Blonde Ale

The first of our year-round beers is also the least hoppy and lightest. This American style blonde ale finishes cleanly and is the style many who are new to craft beer try first. Cascade hops balance the light malts in this refreshing and mild-mannered ale. It is an excellent session beer, with lower alcohol than our other styles, while still remaining a full-bodied craft ale.
This beer is certified organic and is perfect anytime, and consistently remains a top seller and is one we consider as a gateway beer to enjoying craft styles!

Stats:

American Amber Ale

A nicely balanced amber ale pairing Northwest hops with organic barley. This amber ale in no way overwhelems the palate. The smooth base of Cascade hops pairs well with the rich malts used in this classic style. As you can see, this beer is darker than our blonde, but not overly sweet. This amber ale has three boil-hop additions and is not dry-hopped. The use of traditional Munich, Crystal and Vienna malts create a pleasant base to showcase the Northwest hops.

Stats:

NSN IPA

NSN stands for "Never Say Never". Every brewery has an IPA. For every five craft beers sold in a supermarket, one is an IPA. IPA is by far the most dominant and recognized style out there, which prompted our Brewmaster to say that he would probably never brew an IPA. Hence the name! Our NSN IPA is unlike traditional hop-bomb IPA styles. It is citrusy, crisp, clean and slightly sweet. At only 45 IBU's, it is actually toward the low-end for an IPA, despite the fact that it has over 1.25 pounds of hops per barrel!

Stats:

Double IPA

Why make a single IPA when you can make a double year-round? One of the first continually brewed double-IPAs in the USA, this specially crafted ale features Columbus/Tomahawk/Zeus and Cascade additions at four points in the boil, and over the fermentation period two dry-hop additions are utilized. Even with all these hops, we strove to create a balanced and drinkable double IPA. This DIPA finishes cleanly, and has a even-handed citrusy aroma with a faint resinous quality.

Stats:

9 Grain Porter

9 different grains are combined in this organic porter, which also includes Columbus, Galena and Mount Hood hops. The silky feel of this porter accentuates the varied chocolate notes, and the creamy head stays put as you drink it. Hints of roasted caramel come through in this balanced ale, and the robust porter style's classic dark color, mild-bitterness and malty flavor are exemplified in this beer.

Stats:

Salted Caramel Stout

Our darkest year-round ale, the salted caramel stout is not one to pass up. Even people who claim to not like darker beers are amazed at the balanced smoothness and toffee notes of this imperial stout. Mild Golding and Saaz hops are used in the boil for this beer, along with seven different grains. We occasionally offer this on nitro, which only accentuates the smoothness of this ale.

Stats:

Lemon Ginger Wheat

A zesty combination of lemon peel, lemongrass, and three types of ginger! This summer beer has a light lemony aroma with a hint of real ginger. Golden in color and light in body, the subtle wheat malt comes through with ease. A slight warming on the palate after the first sip is brought forward by the ginger and the moderate alcohol that finishes cleanly and crisply as befitting a summer wheat ale.

Stats:

Honey Basil Ale

Sweet, mild and light bodied. This session style ale is made with organic honey and organic basil from locally grown farms. The basil is present in the aroma and the soft herbal aftertaste of this honey beer. This is one of our signature beers, and one that is asked about during the off-season when organic basil is not available locally. Unfortunately it is not available all year, so get it when you can!

Stats:

Northwest Red IPA

A seasonal IPA that can be found in the late summer and fall, with a notable hop character in the nose and early palate, but not the traditional back-palate bittering found in most Northwest IPAs. A base of organic 2-row malt and four specialty grains round out this robust and aromatic beer. We used a variety of different hops, from Simcoe to Cascade to create this IPA, and it is one of our staff-favorites.

Stats:

House Made Root Beer

A truly brewed root beer, made in small one-barrel batches. Unlike commonly found sodas which are mixed cold and contain artificial ingredients, our handcrafted root beer contains all natural and organic incredients sourced from local farms and suppliers. Star anise, wintergreen, cinnamon bark, burdock root, sarsparilla root, dandelion root, licorice root, yuca root, vanilla, honey and hops are combined by hand using a secret recipe found only here at Cloud 9 Brewery.

This traditional style root beer is a surefire winner for people of all ages.

House Made Ginger Ale

Like all of our brewed soft drinks, we chose to not use ale yeast to carbonate our ginger beer, so there is no alcohol present. Fresh ginger, lemongrass, yuca root, lemon and honey are the ingredients in this version of an 18th century classic.

This sweet, spicy, bubbly soda really compliments a number of our entrees and salads. It is also used as a base in a few of our alcoholic beverages, for those who want to try a more spirited version!

Huckleberry Grapefruit Soda

A seasonal soda usually offered in mid-to-late Summer. This soda is usually mixed with our German Ale for our Radler beer, but it can definitely be enjoyed on its own! Using all-natural ingredients and force carbonating it in the keg ensures this sprightly and citrusy soda is fresh all Summer long!
