Goldihops if you want to ease into the evening,
Overtone Pale Ale if you want something with backbone.
Goldihops is a true session beer—low alcohol, gentle bitterness—that won't wear you out after two or three. Overtone's got more muscle: higher ABV, nearly double the IBUs, and a noticeably drier finish that demands your attention. Pick based on your mood and what comes next.

Goldihops
Goldihops drinks like the brewers understood restraint. You get a soft golden pour with just enough malt sweetness to keep things interesting, but it never oversells itself. The hops are there—you can catch a mild herbal note—but they're playing support, not stealing the show. It's the kind of beer you don't think about too hard; you just keep reaching for it.
Overtone Pale Ale
Overtone Pale Ale hits differently. There's real citrus and pine character up front, with a clean bitterness that lingers on your palate in a way that feels intentional. The 4.5% ABV gives it enough body to feel like a proper drink, not just flavored water. This one rewards paying attention—sip it slow and you'll notice the complexity.
