Our Beers - Nine Mile Brewing

Ordrozenie: Polish Grodziskie

ABV: 3.4%

Ordrozenie: Polish Grodziskie

A Grod…. What? This newest addition to our line up is a crushable lil’ banger of a beer. Steeped in tradition & hyper-locality (in this case Poland), this smoked wheat beer hits a bunch of notes simultaneously. We decided to name it Ordrozenie - loosely translated to “revival” in Polish - as this ancient style of beer is slowly making a comeback… even here stateside in the US. These beers originally hail from the town of Grodzisk, Poland. A Grodziskie (pronounced: grow-GEE-skee-ya) traditionally is made with 100 percent oak-smoked wheat & noble European hops. It’s highly carbonated, dry, refreshing, & has a slight minerality to the finish. Keeping with tradition, we also used only oak-smoked wheat for our malt bill. Saphir hops provide an assertive, crisp balance with a nearly imperceptible grassy, herbal note. A lovely Kolsch yeast strain from our pals at The Yeast Bay rounded it off and dried it out nicely. We cold-conditioned this for a couple weeks (a “mini-lager phase”, if you will) to get it even crispier for everyone to imbibe this beer in heaps. Enjoy this unique & damn delicious ale outside with family & friends over a feast with your favorite smoked foods… or kicked back in a lawn chair doing absolutely nothing. Whatever it may be, relax & chill y’all! Na Zdrowie!

Money Gose, Honey Stay – Key Lime Honey Gose

It’s getting to that time of year, y’all. The sun is finally deciding to show its face in earnest & the heat/humidity are hot on its tail. This newest sour to our line up its sure to quench & slay your thirst to the utmost. We started off with a super simple & clean grist of Bohemian Pilsner, White Wheat, & Acidulated malts. Apollo hops provide delicate balance while also contributing a lil’ citrus of its own. Sea salt & coriander were added to the boil for that classic Gose drip. A double drop of local MN clover honey from our pals at Bare Honey (whirlpool & fermenter additions) add bright & very light sweet notes, as well as a bit o’ body. Lastly, a decent smack of Key Lime puree layers into the whole, but does not overpower everything.Light, refreshing, tart, & dry… get your mitts on this lil’ crusher for sure!

We partnered up with our friends at The Get Down Coffee Co. in North MPLS to utilize their Turn Tables house dark roast to bring forth overt notes of dark chocolate & lovely, exceptional coffee. Last, but certainly not least, grips of cacao nibs & cinnamon sticks round out the diverse character of this beer.

Saison Ménage

This bright, punchy Belgian-focused ale is an ode & homage to the varied & storied style that is the wonderful Saison. This particular interpretation of the saison is named as such to be enjoyed around a table with members of your household - or “mènage” - over excellent conversation, food, & games. Amend “household” to include whomever in this case! Any which way you parse it & with whom you choose to imbibe with… cheers & enjoy! A fairly simple grist of pilsner, white wheat, torrified wheat, & spelt malts lend a clean, soft background. Loral hops give off light grassy, floral, & citrus notes. A unique, expressive yeast strain captured & isolated off of honeybee hives from The Yeast Bay incorporates lovely aromas/flavors of dry lime peel & Sauv Blanc grapes along with a bit of minerality & a touch of white peppercorn.
