PUB / SPECIALTY BEERS

We brew quite a variety of beers, and of course, are not able to bottle them all. Fortunately we have three unique pubs in which to pour these creations. Some we brew on a more regular basis and some are one-off experiments we may only pour a keg of. Highlighted below are a list of some of our more well-known pub specialty beers. For those who are curious, the number of beers Elysian has ever brewed has passed the big 1–8–0. Of course, that number is styles – if you count batches, we are well past our 2000th brew which was Imperial Avatar in 2009.

Ambrosia Maibock
Slightly strong, slightly sweet, very drinkable. In celebration of the sunny and cool days of Spring.

Arboreal Chestnut Brown
To deal with your nutty relatives. Inspired by the Chestnut beers of Corsica, for the holiday season.

Backhanded Compliment
Belgian IPA. Brewed in the tradition of American-hopped Belgian ales brewed in the tradition of American IPAs brewed with Belgian yeast—got it?

Barca bitter
For our friends at the Barca Lounge. As traditional a British bitter as we've done.

Bete Noel
Belgian-style Christmas ale.The dark side of the holidays, as treacherous as its paler sister.

Bye-bye frost
Encourages hibernation. An extremely strong pale ale to warm up cold winter souls.

Dry-hopped ipa
Our Immortal IPA with even more hops.

Cyclops Barley wine "Old one-eye"
The biggest of beers. Caramel and raisin maltiness with a clobber of hoppiness and a little astringency… potent.

Daedalus irish stout
A perfectly constructed Irish stout. Stately, plump. Nitrogen-poured, Irish-style dry stout.

Foster child Australian lager
Elysian for beer. Extremely sessionable — drink without abandon.

Golden Boot (The)
A nice touch. Brewed in honor of Seattle soccer.

Haleakala
Hibiscus Sour Ale. Wild yeast and tart flowers come together in this beer named after Maui's easterly volcano.

Hubris imperial ipa
Our hop delivery device. For all you hop-heads out there – you know who you are.

Idiot Sauvin
You're not as smart as you think you are. An IPA showcasing the distinct citrus and passion fruit character of Nelson Sauvin hops.

Loki Lager
A smooth Dortmund-style lager. Named for the Norse god and jester Loki, this beer is a North German-style lager, orangey-gold in color, with a touch more malt than a classic pilsner.

Pandora’s Bock
Unleash the unknown. A gift from Zeus, Pandora came to earth with a box which when opened released all the ills that now afflict mankind.

Poison dwarf Scottish-style ale
What can a poor boy do? Poison dwarves are what Keith Richards and others have called the tough little street fighting men of Glasgow — ruthlessly hoppy for a Scottish ale.

Prometheus (Stolen Fire) ipa
Pale orange, fruity, hoppy and strong.

Rosemary's Baby
This is no dream. This is really real!. An refreshing IPA brewed with rosemary branches in the mash and at the end of the boil.

Saison Elysee
Our classic Belgian-style farmhouse ale. Sweet malty aromatics, spicy taste and dry finish — a funky summer’s day brew.

Saison poivre (Peppercorn saison)
A Belgian farmhouse ale with a fiery and aromatic touch.

Valhalla
Fill your horn with this hoppy pagan red ale.

Yuzu’s Belgian-style golden ale
Light. Refreshing. Good. A citrus-y, thirst-quenching beer that won’t weigh you down.
