Star Route The Core 8 Brews
Offerle Hefe
This Bavarian Hefeweizen is brewed with very low hops allowing the clove and banana flavors from the yeast to be detected. You will also note the hazy appearance of the beer while tasting the slight bready flavor of the wheat. With Gretchen's German heritage a Hefe was the perfect beer to be named after the town in Kansas where Gretchen's family settled in the 1800's and have been growing wheat every since. Maybe some of their wheat is in your beer.

IBU: 11
Perigee Session IPA
As the name implies it is the complete opposite of the Apogee. It still has that hoppy burst in an IPA with notes of Citrus and Grapefruit but this beer allows you to have a few then still have your wits about you. Light on the grain and heavy on the hops a low ABV and a high IBU is perfect for any occasion. Take one hiking as your summit beer, crack few on the golf course, or just drink like I do...at the brewery on the patio...all day and all summer!

ABV: 4.4
IBU: 57
Knotty Amber
Star Routes Knotty Amber is less bitter with a lower IBU than other Amber Ales you may have tried. It's dark red color and spicy/fruity aroma highlight the hops, while the blend of Munich, caramel and standard malts create a sweet, toasty, bready characteristics that give the Knotty Amber it's smooth finish.

Texas Pecan Coffee Amber
What's in a name? Well, in this case...the beer description! Similar to the Knotty Amber the smooth finish is accomplished with a pleasant and comforting pecan nut coffee flavor. Two "cold-brews" in one!

RaspWheat'n
A beer beer first with a secondary hint of fruit, my raspberry wheat ale is not your typical fruit beer. This unfiltered ale is the perfect balance of hops and real raspberries leaving a refreshing, simple afterthought of berry sweetness. It's a drink anywhere anytime kind of beer!

Backstrap Black IPA
This is no ordinary IPA. Dark malts combined with a whole lotta hops. Four kinds, to be exact: Cascade, Centennial, Chinook, and Summit create this beer, also known as a Cascadian Dark Ale for it's origination in the Cascadian mountains. Though it may surprise you no coffee nor chocolate here! Just malty, caramel, toast, with intense hoppy pine, citrus and fruit notes that stand up to the toughest palette. Dark and hoppy the best of both worlds.

IBU: 71
Grand Apogee DIPA
There can be no Specialty List without a crazy hopped, high octane beer. An Apogee is the furthest point from the center of an orbit. That's why this is my Apogee, lots of Mosaic and Chinook hops combined with a full grain bill equal this DIPA. If you like them flavorful look no further.

ABV: 9.1
IBU: 67
Star Route Specialty Brews
DaLishes Coffee Stout
This malt-rich, smoky, sweet stout has hints of berry and cocoa. It is an ode to one of my good friends because, well, this beer is just DeLishes! Try it on our nitro tap to bolster the smoothness and creaminess of this almost-too-easy-to-drink dark beer.
Details
ABV: 5.2
IBU: 23
The Reaper DIPA
My most intense Specialty Brew on the Route. What do you get when you combine Carolina Reapers with a DIPA? You end up with The Reaper. A strong beer with a spicy kick that comes from deep in the back of your throat and builds as you continue to drink. The Reaper only comes around twice a year so get yours while it's on tap.

ABV: 9.4
IBU: 64

Star Route Seltzers
Margarita Seltzer
Being from the south I love Margaritas, so why not make a Margarita Seltzer. Lemon, Lime, Orange Juice and alcohol. Paired with some Tacos while sitting out on the patio on a warm summer day nothing better.
Details
ABV: 5.0
Blackberry Lime Seltzer
While in New Mexico I ran across a Blackberry Lime Habanero Margarita. I have taken that as an inspiration for this drink. Tart, sour and refreshing. And just to kick it up a notch I also made a spicy version that I've added Habanero to the recipe.
