Flagships
Allerton Ale
Patersbier - Based on the beer the famous monk brewers of Belgium brew and keep for themselves, Allerton Ale is a light and refreshing brew.
Allerton Ultra
Cream Ale - Similar to a light American lager, Allerton Ultra is light in both flavor and body. Our take on the American classic uses a Belgian yeast to add enough character to please.
Marshall D's
Hefeweizen - A little darker than your typical Hefeweizen, Marshall D's is sure to please with its prominent esters typical of the German beer it's named after.
Wapsi Daisy
American IPA - The blend of Simcoe and Centennial hops provide a flavor profile any IPA fan is sure to enjoy, the citrus of the Centennial is well balanced by the woodsy notes of the Simcoe.
Seasonal
Jay Bird
Named after Allerton's sire, this Irish Red has a rich and smooth malt character that is well balanced with two hops additions.
World Record Stout
Allerton set quite a few records in his day, and the most famous Irish Stout in the world keeps track of world records.
Oktoberfest
Our Oktoberfest has strong malt character balanced by the addition of noble hops.
Winter Quarters
This Scottish derived beer has generous addition of mulling spices to really bring out the Christmas cheer.
Rotating
Col. Lake
A pale well balanced, smooth German style lager that is slightly stronger than the average beer. Colonel Lake is the gentleman who sold land to Charlie Williams, and it became Rush Park.
Gussie Wilkes
Named after the mother of our favorite race horse, Gussie Wilkes is a malt forward beer made with 100% British malt.
Square Nail
Oatmeal and maple syrup are added to Square Nail Brown to balance the roasted notes from the malt bill. The name comes from the square nails used to hold our floor in place.
Hopper Amber
Amber Ale with strong malt character and American hops. Named after Harry E. Hopper from Indianola, IA who owned Allerton after his racing career ended
Wengert Burton Ale
Historic British beer style from Burton-Upon-Trent, it almost disappeared from existence when Burton brewers started to make IPAs. Named after one of the old Independence breweries.
Captain Lee ESB
Despite bitter being in the name, an ESB is not a bitter beer. Captain Lee ESB is loaded with malt flavor and balanced by a subtle hop bitterness. Named after the first mayor of Independence.
IPA
Hay Dreams
Nelson Sauvin, Citra and Mosaic hops. Need we say more? You'll be dreaming of this beer, just like we're sure Allerton dreamed of hay.
Homestretch
NEIPA made with locally grown Mackinac hops from Cedar Falls Hops Co.
Trotter
Hints of coconut and pineapple give you a tropical feel in this new NEIPA.
Porter/Stout
Seeland Porter
Christian Seeland was one of the first brewery owners in Independence. This pre-prohibition porter uses flaked corn and molasses to give tribute to the days of Seeland's brewery.
King's Hall Stout
Traditional American stout with a prominent roast character and smooth mouthfeel.
Wapsie Valley Milk Stout
Sweet stout showcasing lactose from Independence's own Wapsie Valley Creamery. Has a prominent roast character from the malt bill and smooth mouthfeel from the addition of lactose.
Special Release
