade

Sparkling Hard Seltzer w/ Lavender & Lemon

We’ve got some Hard Lemonade for sale! And look at that color! That beautiful, natural color comes from the use of an insane amount of lavender pods that we use to brew a ginormous, fresh batch of lavender tea, that then gets blended with our lemonade-style seltzer. It drinks pretty balanced, with the acidity and sweetness hitting at just the right level, and then a soft tannic hit of dryness from the lavender. Enjoy straight out of the can, or pour over ice. Also legit with a dram of Old Tom Gin.

5.0% ABV

Pierre's Paloma

A Paloma-Style Hard Seltzer

Inspired by the Paloma cocktail, Pierre has been hard at work these last few months trying to create the most perfect version of this yummo refresher using only the purest ingredients. Pink grapefruit juice, lots of grapefruit zest, and cane sugar come together with just the right amount of booze, acidity, and richness for that perfect sip of vacation vibes. You can enjoy this one at our spot, or take home cans to enjoy at yours. Served with a 'lil ice and a fresh grapefruit wheel.

6.0% ABV

More Special

An 11° Czech-style Pilsner w/ Saaz hops

We’re in looooooove with these beers and are so excited to present ya with a new one! When compared to German Pils, our Czech-style Pilsner is fuller bodied, a bit richer tasting, and has more maltiness. It’s overall a more balanced drinking experienced, with a delicate snap of bitterness in the finish that keeps ya drink’n. We really hope you dig it!

4.6% ABV

Oh Yeah, No...Totally!

An Almost Authentic German-Style Pils

Brewed and filtered completely completely on our own at our spot in Costa Mesa , we did our usual thing, and used all German-grown malt and hops for the ultimate ALMOST AUTHENTIC-NESS! The bitterness is full and hits every little crevice of your palate, but remains snappy and doesn't overwhelm. German grown Saphir hops take center stage, and show off a pleasant herbal quality that lingers into the finish.

5.2% ABV

Vienna Lager

An Austrian-style Amber Lager

The heavy base of Vienna malt sings the loudest out of this complicated and layered malt bill that includes only German grown malted barley. The malt derived flavors of graham cracker, toasted wheat bread, and candied walnuts may sound like a beer big enough to chew on, but instead the sweetness is restrained and drinkability remains present. You’ll get just a dab of mid-palate sweetness in the sip that all gets washed away in the crisp finish. Ps. It’s a lager!

5.2% ABV

Safety Jacket

A Non-Alcoholic West Coast IPA w/ Citra, Krush, & Nelson

Whether it’s your normal thing, or a new thing, this NA offering should check a box that you’ve been seeking if ya miss sip’n on West Coast IPA’s! Only clocking in at point four percent, we worked our lil buns off to make an IPA that is beautifully clear, wonderfully bitter, and full of hoppy aromas and flavor! Tasting notes? Think cactus cooler, zesty citrus, and lots of super fresh Mary Jane.

0.3% ABV

You Can't Be Fancy All the Time

Collab w/ Breakside // A Breakside-Style Rice IPA w/ Krush Cryo, Mosaic, Riwaka, & Pineapple Terps

Look, you can’t be fancy aaaaaall the time. Sometimes you just gotta cook at home to save a handful of Benjamin’s, instead of eating at Noma for the 5th night in a row! So, Ben Edmunds and your favorite Pallys™️ at Green Cheek kept ourselves in line on this batch of WCIPA, and didn’t go double (or even triple) dry hopped so that we could keep that pricing at the right spot for ya’ll. We used a bunch of rice to create a VERY pale color and a light bodied base, and poured in all the yummiest hops we could get our hands on, along with this yummo new hop/botanical liquid to keep those aromatics HIGH. Tasting notes? Think fresh kiwi, pineapple whips, and fresh yuzu.

6.8% ABV

Perpetual Noodle'n

West Coast IPA w/ Mosaic, Citra & Strata

You know your pals over here at GC can't stop noodle'n about all the different ways to hit an IPA. Can't stop. Won't stop. This one is richer and fuller than some of our other West Coasts, with a pleasant dab of hoppy resin in the linger. Flavor profile? Think blueberry muffins, spruce tips and fresh cut strawberries.

7.2% ABV

Pet the Tiger '25

California IPA w/ Citra & Mosaic

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! We don't mean to cause a panic, but this tiger is on the loose! He’s got a pretty good bite and stinks of the best hops around! But don’t you worry, I swear he can be tamed...like, suuuuuuper easily. All it takes is a little pet-pet. Citra and Mosaic take center stage with this clear and bitter IPA, where we’re using some of the best Citra we’ve ever smelled! Dry, with a full bitterness that isn’t harsh, and hits with hoppy layers of fresh squeezed orange juice, super ripe mango, and a little squeeze of grapefruit oil.

7.2% ABV

I Knew That Years Ago

California DIPA w/ Mosaic, Citra Cryo, and Simcoe Cryo

Son: Look, Dad, I'm not looking for another diatribe about how awesome clear beer is, but can you tell me what we've got here? Dad: Well, it's clear and bitter, and doesn't use any crystal malt so the hops shine like crazy! Smells like ripe cantoloupe, fresh spun cotton candy, and those white gummy bears that you love so much. It's got a full hoppy bitterness that hits from the initial sip, and a dab of hop resin that lingers into the clean finish. Son: I don't get it. Dad: You never will.

9.2% ABV

Don't Pet the Tiger '25

California TIPA w/ Citra & Mosaic

Woah! Slow down there friendo! This tough tiger has a bit of a bite! Now… we’re not saying that you can’t say hello, just be sure to take it slow and make no sudden movements. It’s the Super Imperial version of Pet The Tiger, with Citra & Mosaic, and some Krush Cryo, in this humungous IPA. Full-bodied, with plenty of clean bitterness, some sticky hop resin, and a flavor/aroma explosion of; cotton candy, orange marmalade, and pineapple sorbet.

10.3% ABV

Forced Optimism

Hazy IPA w/ lots of Citra & a lil bit of Idaho 7

We convinced ourselves that Idaho 7 could potentially play nicely with Citra if used at the right amount, and added at the right time. Well, let me tell you, we were right! The Idaho 7 adds a rich layer of hoppiness that stays underneath all the Citra, and doesn't overwhelm all the mango and orange soda vibes we are looking for.

6.8% ABV

DDH Sleepin' In

DDH Hazy IPA w/ Citra, Mosaic & Strata

Maybe it was a missed opportunity naming this one DDH Sleepn' in, and we should have went with Even More Sleep, or like Extra Sleep’n In or something, but either way, we knew we liked this beer and hop combo, but just wanted more out of it! So, here’s a beer with mostly Citra, a good amount of Strata, and a sprinkle of Mosaic. Tasting notes? Think fresh strawberries and orange bang.

7.0% ABV

Bar Rat

Collab w/ Fast Fashion // DDH Hazy DIPA w/ Citra, Nelson, Peacharine, & Anchovy Hops

Our good good Pally™️ Matt Storm of Fast Fashion paid us a visit a few weeks back to make this yummo beer with us! Loaded with Citra, Nelson, Peacharine, and sprinkled with Anchovy hops, this one is wonderfully pale in color, and bursting with a rad mix of fresh citrus and tropical fruits.

8.5% ABV

Fillin' Out The Empty Space

DDH Hazy DIPA w/ Phantasm & lots of Nelson

Built on a base of raw wheat, old fashioned oats, and super pale pilsner malt, we used those neat little freeze dried Sauvignon Blanc skins from New Zealand (Phantasm) in this one, as well as a yeast strain that makes those neat little things explode with craaaaaaazy aromatics! Oh! And then we also double dry hopped with our hand selected Citra & El Dorado for good measure. Tasting notes? Think of white grape juice, fresh guava, mango skin, and pineapple candy. Insanely fun.

8.7% ABV

More Bark Less Bite '25

Collab w/ Alvarado Street // DDH Hazy TIPA w/ Citra & Riwaka

Team’n up with our central coast Pally™, JC of the always delicious Alvarado Street, for another version of this one. JC was kind enough to send us down his favorite lot of New Zealand grown Riwaka, and we combined that with our favorite lot of Citra. The combination of Mango from the Citra, and passionfruit from the Riwaka is so legit! Tasting Notes? Think kiwi, passionfruit, and mango.

10.3% ABV

Guava In Berlin

Berliner Weisse w/ Guava

Get all those vacationy vibes locked in with the return of this pink wonder. It's our beloved Berliner-style Weisse with an insane amount of real guava added to it during fermentation. It proudly remains super sessionable and lovingly tart and juicy, with lots of fresh Guava aromatics and flavor.

3.5% ABV

Calamosa

A Mimosa-Inspired Barrel Fermented Sour Beer w/ Calamansi (Citrus)

Our lil “Puncheon Project” out of The Rave Cave in Costa Mesa is finally bearing fruit! Dreamed up by our brewing team leaders, Petey and Papa, this one is brewed with raw wheat and spelt, gets barrel fermented with our house mixed culture, hit with calamansi juice, blended to our liking, and then naturally carbonated in kegs for months until it SINGS! Inspired by day drinking mimosas on a Sunday, the calamansi citrus is front and center, with a depth of refreshing sourness and a pleasant oak tannin structure. Tasting notes? Think squirt vibes, nectarine, sandalwood, and lemon gushers.

5.0% ABV

New Adventures: Nitro

Nitro Golden Milk Stout w/ Portola Coffee

We teamed up with our bud, Jeff Duggan of Portola Coffee, to bring you something that looks like a blonde ale, but tastes like a coffee milk stout! It’s full-bodied, creamy like a Portola cappuccino, and hits with flavors of fresh baked chocolate chip cookies, toasted almonds, and coffee, yep, lots of coffee! Each can is ON NITRO, so you’ll want to give it a light shake back and forth, crack it open, and then pour fast, down the side of your pint glass. *contains lactose*

5.4% ABV

BEERS BY OUR BUDS!

Mahrs Bräu

Helles Lager

Kannst nix falsch machen: Des Helle schmeckt immer. Geradeaus und geradean – unser Helles ist kein Trunk für viele Worte, sondern ein ehrliches, direktes Bier. Doch lieber a weng philosophisch? Aber bittesehr: Obendrauf sahnig, untendrunter goldgelb, innendrin mild, feinwürzig und mit einer leichten Süße. Aber schon auch mit einer gewissen Hopfenblume. Und von einer Malzigkeit im Ausklang, die einem sofort Lust aufs nächste Seidla macht. Hopfen: Hallertauer Herkules, Hallertauer Mittelfrüh

Coleman to the Max // DDH West Coast IPA w/ Amarillo, Mosaic, and Simcoe

It’s the finale of our Hop Grower Series - Coleman to the Max! We cranked this DDH West Coast IPA all the way up to max with Amarillo, Mosaic, and Simcoe all grown by our friends at Coleman Hops. Tune into aromas of overripe peach, passion fruit and dank blueberry as you crack open a can. Upon sipping, expect flavors of peach right off the tree, resinous evergreen, a dash of citrus and a snappy, dry finish. Shall we hit replay?
