What's Pouring This Season
Spring is when we get restless. The winter beers start to feel heavy, the days get longer, and the urge to brew something bright and a little reckless takes over. Here’s what’s landed on the taps for spring 2026 — and a couple of things we’re testing in the back that you might see before summer.
New on Tap
Sycamore Street Saison — We’ve been talking about doing a saison for three years. It finally happened. Brewed with locally sourced Missouri wheat and a Belgian yeast strain that gives it a dry, peppery finish. Pours a hazy gold. 6.2% ABV. It’s going fast.
Wildflower Honey Blonde — This one’s a collaboration with a beekeeper out of Rocheport. The honey goes in late in the boil so it ferments almost completely out, leaving just a whisper of sweetness. Clean, crushable, dangerous. 4.8% ABV.
Returning Favourites
Katy Trail Wheat is back for its fourth season. If you’ve had it before, you already know. If you haven’t: unfiltered, a little hazy, a little citrusy, exactly what a spring afternoon in Columbia should taste like. We only make it until June, so don’t wait.
On the Horizon
We’ve got two things conditioning right now that we’re not ready to name yet. One is a dry-hopped amber that came out of a brewing accident in January — turned out better than what we were trying to make. The other is a low-ABV lager built specifically for patio weather. Both should hit the taps by May if everything goes according to plan (it usually doesn’t, but we’re optimistic).
In the Kitchen
Chef Dana’s spring menu is running alongside the tap updates. A few highlights worth knowing about:
The Smoked Whitefish Dip is back with house-made crackers instead of the generic toast points we were serving. Massive improvement. The Grain Bowl has gotten a spring refresh — roasted asparagus and pickled radish in place of the winter root vegetables. And the dessert menu now features a rotating cobbler that changes with whatever fruit is actually in season rather than whatever is available year-round at the broadline distributor.
A Note on Hours
We’re extending patio service starting May 1st. Weather permitting, we’ll be seating outside from 11am until close Thursday through Saturday. The new outdoor heaters from last fall have given us some flexibility on cooler evenings too, so don’t let a 55-degree forecast stop you.
See you at the bar.
