Today weâre releasing our second batch of Colonel Toby, our collaboration with The Kernel Brewery in London, England. We call Colonel Toby âa hoppy little farmhouse aleâ, becauseâŠwellâŠitâs really just that. We love making beers that are either dry and tart, or dry and bitter, and Colonel Toby definitely falls into the latter category.
Colonel Toby Batch 2 was brewed on October 16th and 17th with well water, Crisp Maris Otter, rolled oats, Cascade hops, and fermented in stainless steel with our mixed culture of brewers yeast and native yeast and bacteria. Prior to packaging on November 20th and 21st, it was dry hopped with Citra and Centennial. Colonel Toby is 3.0% alcohol by volume, 54 IBU, 4.4 pH, and has a finishing gravity of 1.001 (0.25 Plato).
Dynamo starts strong and finishes crisp and smooth. The balanced flavors, aromas, and even the coppery-red tones of this beer go great with everything.
Built in 1871, the current La Dolce Vita restaurant in Lemont was once home to The Charles Fruhauf Store. Charles Fruhauf, a German-born immigrant, built his storefront out of Lemont limestone (Athens Marble) and his general store was a Lemont staple throughout the late 1800âs. We brewed this Oktoberfest as homage to him and the beautiful building that still stands to this day. Clean, malty, and just dry enough, this MĂ€rzen-style lager is to be consumed in your finest lederhosen or dirndl while eating giant pretzels in an endless beer garden.

When you brew as much as we do, sometimes we get tired of telling the yeast what to do. For Apex Predator Farmhouse Ale, we pitch the yeast cold, turn off the temperature control, and let the yeast do it's thing. To our delight, it spat out the sweet scent of juicy fruit wafting from a frothy, white mane. Brewed only with grain and sugar unencumbered by the heat of the kiln, we create a hazy, golden body. Apex Predator gets its teeth from a generous Crystal dry-hopping that completes the dry finish with a fruity bite. Pounce on the opportunity to let it part your lips and you may find yourself at the top of the food chain.
