OUR BEER

2022 Silver Medal Winner at the Great American Beer Festival Our Helles Lager is inspired by the malt forward beers of Munich. This well-balanced beer offers the subtle aroma of the Hallertau hops of Bavaria with a touch of sweetness from Munich’s finest malt. Six weeks of cold conditioning gives this beer its bright, clean drinkability. The result is a refreshing golden lager for a sunny afternoon Bier Garten.

Our Kölsch is a crisp, light version of the best ales of Cologne. A well-balanced blend of select German malts, noble hops and top fermenting yeast give this beer a light-golden color. Its slightly fruity character is sometimes compared to the Riesling wines of Germany.

2024 Silver Medal Winner at the Great American Beer Festival 2024 Bronze Winner at The World Beer Cup® Our medium-bodied, amber colored Altbier is inspired by the malty ales of Düsseldorf. While the rest of Europe moved towards light Pilsners in the nineteenth century, the brewers of Düsseldorf focused on the traditional techniques of darker malts to make an “old beer” ale.

Our northern German variation of this popular style showcases the noble hops of Germany and the Czech Republic. Germany’s finest Pilsener malt gives a nice bready backbone to balance an abundant amount of hops. With less body than its Czech cousin, this refreshing beer really lets the hops come forward.

Our effervescent, hazy wheat beer is inspired by the finest examples in Munich. With notes of banana and clove this tangy and refreshing beer will quench any thirst.

2023 Silver Medal Winner at the Great American Beer Festival Our smoked Lager is inspired by the malt forward beers of Bamberg. No single moment in Germany had more impact on me as a brewer than drinking beer straight from the barrel at Aecht Schlenkerla in Bamberg. The malt is dried over Beechwood smoke, giving the beer its unique flavor. Balanced with the noble hops of Franconia, this beer is a unique pleasure.

Our full-bodied, malty lager honors the traditional beers of Munich’s Oktoberfest. The name comes from the German word for the month of March. For centuries before refrigeration, these beers were brewed in spring, stored in cold cellars all summer and consumed in the fall. Then and today, patience is required to make a great Märzen.

Our rich and malty, full-bodied lager honors the traditional “double strong” beers of Bavaria. Originally brewed by Benedictine monks, this “liquid bread” helped them through the long fasting period of Lent. Thirteen weeks of conditioning gives this lager it’s smooth finish.

Our medium bodied amber ale traces its roots back to Kilkenny, Ireland in the early 1700’s. With roasted barley and notes of caramel it shares the palate of a good Irish whiskey. It’s guaranteed to keep the leprechauns happy! Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Our medium bodied “strong” pale lager is named after the month of May. It is Bavaria’s traditional beer for welcoming the warmer days of spring. With generous additions of Munich and Vienna malts, this rich lager will thaw your soul and put a smile on your face.

Our take on this classic New England style focuses more on the juiciness and leaves the bitterness behind. Absurd amounts of Azacca, Mosaic and Citra hops give this IPA a refreshing fruity character.

Our session IPA cruises low and slow on a classic wave of old school American malt. West coast hops provide a cool breeze for a long, hot summer day!

Our medium bodied pale lager is an homage to the bier currently served at Munich’s Oktoberfest. It is a balancing act between strength and drinkability. Subtle but rich hints of Munich malt remind you that this is made for a celebration of bier! Enjoy!

Our single decoction medium bodied, amber colored Sticke Altbier is a tribute to a special malty ale of Düsseldorf. Twice a year the brewers of Düsseldorf make a secret, “Sticke” version of the Altbier for their regular customers. With heavier doses of malt and hops, this beer will make any moment special!

Our summer Lemon-Ale adds a touch of grapefruit and lime to accentuate that refreshing lemon flavor. Crisp and light, it’s a perfect refreshment for a day at the beach!

Our medium-bodied, deep gold colored Lager is a tribute to the beer Anton Dreher first brewed in Vienna, Austria in 1841. This is a malt forward beer with hints of caramel and toasted bread. A blend of Noble hops gives it a light and refreshing finish. We named it in honor of the city we are so proud to call our home, Evanston, Illinois!

Honoring the rich traditions of Mexican brewing, this light lager uses the finest selection of barley and corn. Noble hops provide a crisp finish to this unique malt character. The Zapata revolution for liberty and beer is alive and well at Double Clutch!
