Detonators were frequently used in the building of railroads where explosives were necessary to level the bed for track to be laid. Keeping with tradition that Doppelbock’s names end with -ator, we named this traditional styled Doppelbock the Detonator.

The Northern Brewer and Crystal hops add just the right bitterness for a smooth ride all the way down. Just the way riding the rails should be. 8.7% ABV, 20 IBU and 21 SRM.

“Jubilee” class locomotives were steam engines, used primarily in Great Britain. They were fast, even by modern standards, with maximum speeds over 100 mph. They did not have a lot of pulling capacity, although they were very fast, so the design didn’t get much use in the US. And, let’s not forget that a jubilee is also a celebration. Our Jubilee is a clean, bright, hard seltzer, flavored with any number of interesting fruit, herbal, and floral combinations. Made with all natural and gluten free ingredients*, and with low carbohydrates, it’s a celebration in your glass. At 5.4% ABV, it’s not hauling a heavy load, but it’ll go pretty fast.

According to local legend, there is a ghostly train that you can hear sometimes late at night, running under the full moon on the abandoned rail lines of the north woods. The whistle, when it blows, makes a ghostly sound like “razz wheee”. We’ve created a raspberry wheat ale, light, slightly tart, and sweet, to help put these restless spirits to rest. Or at least give them something to drink when their run is finished. 5.4% ABV, 17 IBU.
The eastern and western lines of Northern Pacific’s transcontinental railroad were joined together near Independence Creek in western Montana in 1883. To commemorate the occasion, the first spike driven at the start of railway construction near Carlton, Minnesota was used to connect the last section of rail. It was named the Golden Spike, and was driven home by NP President Henry Villard, former US President Ulysses S. Grant, and Henry C. Davis, who had driven that first spike. Our Golden Spike, commemorating the completion of construction at Roundhouse Brewery, is a golden colored Imperial IPA, loaded with premium brewers and dark crystal malts, generous doses of Mosaic and Cascade hops for aromas of citrus, spice, and blueberry, and Magnum hops for a clean bittering finish. 8.9% ABV, 87 IBU, 10 SRM.
