Haybag American Hefeweizen
OG: 1045 ABV: 5.5% IBU: 25
Citrusy and dry, this wheat beer uses 40% malted white wheat from Washington to give a mouthful of cereal flavor, all while being incredibly drinkable and thirst-quenching. Cascade and Willamette hops provide grassy citrus flavors and aromas. The special yeast strain stays in suspension for that signature cloudiness.

Algonquin “Gonk” Amber
OG: 1054 ABV: 5.8% IBU: 30
This amber ale is modeled after the Alt (old) beers of northern Germany. Simultaneously rich and crisp, this beer exhibits strong caramel malt flavors without being sweet or cloying. This delicate balance is achieved though the careful use of Sterling and Willamette hops for an earthy, herbal character. We use the Hefeweizen yeast for this beer, but ferment it cold to enhance the lager-like character. The Algonquin mine was one of the first major silver lodes in the area, and later produced manganese to support both world war efforts.
Montana 1 IPA
ABV: 6.6% IBU: 66
Where we live, it's easy to be late to the party...just like our latest release set to come out in 4-packs! We created this brew with an approchable ABV and flavor profile for the style using Amarillo, Mosaic & Chinook hops to give it a juicy, citrusy, tropical blast. Montana 1 is named for scenic Highway 1 which connects Philipsburg to the world. Take a winding journey through juicy hops and remember: getting there is half the fun!
Tramway Rye PA
OG: 1062 ABV: 6.4% IBU: 75
Tramway is our take on a Northwest India Pale Ale: bold, hoppy, and strong. We give the traditional recipe a tweak, though, and use malted Rye from Oregon to impart a subtle, complex spiciness that interacts well with the blend of Cascade, Centennial, and Chinook hops we use for flavoring and aroma. The citrus blast you receive when you dip your sniffer into the glass comes from dry-hopping the serving tank with whole-leaf Chinook hops. The original Tramway was constructed in 1889 (one year after the completion of the Sayrs building that now houses the brewery) to haul ore from Granite to the Bi-Metallic Mill. It was 9750 feet long, the largest in the country at that time.
