Come on meow, we know you're looking for some shenanigans that are cheeky and fun. Well, look no further! Our latest and greatest sour is perfectly balanced by peach, mango and raspberry that wonderfully blend together to create snozzberries that taste like snozzberries! We even canned this bad boy so make sure you don't get caught by Thorny and Farva for littering annnnnd....
Single Malt And Single Hop (SMASH) IPA. In an intergalactic battle for hop supremacy, there can only be one champion: Mosaic. Mashing some of our favorite video games and hops together, Super Smash Mos gives off flavors of papaya, lemongrass, guava, and tropical dankness.
SUPER version of our fan-favorite Sucker for Succulents, this DIPA is loaded with Mosaic Cryo, Columbus, and Simcoe hops. Gives off juicy aromas of mango, pine, dank, and playful floral notes. SUPER fresh, SUPER good!

Featured Draft Beers

Han-cho solo

Porter (6.0%) Side Gate has gone to the Dark Side! Han-cho Solo Porter smuggles in aromas of dried figs, brown sugar, rugged good looks, and just a touch of moral ambiguity. Brewed with toasted Ancho chiles, Han-cho’s flavor takes your taste buds on a roasty trip around the galaxy in under 12 parsecs, leaving behind a mild spice that will make you say “These ARE the chiles I’ve been looking for.”

Billabong Rip

IPA (7.2%) We love our dank IPA’s at Side Gate and this Southern Hemisphere banger won’t be pulling any punches. Resiny Australian Enigma and Vic Secret hops are complimented by a blast of diesel from New Zealand Nelson. One sip will transport you to the Aussie outback, kicking back by the billabong in the warm winter sun. Toke another hit of that sticky icky… I mean, dank IPA… and pretty soon you’ll have ripped through the whole thing. Cheers Mate!

Gem Burst

Hazy IPA (6.5%) This bright hazy is shinning with character. Idaho Gem, Bru-1 and Citra have metaphorized into a lustrous concoction absolutely bursting out of the glass! Equal parts tropical, citrus, dank and piney this 1000 carat hazy will leave you sparkling from ear to ear.
