Michael Jackson describes “Berlin White Beer” as having an “insistent sparkle, a fragrant fruitiness in the nose, a sharp, dry palate, and a frisson of quenching, sour acidity in the finish.” North Coast Tart Cherry Berliner Weisse is made with the juice of Michigan Montmorency cherries, whose addition softens the lactic finish of the beer and gives it a springtime blush.

North Coast Steller IPA is a very aromatic brew. Generous hops provide intense spice and pine character with subtle notes of grapefruit. The result is a light amber beer, with intense resinous hop flavors. Like muscat, spruce tips, and pennyroyal, North Coast Steller IPA is redolent of resinous terpenes: myrcene, linalool, pinene, and geraniol.

In the spirit of the Mendocino Whale Wars of the late 1960s and early 70s, North Coast Brewing is pledging a portion of the proceeds of every bottle and keg of North Coast Steller IPA to marine mammal research and rescue through the North Coast Brewing Company Marine Mammal Research Fund, a project of The Ocean Foundation.

For the past few years, Barrel-Aged Old Rasputin has been released in such limited quantities that it has been available only at the brewery retail shop in Fort Bragg, California. However, we have received so many requests for this beer that for the 12th anniversary, North Coast Brewing produced enough Old Rasputin XII to put into broader distribution. There’s certainly not a flood of it, but it is available in select areas.
We guarantee that the Barrel-Aged Old Rasputin XII will be worth the search. It is amazing stuff. Aging in oak whiskey barrels adds a level of complexity that amplifies the espresso/chocolate notes in the flavor profile and takes this unique beer to new heights. Read Less

Foggy Day IPA is North Coast Brewing’s interpretation of an increasingly popular sub-style of IPA. These beers are unfiltered and utilize heavy doses of citrus-forward hops. High-protein cereals in the grist such as oats and raw wheat create haziness in the beer and add silky texture to the mouthfeel. To release even more flavor from this hazy IPA, turn the bottle upside-down and gently agitate to put the yeast back into suspension before opening. Read Less

Historical American Lager. Crisp and refreshing, Acme BEER is a no-nonsense brew, made from traditional brewing ingredients:
water, yeast, malt and Noble Tettnanger hops.
Acme Beer is fermented cold with a lager yeast strain that we selected to spotlight the bready, biscuity malt character, without the fruity esters often associated with ale yeast fermentation. Noble Hops add a subtle spicy and floral character to the aroma. A reduced malt bill yields a lighter body, making Acme Beer refreshing and delicious. Read Less

Brewmaster’s Tasting Notes:
This beer pours jet black with a comforting layer of toffee-colored foam. The warm aromatics of the spirit rises from the glass, carrying roasted notes of bourbon, vanilla, and cocoa. The bourbon character from the barrel-aging gives the beer a full-bodied creaminess and a warm, tingling heat. Read Less
