Our seasonal Dark L***r, LIFESBLOOD, makes its annual return!

Once again, we implemented spunding, a brewing technique that naturally carbonates the b**r during fermentation by attaching a spunding valve to a sealed fermenter to trap the CO2 produced by the yeast. This causes the liquid to become carbonated under pressure and produces a finer carbonation and improves flavor retention.

Brewed with a high-quality floor-malted Bohemian Dark malt layered with several roasted malts for a rich, roasted malt flavor with a crisp finish. One of our favorite seasonal L***rs! Ranked #34 in W**e Enthusiast’s Top 50 Beers of 2022.

On tap + 2/4pks to-go Friday + on shelves next week.

We're turning 10 this weekend!

OIB's 10th Anniversary and Oktoberfest are colliding again into one celebratory weekend - our 10th Annual Hoptoberversary! Ten years ago, we opened our doors not knowing exactly what we were building, just that we wanted to brew great b**r, compliment it with a tasty food menu, and build a neighborhood spot worth showing up for. From the first pour a decade ago to today, THANK YOU for making this place what it is!

Celebrating starts at noon on Friday, September 25th and runs through Sunday, September 27th, with the following specials:

• "Keep the Stein" special - A 0.5L Oktoberfest-branded ceramic stein of our Oktoberfest Märzen or Della Kölsch ($15, $5 refills)
• Special tapping - Barrel-Aged V.S.O.I.B. (2026) a 24-Month Buffalo Trace Barrel-Aged Imperial Stout infused with a variety of oak and toasts from Creative Oak. Includes oaks from trees in the Tronçais forest that are specifically grown to be used in only the finest Grand Cru wines of France. Collab with Revolution Brewing.
• German food specials
• German music
• Trevor in lederhosen - 10 years running (some traditions never die!)

No cover charge, no tickets needed. Dust off your lederhosen and dirndls and help us celebrate a decade at OIB. Prost to 10 years, and to many more!
