Beer Descriptions
NOW POURING AT THE ROCKFISH GRILL!
Annie’s Amber (ABV 5.5% / IBU 40) Proudly named for the namesake of Anacortes, Annie Curtis, this elegant northwest-style Amber Ale is medium bodied with a slight piney character and a subtle malty twang. Columbus & Cascade hops provide a crisp balance.
Deception Pass Pale Ale (ABV 5.3% / IBU 45) A refreshing ale made with 2 row and Munich malts, Mosaic hop in the boil and dry hopped with Simcoe. New recipe for a popular favorite!
Highway to Helles (ABV 5.5% / IBU 18) Our Helles Lager is a tribute to the North Cascades Highway that runs through Anacortes. Highly drinkable and well-balanced, this refreshing session beer is brewed in the traditional German style, slightly malt forward with restrained bitterness from Crystal & Perle hops, finishing soft and dry.
Day of the Dead Mexican Lager (ABV 4.5 % / IBU 14) This beer is made with 2-row pilsner malt and flaked maize for a nice light body. Hopped with Tett and Perle for balance this is a nice easy drinker perfect for the change in the weather.
Erie Oatmeal Stout *Nitro*(ABV 6.5% / IBU 18) Named for the highest point on Fidalgo Island, Mount Erie, this beer is big and roasty on the front end with an inviting chocolate aroma. It’s full flavored with a silky medium-body and a bittersweet coffee note. Columbus, Perle & Cascade provide a delicate balance for a smooth and dry finish.
Scarlet Letter IPA (ABV 7.3% / 65 IBU) Our new Scarlet Letter recipe features a synergistic malt character from two row, C40 and Munich malt varieties with a touch of roasted barley for color, combining Cascade and Columbus hops in the boil and dry hopping from Simcoe and Ekuanot varieties
Vienna Lager (ABV 5.8% / IBU 12) Smooth and malty, this elegant amber lager is delicately hopped with Perle & hallertau varieties for aroma and balance.
March Point Porter (ABV 5% / IBU 35) A rich, dark ale named for the northeastern peninsula of our island, this beer features complex flavor from 4 malts and Perle & Cascade hops. Chocolate malt dominates taste and color in this otherwise balanced brew.
Whistle Lake Weizen (ABV 4.7% / IBU 18) Our award-winning Hefeweizen has a cloudy golden color and a full, fruity aroma. Bavarian yeast produces striking banana & clove. This summertime favorite is light-bodied with mild tartness finishing relatively dry – the perfect thirst quencher!
Marzen (ABV 5.6% / IBU 30) Malty and full bodied, this savory beer celebrates the traditional Bavarian festival. Delicately hopped and lagered for 8 weeks in our authentic cold storage cellar.
Cream Bee (ABV 5.9% / IBU 21) Brewed with close to 50 lbs of local honey and all pilsner malt to give this light ale a straw color, while Hallertauer and Spalter hops provide just the right amount of balance for a crisp, smooth finish. Enjoy this easy-drinker on a sunny, summer day!
Original IPA (ABV 7.3% / IBU 80) Our classic northwest style IPA has a good hop character supported with a sturdy backbone. Columbus, Cascade & Simcoe are dry-hopped in the fermenter producing moderate citrus and stone fruit aroma yielding to bold, prolonged hop flavor and bitterness.
