Our first of two collabs with our friends from DSSOLVR is a crusher: MXiCN Lager! Ardent and DSSOLVR both love lagers, so we developed this recipe together that was right in our wheelhouse.
MXiCN Lager is a crisp, clean beer brewed with rice and corn for a dry, refreshing finish. Clocking in at 4.4% ABV, you’ll be reaching for this light-bodied beer whenever you need a pick-me-up on a hot, summer afternoon. #neverstoplagering
Plus, Intergalactic Tacos will be cooking in the beer garden all night. Beer and tacos: the perfect combination! 🌮
We're thrilled to announce our second beer to be released in cans: IPA X!
IPA X is double dry hopped with Citra and Mosaic hops, an exciting combination that provides big citrus and tropical fruit notes in both aroma and flavor. This juicy beer pours a cloudy, deep golden color, with super low bitterness and a silky soft mouthfeel.
7.1% ABV • 10 IBU
4-packs of 16 oz. cans will be available in the brewery beginning Thursday, August 2, and will hit shelves around RVA shortly thereafter.
Go Go Vegan Go will be the food truck in the beer garden for our first ever can release of IPA X!
ardentcraftales Meet our newest intern, Nicole! She’s a biology student at @vcu, and has worked in taprooms and brewpubs for several years already. She’ll be working in the back of the house here at Ardent, helping out with lab work and learning more about the brewing process along the way.
Nicole is originally from Florida, but has come to love it here in #RVA. Beyond beer, she enjoys backpacking and rock climbing, and is looking forward to exploring the world of mountaineering. She’s pictured here in the Chilean Patagonia, part of a two-week backpacking trip through Chile and Peru!
