Now on Tap
Hefeweizen
Our former intern, Alex, now works with Omega Yeast, and he swung through Ardent during a road trip to help us brew a collaboration beer!
Using a custom Omega yeast blend and traditional German hops, we brewed a classic Hefeweizen that pours a hazy, pale straw color with high carbonation. Hefeweizen is a German-style, unfiltered wheat beer that features distinctive pear, banana, and vanilla flavors.
4% ABV • 11 IBU
Highpoint DIPA
Our newest DIPA was brewed with a house yeast blend that finishes clean and allows the hops to shine. Highpoint DIPA was triple dry hopped, predominantly with Galaxy and rounded out with Citra and El Dorado, for a tropical fruit aroma and flavors of pear and citrus. Fans of hazy DIPAs, this beer’s for you!
Schwarzbier
Schwarzbier is a sessionable dark German lager with a slightly chocolaty, roasted aroma. Medium bodied, with a crisp, clean mouthfeel. Subtle malt flavors are balanced by moderate hop bitterness, followed by a pleasantly roasty finish. #neverstoplagering
Winner of the gold medal in the Darker European Beer category at the 2016 Virginia Craft Beer Cup
berliner weisse
Berliner Weisse is tart and refreshing, pale straw colored, cloudy and effervescent. Light body and high carbonation complement the clean sour flavor with notes of lemon and citrus, and the low alcohol content allows a hint of the malt profile to shine through.
bohemian pilsner
Bohemian Pilsner is a traditional Czech pilsner, brewed with a simple recipe of Czech floor malt, Saaz hops, and a Czech lager yeast. Bo Pils pours a clear golden color with soft mouthfeel, spicy hop notes, and clean finish. #neverstoplagering
Winner of the silver medal in the Czech Lager category at the 2018 Virginia Craft Beer Cup
