BEER & CIDER - Beer Bottles & Cans
Alchemist 'Focal Banger'
(16oz Can) 7 % ABV Unfiltered, unpasteurized, super dank. Citrus, tropical. Balanced and very drinkable. All Citra and Mosaic hops.
Alchemist 'Heady Topper'
(16oz Can) 8% ABV Heady Topper is not intended to be the strongest or most bitter DIPA. It is brewed to give you wave after wave of hop flavor without any astringent bitterness. Heady Topper is brewed with a proprietary blend of six hops — each imparting it's own unique flavor and aroma. There is just enough malt to give this beer some backbone, but not enough to take the hops away from the center stage.
Allagash 'White'
(12oz Can) 5.2% ABV Allagash White is a traditional Belgian-style witbier, and is an example of one of the few styles beers that was originally designed to be hazy. The beer's haze comes from a combination of yeast and proteins within the malt, oats, and wheat with which it's brewed.
Coors 'Banquet Beer'
(12 OZ Can) 5% ABV Coors Banquet, brewed in the Rockies for a uniquely crisp, clean, and drinkable beer.
Foam 'Blushing'
Guiness 'Extra Stout'
High Noon 'Peach'

Lawsons 'Sip Of Sunshine'
(16 oz Can) 8% ABV This lupulin-laden India Pale Ale is packed with juicy tropical fruit character, bright floral aromas and delectable layers of hop flavor.

Miller 'High Life'
(12 oz Bottle) 4.6% ABV A favorite among bartenders, brewers, and beer lovers in general, Miller High Life was launched as Miller Brewing Company’s flagship beer in 1903.

True to its original recipe, it’s brewed with a proprietary blend of malted barley, Galena hops from the Pacific Northwest, and Miller yeast.
