Beer

IBU 35 ABV 5.2%

We brewed this German-style Pilsner from legendary Hallertauer Mittelfrüh hops, combining their prized floral, spicy notes with the rich, grainy character of premium Bavarian malt, creating a very balanced, flavorful-yet-drinkable lager.

I named this for my Dad, Howard.
Howard was a foundry man at Pelton Steel, Milwaukee, then moved to Waupaca Foundry. Like all foundry men he was a loyal, hardworking and dedicated man, always putting in a full day’s work to earn that nice cold pilsner. To honor him and all hardworking people, we offer our Foundry Water.

IBU 20 ABV 6.1%

A deeply red Czech-style amber lager (polotmavé pivo) brewed with rye and barley malts, with European noble hops complementing rich spicy character. Bold but smooth; complex but drinkable. Na zdraví!

I named this one for my father-in-law, Harold. Harold was a roofer by trade first at Langer Roofing in Milwaukee until he started his own roofing company, Krebs Roofing Inc. He has always been on top of things and a dedicated, hardworking man who enjoys ending many a long day with a cold red lager. His daughters recall him reciting his roofer’s creed, “Red sky in the morning - roofer’s warning, red sky at night - Roofer’s Delight!” Little did we know that works for sailors too! This HINDER has aromas of caramelized malt and roasted grain with a smooth medium to light body and a slightly hoppy finish.

IBU 10 ABV 4.8%
Very pale, very drinkable craft take on American light lager features subtle malt flavor, a hint of fruit, and a crisp, refreshing finish.

IBU 33 ABV 7.3%
A special new yeast strain unlocks all the potential flavor of a BUTT-load of American hops, creating massive aromas of pine, tropical fruit, and citrus peel which are complemented by toasted wheat and oats, with hop bitterness reduced through “hop bursting” for a very mild, lightly sweet finish.

IBU 14 ABV 5.0%
This vibrant sour blonde ale derives its rosy hue from a generous infusion of cranberries, while dried orange peel adds depth to their fruity character. With an inviting nose of fruit, acid, and wheat, it balances grainy malt complexity with a pleasantly tart finish.

IBU 48 ABV 76.5%

This is our “crack” at brewing Cold IPA, a beer style combining high-gravity adjunct lager with West-coast IPA. Light, crisp malt character takes a “back seat” to the various fruity and funky flavors of a blend of hops from around the world. Its long-but-clean finish combines snappy hop bitterness with a touch of sweetness, courtesy of its 6.5% ABV.

El Extremo Mexican Lager

IBU 17 ABV 5.1 %

A malty, golden, Mexican-style lager brewed with Agave nectar and dry-hopped with lime-like "Wakatu" hops from New Zealand; perfect for summer quaffing.

ABV 5.9 • IBU 41

Haulin’ Oats pours a radiant deep golden-amber with creamy white head. Its aroma bursts with the vibrant character of Idaho 7 hops—zesty tangerine, resinous pine, and a touch of herbal tea—inviting you into a layered drinking experience. On the palate, these bold hop flavors intertwine seamlessly with lightly toasted malt and the silky-smooth texture of flaked oats. A hint of berry-like sweetness from caramelized oat malt rounds out the flavor profile before finishing with a crisp, earthy snap of refreshing hop bitterness.

ABV 7.5% • IBU 38
The scaled-up version of the 2024 Hinder Head-Butt competition-winning beer, this New England IPA pours a hazy golden-orange and releases inviting aromas of tropical fruit—orange, pineapple, and subtle coconut—accented by a bright citrus peel. Smooth oats and wheat create a creamy canvas for an expressive hop profile featuring notes of pine and resin. A harmonious finish with a hint of crisp bitterness serves as a reminder of its true IPA character.

IBU 21 ABV 4.7%
This smooth, slightly sweet amber ale balances malty flavors of caramel and baking bread with crisp Wisconsin-grown hops. Raise a pint to the heroic Tuskegee airmen who fought for the freedom to grab our HINDERS!

IBU 39 ABV 9.1%
