House Draught
Soul Horkey Ale , the flagship of our house brewed beers. Soul is a special recipe that combines ancient English tradition with new Belgian ideas. As a session ale built for true malt heads, this ale demonstrates the true depth and diversity of malt by blending 9 highest quality malts in a dry balance with Chinook and Kent Golding hops. 5.5 % ABV, available on draught year round by request; $124.95 ½ bbl. Sunna Wit Bier, Distinct and delicate flaked wheat and oat beer. A noticeable citrus exists resulting from the addition of tangerine, lemon, lime zests, and corriander during the boil. Aging this beer on rose petals and fermenting it with 50% Saison yeast, we create signature earthy and spicy notes. 4.8% ABV, available on draught year round by request only; $124.95 ½ bbl.
 
Flo India Pale Ale, a staff and regulars favorite of our public house. Brewed with a blend of seven hop varieties and seven world class malts this aromatically dry hopped ale combines both English and American brewing traditions. The result is a fruit driven by dry palate, a true treat for the bold fans of the hoppier side of beers. 6.3% ABV; available year round on draught by request only; $129.95 ½ bbl. Farmhouse Saison, a seasonally changing beer dictated by freshly available herbs, spices, fruits, grains, seeds, and or vegetables. Adhering to the style’s age old custom we completely change the recipe of this beer each time we brew it, in an effort to push our talented Brewer’s creativity to the limit! Depending on the time of the year we brew this beer from straw color to jet black. Each of our 12+ rotating annual batches are available only once, catch the ghost while you can! 3.5%-12.5% ABV, extremely rare draught availability by batch; Market Price ½ bbl.
 
Awaken Coffee Stout. A dark, creamy, and surprisingly drinkable Dry Stout. As you would expect from the brewers at Trinity, this Stout is anything but mainstream. Starting the base recipe with ten malts and three hop varieties, we age the resulting ale on award winning Amante Espresso and Chickory to create balanced and pleasing bitter notes. 6.0% ABV ; available year round on draught by request only; $129.95 ½ bbl.

Farmhouse Nocturnum, is a member of the new family of strong Belgian ales know as “Super Saisons.” The name Nocturnum is inspired by the intimidating jet black color of the beer. Spiced with a blend of sarsaparilla, sassafras, rosemary, coriander, and cumin for a perfect level of spiciness balanced with sweet fruity esters is created. At 12.5% ABV, this Saison is not only the strongest beer we currently brew annually but also the strongest spiced beer ever brewed in Colorado Springs. 12.5% ABV; extremely rare; limit #1 keg; available Late Dec/Jan $189.oo ½ bbl. Pappy Legba. Brewed with just a touch of flaked maize for a seductive and creamy texture, this crimson Saison is undeniably focused on fruit. Post fermentation this special Belgian is aged on a grip of pie cherries, lending it more of a Kriek profile rather than Saison. 13% ABV; extremely rare; limit #1 keg; available January. $289.00 ½ bbl.
 
Passed Stout. Just in time to keep you warm during the colder months of winter! It’s body is huge, it’s dark malt character is huge, it’s hop profile is gigantic, and it’s ABV is enormous. It’s basically everything that you would expect from a noteworthy Imperial Stout, and more! We age this beer on fresh Madagascar Vanilla Beans, Dagoba Cacao Nibbs, and French Oak. 11.0% ABV; extremely rare, limit #1 keg; available February; $189.00 ½ bbl. Wee Banshee Irish Heather Ale. Our release date for this ale is of course St. Patricks Day. Using ingredients directly from the isle we brewed up a historically authentic ancient beer. It’s toasty from the addition of both Victory and Vienna malts, with a lightly sweet caramel note. European noble hops add a dryness and drinkability to the ale while balancing and supporting the complex malt undertones. Separating this ale from all Irish reds, Heather Tips bring us back to ancient and medieval brewing times, adding a very pleasant and soft floral echo. Bringing a little bit more of the isle to this ale we add a very small amount of sea salt t0 the boil. 7.0% ABV, extremely rare; limit #1 keg; Available March, 17th; $129.00 ½ bbl.
 
Farmhouse, Three flower Saison. Again going back to the earth with this version of our seasonal Belgian, we age this orange hued ale on the tops of three varieties of flowers. We promised not to give up our secret on this beer, because it’s just too good of a secret! Authentically Belgian and only available as the weather warms and flowers begin to appear. 7.0% ABV, extremely rare; limit #1 keg; Available late March/Early April; $129.00 ½ bbl.

Southern Hospitality, Pecan Pie Beer. Although we live in Colorado everyone still appreciates a little bit southern hospitality, and we are here to deliver. Brewed with all the ingredients from a pecan pie including: Fresh roasted pecans, brown sugar, whole cinnamon sticks, and fresh Madagascar Vanilla beans.

Served with or without ice cream! 5.5% ABV, extremely rare; limit #1 keg; Available Mid-May; $149.00 ½ bbl.
 
Farmhouse, Saison Du Baze. Brewed annually as a light and refreshing spring time Belgian. Straw in color and dry, this ale is flavored with the addition of fresh Colorado grown Palisade apples. The pleasant apple flavor is soft and reminiscent of traditional Saison yeast esters. The use of chicory in this recipe creates an essence of coffee and dryness that is again reinforced by the addition of grains of paradise. We recommend enjoying this beer while enjoying the view of Pikes Peak from our patio. 5.5% ABV, extremely rare; limit #1 keg; Available June; $129.00 ½ bbl. Slap Your Mammy is a shocking Double IPA!

A truly shocking Double IPA for all you Hopophiles. 10.5% ABV, extremely rare; limit #1 keg; Available June and Oct (maybe more); $239.00 ½ bbl.
 
Farmhouse, “SS” Saison. Our brewer has been in loose contact with Dany Prignon of the world famous Saison Fantôme. Through this contact we’ve learned a few secrets about how Fantôme is brewed. Maybe we used some in this recipe of Farmhouse, or maybe we did . Ok we DID ! We aren’t going to say what those secrets are but we will say this Farmhouse was brewed with both strawberries and sweet potatoes! 6.5% ABV, extremely rare; limit #1 keg; Available July; $129.00 ½ bbl. Kiwibunga!, Brettanomyces Kiwi Wit. Loving Wit Biers so much, we decided to make our third interpretation of a hybrid of the style. Brewed with the base malt structure of a Belgian Wit, this beer quickly gets funky. We ferment this treat with a special and rare strain of the wild yeast Brettanomyces. This special yeast creates notes of barnyard, wet wool, and even sweaty goat! After fermentation the batch is aged on a grip of fresh kiwi fruit, again imparting an even higher level of tartness than expected. 4.8% ABV, available on draught late July; $189.95 ½ bbl.
 
Kinky Reggae, Jamaican Jerk Beer. Jamaican "jerk" blends well the cultural origins and traditional cooking methods of many indigenous peoples native to the Caribbean. A Spice blend most famous for the heat it brings from scotch bonnet peppers also the ever famous all-spice. This ale turned out spicy hot but also reminiscent of a winter/Christmas beer. We know you will like it. 6.0% ABV, extremely rare; limit #1 keg; Available August; $129.00 ½ bbl. Libidinous, San Hop Steam Lager. The first in our rotating release of specialty single batch beers! It’s possible that this steam beer is the very first un- hopped lager in recent history. Brewed san hops, we flavored this specialty with heather tips, juniper berries, chai, and saffron. More of an ancient Gruit than anything, we know you will enjoy this unusual treat. 8% ABV; extremely rare; limit #1 keg; Available August; $149.00 ½ bbl.
 
Farmhouse ‘Peche Noir’ Saison . We’ve all had a beer made with peach or apricot before, but this is not your froo froo try to be a soda beer! This week’s Saison is brewed with dark malts, brown sugar, grains of paradise, and aged on fresh peaches. We know you will enjoy this harvest treat! 7.0% ABV, extremely rare; limit #1 keg; Available September; $129.00 ½ bbl. Farmhouse Café Blanc . Our friends at Colorado Coffee merchant were a huge help on this beer. We’ve been wanting to do a Saison with ‘white coffee’ for quite some time, we just couldn’t source the very lightly roasted bean. Harry of CCM roasted a special batch of white coffee just for this brew! Why white coffee you ask? The answer will be obvious when you taste the beer. The unique nutty and earthy flavors pair perfectly with what’s expected in a Saison. To round off the beer we aged this batch on fresh vanilla beans too! 7.0% ABV, extremely rare; limit #1 keg; Available September; $129.00 ½ bbl.
 
Cherry Awaken Stout. Everyone knows our Awaken Stout and how deliciously the coffee and chicory flavors we add mix with the profile of a good stout. For our second year in a row we will be tapping 2 kegs of Awaken Stout aged on Cherries on Chirstmas Eve. We age our stout on over 1 lb of Montmorency Pie Cherries per pint for the very special occasion. These 2 kegs of chocolate cherry nitrogenated heaven are the only kegs of Cherry Awaken we will tap this year. 6.0% ABV ; available on site by the glass only December 24. Chilly Water Baltic Porter. Not a common style of beer by any means, in fact this style of Porter is a Bottom fermented lager rather than an ale. Traditional brewed in Northern Europe, this lager had to be strong to keep all the hearty northern souls warm. Again keep in mind this beer is brewed by Trinity and any beer we do seems to have an added twist. The twist in this seasonal is a choice to age the beer on some rare Mexican wood known as Cauchalalate. This wood imparts a certain dryness accompanied by chocolate and coffee flavors. We think it’s the perfect match for the style, and we know you will agree! 8.5% ABV; extremely rare; limit 1 keg; available December; $149.00 ½ bbl.
 
Farmhouse Noel Brewed with brown sugar, garam masala, pumpkin, white sage, coriander, and grains of paradise. This version of our seasonally rotating Saison tastes like liquid Thanks Giving ….

Stop Making Sense, Eis Bock. In old German tradition, this style of Lager was developed by accident when aging a batch of Doppel Bock in barrels and in caves. The temperature of the caves dropped low enough to partially freeze some of the water contained in the beer, hence giving birth to a new style of beer. Eis bocks are the strongest German beer brewed today, thanks to the freezing of the beer. This process of freezing the beer also concentrates malts and hops, making those flavors even more intense! 11% ABV; extremely rare, limit #2 cases; available late January. $135.00 case. Old Growth, Flemmish Inspired Wild Brown. Aging this beer on oak for any where between 6-18 months on wild bacterial/yeast spiked oaken barrels creates a heavily malic and tart brown ale. Inspired by the original Flemmish beers of ancient Belgium this extremely rare bottle has notes of green apple, lemon bar, kiwi, leather, and wet wool. 5.8% ABV; extremely rare; limit 2 cases, Available February and September; $185.00 case.
 
Farmhouse Provisional, ancient wild Saison. If you ever wanted to time and space travel to rural southern Belgium during the 1800’s, this is the beer to do it with. The malt bill consists of a combination of barley, oats, wheat, rye and spelt. For the fermentation we use a blend of Saison yeast with wild Brettanomyces, then we spice this beer with lavender and age it on French oak. 6.5% ABV; extremely rare; limit #2 cases; available late Febuary. $135.00 case. TPS Report, Experimental Flanders Sour. If you love the funky side of Belgium then you will love our TPS Report.

Fermented 100% with a very rare variety of the wild yeast, Brettanomyces, this beer is the funky funky farmhouse, wet wool, and heavy leather that we’ve all grown to love.
