Like a Rolling Gnome

Like a Rolling Gnome

Belgian-Style IPA

7.5%

Gnomes love a friendly rolling race, which inspired them to roll together the lemongrass and clove esters from Belgian yeast with citrus and stone fruit notes from Amarillo and Zamba hops, then round things out with white grape and floral notes from Motueka dry hops. This crisp and effervescent Beligian-style IPA (or Hoppy Saison) is mildly bitter and complexly fruity with a nice dry finish.

Vespucci Dry Hopped Pilsner

Vespucci

Dry-Hopped Pilsner

5.0%

Amerigo Vespucci unwittingly gave rise to lager by bringing a cold-tolerant Patagonian yeast home to hybridize with Eurasian brewing yeast. We brewed Vespucci as a crisp, classic German Pilsner with a decidedly non-traditional small dry hop addition. Happy exploring!

Vespucci Connection

Dry Hopped Pilsner

5.4

In 1501 Amerigo Vespucci determined that South America was a separate continent—a fact far more important than most beer lovers realize. Unwittingly, explorers played matchmaker between a cold-tolerant yeast from Patagonia and a long-established Eurasian brewing yeast. The result of this liasion was the yeast used to ferment lager beer. We brewed Vespucci Connection as a classic German Pilsner with a small dry hop to celebrate this most positive of intercontinental connections

Coffee Chronicle

Coffee Stout

7.2

It’s time for our annual cold-steeped coffee stout – a luscious marriage of rich malt and freshly roasted coffee. Take note, this dark and heady stout is worth recounting.

Delusional Optimist

Hazy IPA

7.8% ABV

Starting a business requires a high degree of optimism, and sometimes, a certain disconnectedness from reality. Early on, one of Silver Branch’s founders was fondly nicknamed “Delusional Optimist” by his colleagues for the accuracy of his time estimates. We named this hazy IPA in his honor—and it only took twice as long as it was predicted it would take! Made with Citra “incognito” hop concentrates, Sabro Cryohops and Grüngeist and Hallertau Blanc, this beer will make you feel eternally optimistic!

Killer Castle

Keller Pils

5.0%

Traditionally a treat available only to brewers, Kellerbier comes straight from the tank without filtration or fining. It’s a bit more brash and hop-forward than the fully conditioned version version of the beer. Killer Castle delivers a burst of classic Saaz hop spice and meadow grass aromas balanced alongside pillowy malt

Silver Branch Brewing Beyond the Gnome World Saison

Beyond the Gnome World

Saison

4.9%

Silver Branch will stop at nothing as we sail to new horizons in search of beer excellence! Beyond the Gnome World is a classical saison, brewed with pilsner malt, Saaz hops, and a blend of Saison yeasts from two Belgian breweries! 2020 GABF Gold Medal Winner in the Classic Saison category.

Chronicle

Foreign Extra Stout

ABV 6.5%

Tropical stout has evolved as it has migrated from its Irish birthplace to being brewed in the American, African and Asian tropics. Silver Branch’s Chronicle continues that ongoing story. We’ve married smooth roast with luscious malt to give you a beer reminiscent of dark chocolate, rich caramel, and coffee. The addition of unrefined Colombian panela sugar gives Chronicle a distinct rummy toffee finish.

Glass Castle

Pilsener

ABV 5.0%

Flavorful and yet so crush-able. The delicate balance between bready malt and spicy and grassy Czech hops make it obvious why this beer inspired the lager revolution. Glass Castle is Silver Branch’s holy grail—getting this elusive style right reflects the passion we bring to the craft and science of brewing. Every time you have one you’ll wish you had another!

Obsidian Castle

Obsidian Castle

Tmavé Special

6.0%

Don’t let the black color fool you, this dark lager drinks smooth and malty, with mild chocolate notes rather than burnt or roasted malt flavors. A generous dose of Czech-grown Saaz hops round out the character of this stronger-than-average tmavé lezak.

Lost In the Fog

Gold Rush Lager

5.1%

Conceived in the mists of the San Francisco Bay during the gold rush years, this warm-fermented lager is toasty, slightly fruity, and refreshing. Made with traditional Northern Brewer hops, two-row, crystal, and coffee malts, it’s a perfect balance of drinkability and complexity.

Oktoberfest

Vienna Style Lager

5.6%

A classic reddish-amber Märzen long associated with celebrating the harvest season. Bready malt flavors with just enough spicy and floral hops for balance. Prost!

Heavenly Hell

Helles

5.0

Hell means pale in German, and Helles is a generic term for the ubiquitous pale lager served in Munich. This easy-drinking, mildly malty, low-hop Helles is the quintessential lawnmower beer. It’s Heavenly way to beat the Hellish heat!

Mondo Mundo Mexican-Style Vienna Lager

Mondo Mundo

Mexican-Style Vienna Lager

ABV 5.6%

Malty, smooth, and refreshing, with the slightest hint of toast from the dark malt, Mondo Mundo is inspired by the golden lager 19th century immigrants brought back from Vienna to Mexico City, which developed into the dark Mexican version we know and love today.

Gnome for the Holidays

Saison

7.6%

The Gnomes LOVE heading home for the holidays! We’ve brewed this strong saison with dark Belgian candi sugar for a bit of caramel complexity alongside the classic Saison pepper and spice yeast character. Bring some home this season.
