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

Simply a Lemonade

Slushee w/ Lemonade// Coconut Cream

Green Cheek has Slushees?! Yep! We sure do, Pally. We come up with a fresh flavor every week, so be sure to come on by and check out our latest creation! This week's slush is “Simply a Lemonade!” made with Lemonade, Coconut Cream & garnished with a lemon wheel!

6.0% ABV

*Smoky Piña-rita // Collab w/ Heritage BBQ*

A Smoked Pineapple Margarita -Inspired Hard Seltzer

Collab w/ @heritagebarbecue / A Smoked Pineapple Margarita-Inspired Hard Seltzer. We got together with our Forever Pallys™️… the Owners of Heritage Barbecue…Danny & Brenda Castillo! Danny and I spent a day smoking pineapples in his BBQ Pit at his spot in San Juan using mesquite wood, and then added those smoky piña’s to a 100% blue agave fermentation at our brewery in Orange. Then spent waaaay too much time getting the blend just right, but very excited where we ended up. The result is wonderfully heavy on the smoke, like some of my favorite mezcals, and hits with lots of fresh pineapple flavor on the palate as well. It’s intense, refreshing, and super sneaky at 12% abv. Pour over ice and split a can with your favorite Pally™️.

12.0% ABV

Summer G&T '25

A Gin & Tonic-Style Seltzer

summer g&t ‘25 // a gin & tonic-style hard seltzer, 12% abv conditioned on a bed of fresh spruce tips, and then hit with a dab of cane sugar sweetness, lime, tangerine, juniper, and quinine so that this thing sing songs of suuuuuuumer! not your classic g&t, where the juniper jumps out of the glass, but instead that juniper nestles in with those others ingredients as a compliment to create something more contemporary and oh so refreshing. served over ice with a lime wheel. draft only.

12.0% ABV

Flying South

Mexican-Style Lager

If you're looking for those Modelo vibes, without all the skunkiness, we've got you! This crusher hits light in all the ways you'd hope for, with just a dab of sweetness that pairs perfectly with some fresh squoze lime.

5.0% ABV

*Michelada*

For Those Who Know...

Oh...you came here looking for a description? So sorry Pally...you've just gotta know, ya know? Kidding! Our Michi Mix is crafted from scratch in house and served with one of our yummo light beers over ice & rimmed with secret blend of chili salt.

2.5% ABV

Pallyfornia

West Coast Pils w/ Mosaic, Rakau & NZ Casacade

Welcome to Pallyfornia, my Pallys™!!! For this one, we put a lot of attention into creating a wonderfully dry drinking experience, much like what you could experience with German Pils with it’s snappy bitterness, but with all the hop expression you would expect from the West Coast (best coast?)! Using our fresh lot of Mosaic (currently from the great @‌perraultfarms ) and a couple New Zealand wonders (from @‌freestylefarms ). Tasting notes: Think kiwi, lychee, blueberry, and the Devil’s Lettuce.

5.0% ABV

Doom Sludge

Black IPA w/Mosaic, Ekuanot & Chinook

The fire glowed beneath, steadfast and unyielding. The kettle boiled, it's breath heavy in the still air. Beneath the foam, a great aroma rose, rich and unrelenting. Then at last: hop upon hop, malt upon malt.  BLACK. Deep as the abyss, immeasurably smooth. A mountain of Mosaic loomed vast, crowned with a gate of clean, unerring bitterness. A tower of Ekuanot ascended, and the plains of Chinook stretched into shadowed infinity. They saw it: The Doom Sludge All thirst departed.

7.0% ABV

Member IPA?

West Coast IPA w/ Mosaic

'Member when your beer was clear? 'Member when it was bitter? 'Member when you didn’t have to ask if it was West Coast or Hazy? This beer is that beer. All Canadian barley and dry hopped with 100% Mosaic. You 'member?

7.0% ABV

Another Shade of Green

DDH California IPA w/ Mosaic, Nectaron & Citra Cryo

Another Shade of Green // DDH California IPA w/ Mosaic, Nectaron, Citra Cryo, 7.2% abv This week’s release is a mix of the best of what the pacific northwest has to offer with mosaic and citra cryo, along with our favorite lot of nectaron from our pals at @machops . We kept this one super pale in color, hit it generously on the hot side to get that grippy tannin structure on the palate, and doubled it up on the dry hop to get that flavor and aroma pop’n. Tasting notes? Think pineapple, tangerine, blueberry, and even a hit of kiwi.

7.2% ABV

Short On Time

DDH West Coast IPA w/ Mosaic, Citra, & Krush

You’re already 10 minutes late, and somehow the clock is moving faster than you are. Your keys have vanished, your phone’s at 7.2%, and traffic is absolutely not on your side!! Being short on time is practically your default setting, a thrilling combo of poor planning and relentless optimism. We know the feeling! That’s why we made a beer to embrace the chaos of never seeming to have enough time. Packed with Mosaic, Citra, and a dab of Krush. The result is wonderfully dry, but packed to the brim with hoppy flavors! Think fresh blueberries, hippies, grapefruit candy, and the most wonderful linger of sweet cannabis.

7.2% ABV

Starry Configurations

DDH Double Hazy IPA

Citra and Nelson reach out to the endless depths of your taste buds and hit ya with all the a wide range of juicy vibes (mango, orange, kiwi, and passionfruit).

9.1% ABV

Puncheon Project: Raspberry

A Barrel-Fermented Mixed-Culture Sour Beer w/Raspberries

We've been having some fun in the background with a lil' mixed culture project out of our very own The Rave Cave (aka our Costa Mesa spot) using puncheon (larger) sized barrels. Fermented first in barrels, second with raspberries, and third in kegs to create the carbonation naturally. Tasting notes by Papa: Appearance of a strawberry daquiri. Nose is fresh strawberries, fuzzy raspberries, lemon zest, and some light funk. Palate comes off like strawberry lemonade, supported with balanced oak tannin and brightly sharp acidity. The intensity of the fruit pops up front and then finishes tart, funky, and dry.

Mountain Moonlight

Wild Fields Brewhouse // Oatmeal Stout

It's a chilly night in the Sierras after a long hike. You sit back amongst the trees admiring a full moon shining across the mountain tops, trying to take in the natural beauty of this world. What a better brew to encapsulate that feeling than a bold, rich Oatmeal Stout. Dark as the night sky with a body and warmth that'll satisfy that craving we all get when winter comes. Oats give this beer a smooth texture that compliments roasted and chocolate flavors, reminding you of the last time you sat around a fire with friends.
