czech pivo
PITCH LINED PILS
Czech Pils || 4.4% || Czech Mug || 12° P
Taste: Resin, malty, spicy
Notes: For Pitch Lined Pils we employed traditional Czech brewing methods of double decoction, open fermentation, natural carbonation, and extended lagering times (four months) in pitch lined wooden lagering barrels in our Salem brewery.
THE STANDARD
Czech Pils || 4.4% || Czech Mug || 12° P
Taste: Lemon, Malty Sweetness, Bread
Notes: Classic Czech pale lager, brewed with floor-malted Pils malt and Sterling hops. Double decoction, open fermentation, and extended lagering time bring a bit of Plzen to Brighton and Salem.
THE creek
Czech Pils || 4.7% || Willi Becher || 12° P
Taste: Lemon, Malty Sweetness, Bread
Notes: We used the recipe and process of the Standard and substituted the Czech base malt in the Standard to Sugar Creek Malt from Indiana. As this beer displays, local malt can certainly compete with the classics from Europe.
POLOTMAVÝ
Czech Amber Lager || 4.2% || Czech Mug || 11° P
Taste: Toast, Caramel, bread
Notes: Polotmavy is Czech for “half-dark,” this 11° Plato Czech Amber Lager is brewed with Czech floor malted pils Vienna and Munich malts for notes of toast, caramel and bread. Czech Sladek hops balance out the malt and provide a spicy finish. This beer also undergoes a unique mashing schedule known as an enhanced double decoction for a more complex malt flavor. Open fermented, naturally carbonated, lagered forever
THE RAVEN
Czech Amber Lager || 4.2% || Czech Mug || 11° P
Taste: Toast, Caramel, bread
Notes: This Czech Amber Lager (aka Polotmavy) is brewed with Vienna and Munich malts from Raven Maltings of the Czech Republic. The process and basic recipe is the same as our year round Polotmavy, but with a few differences: the malt has been changed to display the Vienna malt influence from Raven Maltings, and the yeast is a dual strain from Pilsen CZ.
German & AUSTRIAN BIER
HELLES SPEZIAL
Bavarian Export Helles || 5.7% || Willi Becher
Taste: Honey, Grape, Biscuit
Notes: This export strength Bavarian Helles carries a bit more alcohol than the standard Helles, and with it comes more intense aromas of honey, grape and biscuit.
ZWICKEL BIER
Bavarian Pale Lager || 4.5% || Willi Becher
Taste: Zesty, Bready, Floral
Notes: An unfiltered Bavarian pale lager traditionally served with a slight haze direct from the lagering tank. Hopped with Spalt, this beer displays a nice balance of malt sweetness and hop bite. Notes of lemon and citrus, supported by a bready, light body.
LOST IN THE DREAM
Helles Rauchbier || 4.5% || Willi Becher
Taste: Bright, Clean, Subtle Smokiness
Notes: Rauchbier is the same recipe as our Helles Lagerbier but the grain bill includes Bamberg Rauchmalt, barley malt that has been dried with Beechwood smoke.
VIENNA LAGER
Austrian Amber Lager || 4.5% || Willi Becher
Taste: Toast, Caramel, Pepper
Notes: Brewer and Vienna native Anton Dreher has been credited as the founder of the Vienna Lager style. He created what is now known as Vienna malt and used this in the Vienna beer. Austrian’s took this style of beer to Mexico in the late 19th century where it has greatly influenced their beers.
AMERICAN ALES
galaxy DOG & PONY SHOW
New England Pale Ale || 4.5% || Willi Becher
Taste: Passion fruit, Peach, Delicate Citrus
Notes: This is a varation on our original D&P recipe. An American Pale wheat beer brewed with pilsner and american wheat malt, and dry hopped with Galaxy and Citra hops. Straw gold in color, hazy, delicate in malt flavor, with a pungent citrus/ passionfruit aroma.
OTHER STYLES
FRENCH DISKO
French Pils || 4.5% || Willi Becher
Taste: Spicy hop, fruity malt, clean dry finish
Notes: Inspired by French Pils from the Alsace region of France. French pils malt and corn, single decoction, hopped with French Strisselspalt, lagered forever. Fun fact: 60% of beer consumed in France is brewed in Alsace.

BEER TO-GO
AVAILABLE WHENEVER THE TAP ROOM & BIERGARTEN IS OPEN. ORDER AT THE BAR UPON ARRIVAL
Altar - 16oz 4-packs
Dark Altbier || 4.5% || Willi Becher
Taste: Toffee, Roasty, Earthy Bitterness
Notes: Our collaboration brew with Die With Your Boots On this year is a dark altbier. Just like our classic alt, but with a little more roasty and dark color from the addition of extra roasted malts to fit the BWYBO desire.
LOST IN THE DREAM - 16oz 4-packs
Helles Rauchbier || 4.5% || Willi Becher
Taste: Bright, Clean, Subtle Smokiness
Notes: Rauchbier is the same recipe as our Helles Lagerbier but the grain bill includes Bamberg Rauchmalt, barley malt that has been dried with Beechwood smoke.
POLSKI BALTIC PORTER - 16oz 4-packs
Polish Porter || 7.2% || Polish Mug
Taste: Roasted, dates, toffee
Notes: Often called the Polish Brewing Treasure, this style was created in the 19th century as a continental version of the famous British porters. Brewed with Munich, Pilsner and dark roasted specialty malt to create a deep, malty flavor with a noticeable roastiness with flavors of licorice and toffee.
REEL TO REEL - 16oz 4-packs
Cream Ale || 4.2% || Czech Mug
Taste: Sweet Malt, Honey Dew Melon, Pepper
Notes: The style has many interpretations, and few brewers can agree to all the ingredient and process variables. Also, the word "cream" itself is descriptive, and not based on ingredients or process. However, we can all agree it's a mashup of lager and ale, showcasing the best of both worlds
ČERNÉ PIVO - 16oz 4-packs
Czech Black Lager || 4.5% || Czech Mug || 12° P
Taste: Cacao, Toasted Dark Bread, Dry Finish
Notes: Cerne is Czech for “black”. This cold weather cult classic has toasty and slightly roasted malt character. Notes of dark chocolate and coffee make this beer perfect for a chilly evening. Double decocted, open fermented, naturally carbonated, lagered forever.
NON-ALCOHOLIC: NE STYLE IPA - 12oz 6-packs
NE Style IPA || 0.5% || Can, Willi Becher
Taste: Tropical, Juicy, Full-bodied
Notes: Full-flavored, juicy 0.5% ABV session beer








TAP ROOM:
Full pours for on-site consumption (1/4 liter, 1/2 liter and liters) and cans to go. Communal tables, counter and table service, it's a place to socialize with friends or meet new ones.
BIERGARTEN:
Open year-round (snow, sun, whatever), our 2000 sq ft Biergarten has a seating capacity of 200. Heaters in the winter, umbrellas in the summer, as well as additional seating on the harborwalk.
BREWERY:
We hope that our brewery will provide customers a way to see the unique brewing processes and equipment we use - a traditional decoction brew-house, open and closed fermentation, horizontal lagering tanks, German gravity cask dispensing, and a draft system imported from the Czech Republic – tools, process and equipment that will allow a wide variety of session beer (and occasionally non-session beer) to be produced.
