Pepper’s Jalapeńo IPA
Ranked among our most favorite beers off the tap, the full aroma of fresh-cut jalapeńo peppers assails the heedless drinker – yet hidden below this blazing bouquet is only a mild heat, lingering past the earthy notes of lemongrass and straw. Named after Pepper, the much beloved Border-Collie from whom we take our name, this mind-bending brew is worth giving a chance – it just may become your favorite too!
Red’s Rye IPA
Named after the legendary Border bartender of yore, this complex brew holds the crown as having the most complex flavor profile among our many IPAs. A deep amber color and rocking an off-white cap, this rollercoaster starts with its medium malty robustness, washing away into the fruity spice of the Rye, and finishing with a pungent dose of zesty hop-bitters.
New England IPA
Claiming the title as our most-revised recipe, we constantly strive to improve upon this hazy, refreshing all-season IPA. Bearing the juicy aromas of grapefruit and pineapple, coupled with bright citrus notes, this IPA practically flies off the shelves, so get it while you can!
DANK Wheat IPA
Another notch in our imperial-strength belt, this high-octane wheat ale drinks like a fortified New England IPA, melding the flavors of sweet pear with the tangy bitterness of grapefruit and lemon above a daunting, yet hidden, ABV. Slight notes of coriander, bread and banana tie together the full body that completes this pleasant IPA.
Blood Orange DANK
Take our Double DANK IPA, then add a bucket-load of fresh blood oranges – what do you get? The Blood Orange DANK, of course! Taking the balanced bite of our double IPA and adding a seriously citrus-sweet finish, this all-season favorite never lasts long enough.
Double DANK IPA
Our apex IPA, this west coast double has been brewed at imperial strength to provide the malty backbone necessary to balance its hefty hop-load, and the bitter punch that delivers. Dry-hopped with pounds of Citra and Cascade hops, this fragrant brew is suspiciously smooth despite its daunting ABV. It’s delicious, it’s deep, it’s DANK.
Border IPA
A true all-American IPA, this thirst-quenching summer ale is fashioned without any of the contrivances or untoward fragrances of today’s IPA market. Instead we aimed for a traditional taste: bitter, and then more bitter! Pairs great with our in-house barbecue or any afternoon sweltering under the hot sun.
Border SMASH! Series
No beer better showcases the brewer’s art than the humble SMASH; proving that from even the simplest ingredients can a sumptuous drink be crafted. The term SMASH is itself an acronym meaning “single malt and single hop” and these beers are brewed to the letter! The mash consists of hearty American Two-Row Barley and nothing but, while exhibiting the full aroma and flavor of a single hop of choice.
Border Imperial Pale
Bigger and bolder than our benchmark Pale, this Imperial variant has all the same characteristics – amped up to eleven! Notes of warming alcohol and hoppy spice linger past the full malty body, concluding with a dash of fragrant citrus; this delicately balanced ale fairs best in the cool nights of the early Spring & Fall.
Border Pale
The sister brew to our Amber Ale, this deep-golden Pale begins with a hint of sweetness that transitions subtly into a smooth, hoppy finish. Topped with a thick finger of creamy foam, this palate-pleasing brew drinks dangerously easily.
