Beer 1

ULLR Oatmeal Stout

6.6% Alc.Vol

An Oatmeal Stout with a tiny twist. This medium-bodied beer is slightly hoppier than normal, which brightens the chocolate and coffee-like malt flavors making it very smooth and drinkable.

How to Enjoy
This beer is good all year long but is especially nice in the cooler months. Pairs well with rich meals like roasted meats and veggies, burgers, BBQ, sharp cheeses and even cheesecake.

BEER 2

ULLR Rye Pale Ale

7.5% Alc.Vol

A not-so-pale Pale Ale that strikes a true balance between hops and malts. Rye Malt adds a sweet spice that softens an assertive hoppy flavor.

How to Enjoy
The Rye Pale Ale is very close to an IPA, but the hop bitterness not as aggressive as most IPA’s. It pairs well with many foods. It is especially tasty with spicy dishes and helps bring out sweet elements of savory foods.

Beer #3

ULLR California Common

5.5% Alc.Vol

Hybrid beer style using a unique lager yeast that ferments at ale-like temps. Northern Brewer hops add a minty buzz and fruity aroma that balance  subtle caramel malt flavor

How to Enjoy
Hard to go wrong with this beer. This is the anytime, anywhere, anyone beer. It just plays nice all around. If you don’t know what kind of mood you’re in, this is the mood you’re in.
