LEFT HAND FLAMINGO DREAMS NITRO BERRY BLONDE ALE
New signature nitro offering (2021) retains easygoing lambic-like berry tartness too flat and faded for its brittle dextral carafoam malting.

Savory maple-syruped chocolate mousse creaminess gains immediate cardamom-spiced orange peel sweetness, ginger-leafed cinnamon minting and coniferous pine nut minerality for chai tea-inspired nitro stout. Tertiary sarsaparilla, cola nut and walnut illusions casually integrate with wintry sandalwood, sage and fern snips as well as delicate rice pudding, cherry coughdrop and gingerbread dalliances to further enrich rangy milk stout template.
LEFT HAND WAKE UP DEAD NITRO RUSSIAN IMPERIAL STOUT

LEFT HAND TRAVELIN’ LIGHT KOLSCH
Dry light-bodied kolsch brings corn-husked maize astringency, hay-like straw acridity and soda cracker neutrality to yellow-fruited whir. Wispy herbal lemongrass snip and apple skin tannins fade fast.
