New Specialty Sips

  • Aloha Ice: Passion fruit, orange and guava (POG) come together to deliver a sweet, citrusy flavor. Refreshingly cool, it’s tropical vibes in a cup. 5% ABV. Brewed in Minneapolis, Minn., by Freehouse Brewery.
  • Backyard Bloody Mary: A seltzer-based bloody mary drink. Elegantly garnished with a zesty lemon wedge and an olive. 5% ABV. Brewed in Minneapolis, Minn., by Freehouse Brewery.
  • Cherry Apple Pie Cider: Bold cherry with notes of apple pie spice, creating a balance between sweet and tart flavors. It's like a bite of fresh pie in every sip. 6% ABV. Made in Duluth, Minn., by Wild State Cider.
  • Prickly Pear Sour: Exploding with the tangy-sweet punch of prickly pear, this bold brew is packed with vibrant fruit flavor. Bright and eye-catching, it delivers a flavor reminiscent of your favorite hard candy. 4.4% ABV. Brewed in Minneapolis, Minn., by Freehouse Brewery.
