A TRIBUTE TO THE HEROES OF GWINNETT COUNTY FIRE
STATION 13.

Since the dawn of time the survival instinct coded into our DNA compels us to run from fire. In contrast firefighters run towards a fire to save people they may not even know. Firefighting is a calling that requires you to have the fire in your belly that says you have what it takes every day you strap on the gear. Our brewery was once housed Gwinnett County Fire Station 13 better known as “The Fighting 13th”. In honor of them and their contributions to our community the first beer ever brewed in our new home was a Red IPA named for them. Toasted and caramel malts give the beer a hearty and maltier character without ever being sweet. Thirteen additions of Centennial hops throughout the boil and during fermentation lead to a huge grapefruit nose with pine resin and spice complementing it. The flavors are equally bold and compliment the aroma perfectly. A firm yet smooth finish prepares you to go back in until you are staring at the bottom of an empty pint. Make sure to say cheers to “The Fighting 13th” next time you have one!
