| Seasonal Beers |
The Royal Oak Brewery produces a range of Seasonal Beers throughout each year. A new Seasonal brew comes on tap every month or two. These specialty beers give our brewers, Tim Selewski and Nate Rykse, the opportunity to stretch out and dabble in various classic beer styles. Some of our Seasonal Beers are annual brews made through the years while others are new products. Be sure to ask your server or bartender about the availability of our Seasonal Beer during your next visit. Below is a list of our Seasonal Beers. Annual Seasonals are noted in their descriptions.
Suicide BlondeDon't let this blonde fool you - there might just be a bit of the devil inside! Its soft golden hue is complimented by a deep head of foam. Its sweet malt flavor is firmly supported by the spicy character from the yeast. A tribute to the Strong Golden Ales of Belgium, our Blonde is one of a kind. Spicy and sweetish with hints of cloves and almonds and a low bitterness. It's what you need!
Summer Wit - AVAILABLE NOWNothing says summer like the Belgian Witbier style, and our offering is no exception. Pilsner and Wheat malts are combined with a generous portion of raw (unmalted) wheat to create a soft malt character. Hop additions are kept to a minimum to make way for a unique set of flavors imparted to the beer through generous doses of fresh ground coriander and dried Spanish orange peel. Crisp and refreshing, this beer is served unfiltered in the classic style.
OktoberfestOne of the world's greatest and most famous styles of beer is certainly Oktoberfest, a German lager brewed for consumption during Bavaria's annual festival which shares its name. Our Oktoberfest is certainly one of our most popular specialties. A rich, clean flavor profile is at the heart of this beer. It is amber in color with a thick, long lasting head of foam. The finest German vienna, munich and pilsner malts to create a complex but unmistakably smooth malt character. Noble hops impart a firm bitterness, but this one is certainly malt dominated. Don't miss this beer - it shows up once each year in the first half of October and never lasts more than two weeks. Prost!
Krueger AltThe German Altbier style is treasured amongst brewers around the world, and we love turning out our take on it now and again. Our Alt is copper in color with a rounded maltiness that reflects the large amounts of Pilsner and Munich malts used in our recipe. Subtle sweetness comes from a small dose of German Caramel malt. Noble hops add a firm bitterness that balances the malt. Its rich, complex flavor is a nod to the "Sticke" or "Secret" Alts of Dusseldorf's brewpubs which are specialties made to salute their loyal regulars. It's Beer Uber Alles!
Snowdrift Winter AleEach year in January we release our Winter Ale to help beat back the chill. Brewed loosely in the style of an English Old Ale, this amber beer has a rich sweetness up front which gives way to the distinctive flavor of the finest East Kent Goldings hops in the finish. This beer is the perfect accompaniment to a plate of rich food on a cold winter day. It's enough to cure the deepest post-holiday blues. McCallum's Irish StoutBrewed annually to celebrate St. Patrick's Day, this beer is produced in the style of a classic Irish Dry Stout. Robust yet quaffable, this beer has a jet-black appearance and a pronounced roastiness. Bitterness is medium and comes more from dark malts than from hops. Stoke City Brown AleA rich, smooth brew made from five malts and two hop varieties in the style of a Northern English Brown Ale. Chestnut brown in color, this beer has notes of chocolate and caramel. Brewed to honor the people of Stoke-on-Trent in northwestern England. 90 Shilling Scotch Ale"The 90 Shilling", as it is known, is one of our most popular seasonals and has come to be associated closely with the winter Holiday season. This festive beer is rich, malty and sweet with a dark copper color. Hop bitterness and flavor are low in keeping with Scottish brewing tradition.
EuphoriAle BarleywineOne Sunday morning each year, we gather at the Royal Oak Brewery to celebrate the Barleywine style as we produce our famous EuphoriAle. English pale malt and a single hop variety are combined to produce a rich, distinctive brew. EuphoriAle turns up on our rotating Seasonal taps from time to time. Maybe next visit you'll get lucky...
