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

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

Like Super Profound

A Japanese-Inspired Rice Lager

The healthy portion of rice used to make this one does freak’n wonders to the beer! It lightens up the body, and the color, and makes for what some Pallys would call suuuuuper criiiiiiiiiiiispy! It’s a beer made for literally EVERY occasion. Eating yummo food? Drink this. Going to your favorite brewpub to hang with Cheeky? This one! Showing your friends a magic trick where the beer continues to just “disappear”? This OOOOONE!!!

5.0% ABV

Living In the After

West Coast Pils w/ Mosaic, Citra & Simcoe

5.6% ABV

We're Listening

West Coast Pils w/ Citra & Mosaic

Yep, we hear you loud and clear! You've been asking for more super hoppy lagers, and we've got one more for you. Our West Coast Pilsner brings you all the big hoppy flavor and aroma that you like in IPA, but the drinkability and lower abv of what you're diggin' in a stronger Pils. This one gets hit with a heavy dry hop of Citra and Mosaic, and a sprinkle of Strata.

5.6% 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

Corpse Dance

DDH West Coast IPA w/ Krush Cryo, Rakau, Mosaic Cryo, & Neslon

When West Coast IPA died, the corpse just got up and danced! Started DJ’n too. At least that’s what we think happened. We weren’t actually even there, but a friend of ours said that’s how it went down, and so we believe it cause we want to believe it. I guess that makes us dreamers? Tasting notes? Think white grapefruit oils, fresh guava, and strawberry candy.

7.2% ABV

Nelson!!! (It's What We Like Here)

DDH West Coast IPA w/ 100% Nelson & Nelson Cryo

We cranked this batch up a bit, using this legit lot of Nelson Bliss, which is this fun project from @freestylehops where they harvest 1/2 of the lot early and 1/2 of the lot late and then blend it together to try create the best Nelson possible. So yeah, we used that! Along with a bunch of Nelson Cryo, and double dry hopped too, in order to try to create our own best Nelson character possible! Tasting notes? Think lovely NZ Sauv Blanc, fresh lime, and passion fruit.

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

DDH Sleepin' In

A 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

DDH Among Many

DDH Hazy IPA w/ Nelson, Ekuanot, Motueka, Mosaic, Strata & More...

Another fun project! We focused our attention on using a lot of different hop varieties, all at varying amounts, so that each variety could play to its own strength, all for the goal of trying to create a non-fruited beer, with as much vibrant fruit character as possible! Well, I'm happy to report, the experiment was a success and this time it’s double dry hopped! Tasting Notes: it’s a citrus salad, with all sorts of yummy bits of orange, lemon, and grapefruit popping out. The linger is all lychee and nectarine.

7.2% ABV

DDH The Other Brian

DDH DIPA w/ 100% Citra

Our favorite hazy double returns and gets double dry hopped with lots of Citra! The hops take center stage and hit with flavors of ripe mango, fresh squeezed orange juice, and pineapple candy too.

8.5% ABV

Fillin' Out the Empty Space '25

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 lot of Nelson from our good good Pallys™️ at @freestylehops for good measure. Tasting notes? Think of white grape juice, fresh kiwi and guava, and even some cotton candy. Insanely fun.

8.7% ABV

Just Two Things... Citra & El Dorado

DDH Hazy DIPA w/ Citra & El Dorado

Part of our little series of beers highlighting how the combination of two hop varieties can create something special together. We wanted to showcase our special lot of El Dorado from our friends at @‌cls_farms , and couple it with our hand selected Citra for a rad little pairing of greatness. Tasting notes? The result is super punchy, with layers of zesty lemon, Kerns Apricot, and pineapple rings.

8.7% ABV

Coco Mesa

Nitro Coconut Rye Stout

This lil cult favorite is finally making a comeback. Like taking a bite out of a coconut chocolate candy bar, it's full-bodied and a tad sweet from the use of chocolatey malted barley and a huge addition of real toasted coconut! Lightly shake the can a bit, and then pour fast into your favorite pint glass to experience all the creaminess that nitro brings to this tasty treat!

6.6% ABV

Vanilla Discussions

Collab w/ Side Project // A Side Project-style Imperial Stout Aged for 30 Months in Bourbon Barrels w/ Lots of Vanilla Beans

Our discussions with Cory King, the absolute legend from Side Project who is known for making some of the best bourbon barrel aged stouts in the game, continue! After 30 looooong months of barrel aging, we tasted through 13 different barrels and only picked the best of the best. We really loved how well the smaller thirty gallon oak barrels aged the most, and only selected 5 to use for this release. We then discussed Vanilla Beans, which Cory selected a blend of Vera Cruz and Ugandan Vanilla Beans, and we conditioned this one on the craziest amount of Vanilla Beans until it sang beautifully and loudly for us all to hear. Tasting notes? Think vanilla malts, caramel sauce, pipe tobacco, cake frosting, and chocolate nougat. $35 per 500ml Bottle. Limit 6pp.

16.2% ABV

*Guava In Berlin*

Berliner-Style 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

Salty Message

German-Style Sour w/ Pink Salt & Magnolia Tea

Our new school approach to this classic Leipzig Gose style, uses a mash of unmalted wheat and pilsner malt, as well a natural souring process, to create the perfect base to steep lots of rolled oolong tea that has been scented with magnolia flowers. It’s refreshingly sour and salty, with all the vibes of magnolia flowers and a jasmine-like character from sniff to sip.

4.5% 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
