FRUITY FRIDAY IS HERE.

Three refreshing, fruit-loaded crushers just landed to keep the summer vibes flowing:

Aguas Frescas | 6.6% ABV
A tart ale inspired by the classic taco stand drink, bursting with pineapple, prickly pear, and lime for maximum refreshment. Bright, juicy, and made for sunny days.

Seedless | 6.0% ABV
Back with a fresh new look! This tart and refreshing Gose blends watermelon + dragonfruit for the ultimate poolside crusher. Summer in a glass.

Blueberry Lemon Bubbs | 5.5% ABV
Oregon blueberry meets Sicilian lemon in this insanely refreshing hard seltzer combo. Sweet, citrusy, crisp, and dangerously easy to drink. It’s just better with a Bubbs.

Fresh cans, fruity flavors, and serious refreshment. Available now in taprooms and online!

We’re hosting a special pop-up featuring Mario’s Fish Tacos with their Ensenada-style fish tacos, paired with our Mosca Michelada. To round it out we also have some sweet treats from The Sugar Princess.
