Strength (ABV):

"Benchwarmer" is a very smooth Porter brewed in accordance with the original "high gravity" porters of early London. More than 4% chocolate malt, which is the most similar to the brown malts of the early 1700's, gives "Benchwarmer" its dry coffee-like finish. It is fermented with the Ringwood yeast which is an excellent yeast for the brewing of porters. The widely accepted theory of how porter got its name is that it was a very popular beer among the porters who hauled produce and goods around the marketplace of early industrialized London.

Product - Harpoon Cider
Brewed By:

Self-Defined Style: 
Hard Cider
Strength (ABV): 
4.1% ABV

In 1986 Harpoon co-founders Rich Doyle and Dan Kenary began brewing Harpoon in Boston to share with others the joy of making—and drinking—great beer. In 2000, we added a second brewery in Windsor, Vermont to keep up with the demand. As a regional craft brewer, we gained interest and respect for cider, a drink with strong roots and history in New England. Harpoon’s cider is our contribution to the long heritage of cider made with fresh juice from locally grown apples.

Best With: 
Try this cider as an accompaniment with cheese, pork dishes, or simply enjoy it on its own. Cooking with Cider: enjoy cider-marinated pork, or use cider to steam mussels. Serve Cider: as an apertif, at brunch, and for special occasions. Bring Cider: along for picnics and parties. Mix Cider: with Harpoon beer. Cider and beer have a heritage in New England that dates back to the Pilgrims. The two drinks can be enjoyed together or you can enjoy cider on its own. Here are some of our recommendations. Try mixing Harpoon Cider with the following Harpoon Beers: Harpoon Cider + Harpoon Brown = Copperhead; Harpoon Cider + UFO Hefeweizen = Apfelweizen; Harpoon Cider + UFO Raspberry Hefeweizen = Indian Summer; Harpoon Cider + Harpoon Winter Warmer = Apple Pie!

Harpoon UFO Hefeweizen

Product - Harpoon UFO Hefeweizen
Brewed By: 
Harpoon
Self-Defined Style: 
Hefeweizen
Strength (ABV): 
4.8% ABV

This beer displays a cloudy golden color and a dense, frothy head. The yeast, which has not been filtered out, accounts for the cloudiness of UFO. Wheat malt tends to create a larger head than barley malt, the cereal grain most often used in brewing. The aroma has a faint but clear citrus-like character. This is produced by the special yeast and accounts for the Bavarian tradition of serving hefeweizens with a lemon. The lemon accentuates the yeast's fruity, tart fragrance. UFO has a soft mouth feel and a refreshing, light body.

Best With: 
Spicy foods and seafood.

Raspberry Hefeweizen
Strength (ABV): 
4.8% ABV

UFO Raspberry Hefeweizen is Harpoon's interpretation of the European practice of adding fruit flavors to wheat beers. It is an enjoyable marriage of beer and fruit flavors. After you have poured half the beer into a tall wheat beer glass, swirl the bottle three times to combine the yeast that may have settled to the bottom. Pour the remaining beer into the glass to create a generous, foamy head.

Best With: 
Pork, cheeses, and chocolate cake.

Self-Defined Style: 
Spiced Ale
Strength (ABV): 
5.5% ABV

When you bring a glass of this dark copper ale to your lips to take your first sip you will notice the aroma of cinnamon. There is no aromatic hop added that might overpower the distinct spice scent. The medium body of this beer is formed from caramel and pale malts. These create enough body to support the spices without making the beer excessively rich. Bittering hops are added to counter the sweetness of the malt and spice. The finish of the beer is a blend of cinnamon and nutmeg. The combination of these two spices results in a balanced, pumpkin-pie flavor.

Best With: 
Savory hor d'oerves, duck, apple pie, pumpkin pie.

Hoegaarden White

Product - Hoegaarden
Brewed By: 
Hoegaarden
Self-Defined Style: 
Belgian White Beer
Strength (ABV): 
5.0% ABV

Hoegaarden is the authentic Belgian wheat or white beer. It has a unique and extremely complex brewing process whereby the brand is first top fermented and then is refermented within the bottle - ending up in a unique cloudy-white appearance. The brand's unique appearance is mirrored by its one-of-a-kind taste - sweet and sour beer with a little bitterness, slightly spicy, with a strong touch of coriander and a hint of orange, perfect for warm summer days, instead of other refreshing beverages. Refreshing, a little quirky, and decidedly different - naturally.

Best With: 
This Belgian-style wheat beer works well on its own as an aperitif, but also pairs well with lighter fare such as salads with a citrus dressing. It can work surprisingly well with omelets made with apples and goat cheese. Some people enjoy this beer with a slice of orange as a garnish.

More and more we’re becoming a nation of milquetoasts. And nowhere is that more evident than in our beer—puny liquids without calories, carbs, or cojones.

But it needn’t be that way, my friend! Sure, we don’t want to make a living shoveling coal or washing clothes on a rock. But we can recapture the more robust spirit of a time gone by.

Dundee Porter is a throwback to a different era—when times were tough and so were the people. They drank big beers, slapped each other on the back, and toasted the good life—even though they only saw it from a distance.

Senator Joseph McCarthy. The Hollow Earth Society. Members of the Spanish Inquisition. All convinced they were blessed with the gift of clarity. And proof that clarity might be overrated.

Sometimes, being unclear—and a little flexible—is a good thing. Like when you are looking for the perfect refreshment. Dundee Wheat Beer combines wheat and yeast into a refreshing hefeweizen-style brew. Unfiltered, so it is slightly cloudy and pleasantly unclear.

So the next time you’re convinced you’re right about what you’ve been drinking, give a little “unclarity” a try.

Fire Rock Pale Ale pairs exceptionally well with a broad variety of foods. Its hop character and full body stand up against heartier dishes and barbecue, but it doesn’t overtake lighter fare like chicken or salads.

Best With: 
"Each year for the past six years I have gone to Asia and guest-cheffed at some elite business clubs. I think it would be exciting to take a selection of micro beers and show Asia how well we're doing in the brewing art. A typical beer dinner with an Asian influence might start with Mendocino's Blue Heron Pale Ale, with its light citrus flavors and fruity herb tastes, paired with sautéed prawns with lemon grass, mint and lime. This could be done in a salad over mixed field greens, or on warm stir-fry with mung bean sprouts. And if the gourmet in you is fired, try a simple sweet and sour sauce and spring rolls." - Lisa Hemenway, Hemenway's Restaurant, Sonoma County, California

Gratefully dedicated to the Rogue in each of us. In the early 1990s Dead Guy Ale was created as a private tap sticker to celebrate the Mayan Day of the Dead (November 1st, All Souls Day) for Casa U Betcha in Portland, Oregon. The Dead Guy design proved popular and was incorporated into a bottled product a few years later with Maierbock as the elixir. Strangely, the association with the Grateful Dead is pure coincidence. Dead Guy is a German-style Maibock made with Rogue's proprietary "PacMan" ale yeast.

Double Bock
Strength (ABV): 
9.5% ABV
Color (SRM): 
39º L
Bitterness (IBU): 
25 IBU

INTENSE AND WARMING, A MEAL IN A BOTTLE. Brewed since the 13th Century, these malty lagers are still some of the biggest and most sophisticated beers around. Bock is the German word for "billy goat" and pictures of goats graze the labels on many bocks and double bocks. We shied away from the goats on our label, but we certainly didn’t shy away from the use of malted barley in this beer.

Best With: 
The intense flavors of Double Bock go well with rich meats like duck, quail or pork tenderloin. You can also match the rich sweet flavors with some hearty desserts like cheesecake or crème brulee. But in all honesty, you could just have a pint on its own for dessert and be completely satisfied.

Žatec Bright Lager

Product - Zatec Lager
Brewed By: 
Žatec
Self-Defined Style: 
Bright Lager
Strength (ABV): 
5.0% ABV

Medium-bodied; natural, soft conditioning; hedonistic fresh herbal aroma; a flavor that is the best of fresh-baked bread, fields of grain, and spice, with a solid malt middle. Clean, sparkling, and quintessentially thirst-quenching.

Best With: 
Perfect with traditional Czech dishes like roast pork with dumplings & cabbage or breaded, fried cheese. The crisp effervescence of Žatec makes it a great match with lobster, monkfish or even a strong-flavored oily fish like mackerel; it can also cool the heat of spicy Asian cuisine. Serve in a stemmed Zatec goblet or fluted pils glass at 42-45 deg. F.
