Bryant Bridge Gateway Golden Ale
low hop bitterness, light, clean, easy drinking - 4.5% This straw-colored golden beer is light on the tongue, with low hop levels and notes of peach and citrus on the nose and in the flavor.We recommend this brew to anyone looking for a refreshing thirst quencher. Durham's Bryant Bridge crosses Rte. 147, shining brightly at night with its blue LED lights. It is the gateway to the Bull City and this is our gateway to drinking craft beer. Golden Pickle
coriander and cucumber, refreshing, slightly tart - 4.5% Here’s our Golden Ale blended with pickle juice, a la “dirty martini,” from our signature pickles. It really is delicious.That is, if you like pickles, of course. Sour Cherry Ale • not available in flights
flavored beer • tart, fruity, strong cherry aroma - 4.5% Our sour cherry flavor perfectly pairs up with our light, clean Bryant Bridge Gateway Golden Ale, turning it into a pucker-your-cheeks sour cherry delight. RDM Dortmunder (Blonde Lager) 10oz. $4.50 • 16oz. $6.50
light • slightly sweet, crisp and clean 5.0% Our Dortmunder lager is light in color, and balances delicate malt with light hop bitterness. Minerality in the beer makes this a crisp and refreshing brew. In the late 1950s, Reverend Douglas Moore, along with other religious and community leaders, pioneered sit-ins throughout North Carolina to protest discrimination at lunch counters that served only whites. Clay Street Pale Ale
hoppy • peach and apricot, subtle bitterness, soft mouthfeel 5.0% We crafted this unique pale ale using a blend of new world techniques and old world ingredients. The overall bitterness is low, in line with a British-style Pale Ale. British hops, Golding and Fuggles, known for their earthy spice, were added later in the brewing process to display fruity notes of peach and apricot. The result is understated, straightforward and supremely drinkable. Hot Pepper Pale Ale
flavored beer • orange zest, spicy pepper, floral hops 5.0% This is our Parrish Street Pale Ale blended with a house-made hot pepper extract. Lightly spicy, with a nicely balanced malt backbone and floral hops to finish. Watch out, this one will sneak up on you! |
Catsburg Honey Oat Ale
light • floral honey aroma, malty, sweet, refreshing 5.0% Catsburg beer is our own unique style. The honey flavor, derived entirely from the malts blends flawlessly with a unique toasted flavor from the Blond Roast Oat Malt. Sheriff Eugene Belvin, known for the Catsburg general store, was legendary for sneaking up on bootleggers. Rumor has it that he may have been a bootlegger himself and used his badge to get rid of competition. Change in Plans IPA
hoppy • west-coast style, piney, assertive hop bitterness 6.5% This IPA came about after adapting and pivoting in 2020, and it became an instant favorite. A throwback to the heyday of West Coast hop excess, it’s probably a little bitter for hazy crazies, but you’ll be punched in the palate with lots of pine, greenery, and a hint of tropical fruits. The beer finishes long and, you guessed it, bitter. Best consumed fresh, frequently, and with a salty snack. Stonewall Brown Ale
dark • cold-brew coffee, cocoa, dark fruit 5.5% Stonewall is a well-balanced, British-style brown ale bold enough to pair with the richest tasting beef burger or a veggie burger with cheese and aioli sauce. Named after NCCU hall of famer, Robert “Stonewall” Jackson. He was the first player from a historically black school drafted by the NFL. He touched countless lives as an assistant football coach, teacher and trainer at N.C. Central for 31 years. Jack Tar Dry Irish Stout (on Nitro)
dark & roasty • roasty flavors, coffee, light body 4.0% A true session stout like those from Ireland served on Nitrogen for a creamy head. Our Stout is dry, very dark and roasty with deep charred flavors, but still lighter in body and not super high in alcohol. There’s a pot of gold at the bottom of every pint, but be careful not to swallow it on the last sip. The Jack Tar was a hotel located at the end of Parrish Street where the big bull now stands. Bourbon Barrel-Aged Belgian Quadrupel
barrel-aged • caramel, vanilla, dark stone fruit, dark chocolate 9.5% After six months in a bourbon barrel the intense fruitiness of the quad is still intact, and now plays well with caramel and vanilla from the charred barrel. There is also nice spice from the bourbon as well as chocolate notes. The time is truly right to release this beer, when both the young, fresh flavors of the Quad and the more complex characteristics from barrel aging are in perfect harmony. |
