Hammerfall
West Coast IPA
Pine, grapefruit pith, a dry bitter finish that does not apologise.

Brewery and taproom, Jacksonville
Ten barrels, two brewers and a canning line that runs on Thursdays. Everything we make gets poured forty feet from the tank it came out of.
The core lineup
These six never leave the wall. Everything else rotates, which is a polite way of saying it is gone by Sunday. Ask what is on the chalkboard and the answer changes weekly.
West Coast IPA
Pine, grapefruit pith, a dry bitter finish that does not apologise.
Pilsner
Cracker malt, noble hops, cold and clean and gone too fast.
Dry Irish Stout
Roasted barley, dark chocolate, a coffee bite on the back end.
New England IPA
Mango, tangerine, soft as a thumb. Brewed and canned the same week.
Kolsch
Bready and bright. The one we drink after we clean the tanks.
Barrel Aged Porter
Fourteen months in bourbon oak. Vanilla, molasses, a warm slow finish.
The label wall
Four packs go out the roll up door the same afternoon they come off the line. If a can has a date on it older than a month, we did something wrong.

The taproom
A concrete floor, a long steel bar and picnic tables that fill up by six. Dogs are welcome, kids are welcome until nine, and there is always a food truck parked out back on the weekend.
640 Talleyrand Avenue
Jacksonville, Florida
Lot behind the building. Growlers filled until close.
