Bewilder Brewing Co

We start with malt grown specifically for this style of beer from Cologne Germany. that gives this has a mildly sweet grain aroma with some floral hop character. The body is light and refreshing with a pilsner like grain quality with mild honey notes. *This beer is Gluten Reduced! -Voted Top 3 Best Local Beer in City Weekly's "Best Of Utah" edition. - NABA 2022 Bronze Medal Winner!

With inspiration from Leonardo Da Vinci, this collaboration beer for The Leonardo Museum of Creativity and Innovation uses Italian and French ingredients (Da Vinci was born in Italy, but died in France) for a perfect balance in this new(er) style pilsner. Italian pilsners capture the balance and drinkability of classic German pils, but they insert a beautiful, yet restrained, fresh, Noble-hops character through generous dry hopping. Da Vinci's diagram of the study of the proportions of the human body, as described by Roman architect Vitruvius, shows that arm span was equal to height in a perfectly proportioned body. We believe this might be a perfectly proportioned Italian Pilsner, so the name seemed fitting.

While a true American IPA by definition starts at 5.5%, we here in Utah have embraced the idea of “session” IPAs for their drinkability and availability on tap per Utah law requiring draft beer be under 5% ABV. Mosaic, Citra, and Galaxy hops provide the dominant hop profile of the beer with a pleasantly grapefruit citrus character and just the right amount of bitterness to make this a truly sessionable beer.

Jucy, Hazy, NEIPA, however you like to define the family of beers, this one delivers ALL the soft lovable hugs to your palate. We hit the fermentation multiple times for maximum flavor of some cool hops on this latest version of a session hazy beer for our taps. Made with low color maris this beer has just the right color and malt balance. Citra and Eldorado do the heavy lifting, but we added a fun new hop called Bru-1 characterized by juicy pineapple and green fruit. So open your arms (mouth), and get ready for a hug of flavor.

Pumpkin beers are becoming popular enough to have their very own category. This year, our version of the Autumn Seasonal Beer uses our ESB as a base with just the right amount of pumpkin spice to get you in the mood for Fall. The generous malt body and amber color is perfect this time of year and the balance with the spice is hard to beat, and is anything but basic.

The name is a nod to a classic movie, but Schwarzbier, literally means “black beer” in German, and sometimes called a “black Pils”. Our version of this beer is somewhat malty with a nice dry finish. This is a dark beer that drinks like it’s lighter cousins, with a hint of roasted character.

With the success of the Imperial Mole Porter, we decided to brew a draft strength version of this English style porter, with spices reminiscent of Mexican Mole sauce. Mole (or Americanized “Molé”) comes from an old Nahuati word for “mix”, or “sauce”, referring to the plethora of ingredients in mole dishes. The basic, Chipotle peppers, cinnamon, and cacao, pairs well with the coffee and dark chocolate character of an English porter, so we threw them together for a rich and complex beer that stays surprisingly drinkable. This is a one of a kind beer that is great for Halloween, Dia de los Muertos, Thanksgiving, and all through the holidays.

slightly hoppier than a typical Belgian beer, but less so than an American Pale Ale. It's more estery than a US Pale, but not as estery as other Belgian Beers. It pours a nice copper color, and the aroma has med-low notes of bubble gum, apple peel, and pepper. All of that is yeast derived. inishes dry with the lingering esters from the Belgian yeast. A complex and flavorful beer.

We start with a light German ale base beer with mellow hops and a good malt backbone, then added lightly roasted special blend whole coffee bean from Kings Peak Coffee Roasters in Salt Lake City, for a mild coffee character while still the beer light in color and drinkability.

Porter with spruce tips

"West Coast PIlsner". West Coast Pils is a bit of a new thing. Think of it like a German pilsner, but using American hops that would usually be associated with West Coast IPA. Pours a pale yellow color with a white cap of foam. Aroma has some notes of lemon and citrus fruit and a touch of pine resin and hay. Flavor follows suit.

Inspired by the constant evolution of the West Coast IPA style, Gecko Fingers uses a surprisingly simple grain bill and clean fermenting yeast that provides just enough backbone to support the hops, without getting in the way. All the modern tricks were used to layer huge amounts of hop character all over this beer, with heavy handed additions of El Dorado and CTZ throughout the process.

At 8%, this is pretty big beer for Bewilder, but at its core, this
style is for beer lovers fascinated by hops. The late hopping,
indicative of the NEIPA style, provides the same intense hop
experience through flavor and aroma instead of, but not without,
mild bitterness. We use, Citra, Sabro, Mosaic, and El Dorado hops,
which produces a huge tropical fruit aroma and flavor dominated
by pineapple with mild citrus, but there is no fruit juice in this
beer. -NABA 2022 Gold Medal Winner!

Premium German ingredients in this namesake of the Oktoberfest celebration, gives the Marzen its beautiful amber color and rich malty backbone that makes it so easy to drink.

Bewilder's first bottled beer! This is a Belgian farmhouse style ale brewed with hibiscus and rose hips, just for Valentines Day!

The Barrel Aged Mole Porter is back!!! This beer is a big fan favorite, dare we say it has a following, and this year's batch is incredible! This is an imperial strength English style porter, with spices reminiscent of Mexican Mole sauce. Mole (or Americanized “Molé”) comes from an old Nahuati word for “mix”, or “sauce”. In addition to the basic ingredients, Chipotle peppers, cinnamon, and cacao, we also added Mexican vanilla, Mulato and Pasilla Negro peppers. For added depth, we also aged the porter in Tequila and Mezcal barrels for 8 months. All of this comes together for a rich and complex beer that keeps you coming back for more.

This is the BIG brother to our 60 shilling Party Guy. In collaboration with Strap Tank Brewery in Lehi Utah, this single malt Scottish style ale was brewed at both breweries with a massively extended boil time then blended together for a truly one of a kind kettle caramelized beer. This is a malt forward beer with some alcohol warmth, but very drinkable for it’s age. This beer won a gold at the North American Brewers Association National Beer and Cider competition in 2022!

We used a similar base with this recipe as we do for our other sour beers for a refreshing, medium-alcohol beer with a clean lactic sourness. We then dry hopped it with Idaho Gem hops, added copious amounts of cranberry puree, a lot of fresh orange peel, and some cinnamon. This is a one of a kind flavor medley that came just in time for the holiday season. You have to try it.

This new Hazy IPA uses Cryo Pop hops which contain concentrated lupulin resins and aromatic oils. They are designed to provide intense hop flavor and aroma, with little vegetal matter. We used them in whirlpool and dry hopping for bright fresh fruity hop character. We also used Cosmic Punch™ Ale yeast that generates thiols through biotransformation, releasing tropical aromas experienced in southern hemisphere hops.. This punchy strain unleashes vibrant grapefruit, passion fruit and guava notes. We then enlisted the help of local artist Sadie Burzan for the stellar label art.

We just had to use premium German ingredients for this German classic. The floor-malted pilsner malt gives our version an extra little bump in the malt character added to a subtle toasted bread flavor from the Munich malt. The German hops keep things balanced but still slightly malt forward and very drinkable with a clean grainy lager finish.

This is a full-bodied, dark smoke beer. The fine Weyermann beechwood- smoky notes combined with the aroma of espresso invite you to take your first sip. On the tongue it impresses with pronounced notes of malt reminiscent of dark chocolate and bread crust. Together with the fine smoky impressions it becomes an harmonious, characterful beer that goes well with flavors in rich meats and ham.

Dampfbier: Literally translated as "steam beer" is a unique and obscure beer style that comes from the wooded areas of Bavaria. The grain bill is similar to Marzen, so the base beer has similar rich caramel and bready notes to it. It's then fermented on the warmer side with German Hef yeast. The banana ester and clove/nutmeg phenolics from the yeast interact with the more sweet and rich malt flavors and give it a very unique flavor. Hints of cinnamon, nutmeg, and other fall spices as well as a touch of banana in the background. Very interested beer.
