What's On Tap

Pilsner - 4.7% ABV

Light but flavorful, we hope you will enjoy our version of this style whether after a long bike ride or long day.  Pilsners are one of the most popular beers in the world due to their crisp, refreshing taste.  Clean with notes of herbal tea and honey, our brew’s flavor is rounded out with traditional German hops. 

NEIPA - 6.2% ABV

A hazy that might remind you of dropping down the front of Cannon Mountain on skis or board. With flavors of grapefruit and pineapple and aromas of apricot and peach, we hope you enjoy this tribute to a local legend.

American Brown - 5.8% ABV 

This gently sweet, but darker brown ale is a fan favorite with notes of chocolate, nuts, and toffee.  It is dry hopped to give it a warm floral aroma. Our tribute to a favorite way to get to the top of Cannon Mountain.

Milk Stout w/ Chocolate - 7.4% ABV

This dark ale is made with lactose giving it sweetness and full body. Ghirardelli chocolate is added to increase the rich flavor already in the roasted malts used in this brew.  This stout is as smooth as its namesake, the popular trail.

Belgian Blonde - 6% ABV

The yeast used in this light, sunny colored ale gives it a balance of delicate fruit esters and subtle spicy notes, while the hops lend a bit of bitterness and citrus.  This beer is a cousin to our Belgian Triple (Three Gnomes) and their little brother (Little Gnome).

NEIPA - 6.2% ABV

Named in part for a favorite trail of many of us, this is a collaboration between Colorado Brew (younger brother Adam) and IFB.  Look for flavors of pineapple, papaya, and apricot with a zest of citrus. We encourage you to take a moment and look up the other connections the Greenleaf family name has to Franconia.

American Porter - 5.8% ABV

If you’ve been in Northern New England very long, you’ve experienced the season “third winter” and probably have your own definition of what it is and when it occurs.  This dark, malty beer has a character of roasted coffee, semi-sweet chocolate, and a touch of caramel with hops that make you feel warm as it goes down.  We hope this porter makes “third winter” just a bit more bearable.

NE DIPA - 8% ABV

Although we originally brewed this Double IPA to gain the admiration of one of our local patrons, it has now become a favorite of many.  Bursting with Citra hops that add a smooth, citrusy bitterness, the base malt of this beer starts sweet and clean.

Belgian Triple - 8.2% ABV

Golden, strong, and somewhat dry, this big beer is still smooth with fruity and spicy notes on the nose and palette. If you like this beer but would like a little less kick, keep your eyes open for and consider its little brother (Little Gnome) or its cousin (Knees in the Breeze).

Fruited Sour - 6% ABV 

This version of our sour is made with mango and pineapple.  While the pH in the name (pronounced “fool”) gives tribute to the acidity required to brew this beer, there are different opinions as to whom stubborn refers. You be the judge. Lactose and yeast come together to make it sour. If you’ve never had a sour, give it three sips before you decide if you like it.

Fruited Sour - 6% ABV

At the request of a family member this beer was first brewed, and has now become a staple of our lineup.  This “OG” version is made with whole raspberries, blueberries, and blackberries that give its flavor and color. As you may know, the pH in the name (pronounced “fool”) gives tribute to the acidity required to brew this beer.  Lactose and yeast come together to make it sour. If you’ve never had a sour, give it three sips before you decide if you like it.

Belgian Pale Ale - 5% ABV 

Light in color with somewhat spicy/fruity character, our tribute to a Belgian Pale is soft and smooth with light hop character.  This is the little brother of our Belgian Triple, Three Gnomes.  

NE DIPA - 8.3% ABV

Weather-wise, a sundog is a phenomenon that occurs when sunlight refracts through ice crystals in the atmosphere creating colored spots of light in the sky.  However, our SunDog has a double meaning which not only includes this, but also the dogs (especially golden retrievers) in our lives who love being outside in the winter.  Look for a fresh, zesty aroma with powerful grapefruit and citrus flavors, as well as notes of white wine.

Imperial Stout - 9.5% ABV

Old Stone Stack is the nickname of the original Iron Furnace located just down the road and across the river.  A big, dark beer made with NH maple syrup, coffee, and chocolate, this stout is a seasonal favorite of many.  A huge thank you to the Gaudette Family for the maple syrup.  We pour this beer in a smaller serving due to the alcohol content.  Consider letting it warm up just a bit to bring out its robust flavors.

NEIPA - 6.2% ABV

Our tribute to a local icon, this favorite is just as distinct as the area itself.  With a complex flavor profile that includes citrus, floral, pine, and berries, we hope the taste satisfies those who enjoy a bold NEIPA.

NEIPA - 6.2% ABV

When we first walked into the space we now call IFB, we knew it was destined to be our brewery.  Atop the original cupola was a bent weathervane we affectionately deemed, you guessed it, The Crooked Cricket.  You can now find it standing strong and high between the barn and the brewhouse at the same angle we originally found it. This NEIPA has light floral and stone fruit aromas along with zesty tangerine on the pallet.  

Golden Ale - 5.5% ABV 

Our sunny-hued light, easy drinking ale with just the right amount of sweetness, maltiness, and a hint of fruit notes that comes from the hops. It is named for the small, white wildflower found here in New Hampshire with glossy evergreen leaves and bright yellow roots.
