| 10° Plato |
4.0 |
Inspired by one of the lightest beer styles, we brewed this pale lager with premium Czech ingredients, including Bohemian floor malted pilsner malt and Saaz hops. With a total conditioning time of 12 weeks, 10 Plato showcases well integrated herbaceous and citrus notes atop a doughy malt backbone, with an elegant effervescence and incredibly crisp finish. |
| 2024 Patience & Promise |
13.0 |
After 18 long months in a single Rye Whiskey barrel, our first ever Rye Whiskey Barrel Aged Imperial Stout is ready. Brewed in Januray and then barreled in June of 2023, this beer has had a long time to rest amongst us in the taproom. In this place and all this time, Patience & Promise has gained an additional and entirely unique ingredient; the energy imbued by the people who visit this taproom and make INBC flourish. Every word of our meaningful conversations, live music, poetry readings, dialogues, presentations, and laughter were heard, resonating within the staves - and subsequently the beer within them. Every body that walked into our taproom brought warmth and good energy, encouraging the beer to permeate into every pore of its woody vessel, aquiring its distinctive character. In so many ways, this beer was made by you as much as it was made by us, and has become ours. We have noticed your patience, and it is finally time for us to deliver on our promise. |

60 Pale Ale is a collaboration with Wilderness Watch that celebrates the 60th anniversary of the Wilderness Act. It is brewed with a complex myriad of American and European malts before a generous hopping of Centennial and Chinook throughout the boil and whirlpool. 60 pours a bright and pale copper color in the glass, expressing notes of citrus, pine, summer flowers, honey, and gentle toastiness that finishes dry and quenching. Enjoy this elegant and classic pale ale from within your favorite Wilderness area! Cheers to 60 years! |
| Above The Clouds |
|
A non-alcoholic adaptation of one of our most popular lagers, Above the Clouds is brewed with 100% barley and fermented with a world renowned lager yeast. Bright, zesty hops shine through a clean, pilsner-inspired malt base, creating an experience that blurs the line between classic drinkability and contemporary flair. Vibrant notes of white grape, tropical fruit, and citrus zest from Hallertau Blanc, Nelson Sauvin, Motueka, and Krush hops elevate this refreshing brew, inviting you to rise Above the Clouds. |
| Alchemy 18 |
6.8 |
Alchemy is our chance to experiment with different ingredients and processes in order to further develop our capacity to craft delicious and novel brews. Our previous batch of Alchemy was amongst our favorite IPAs to date. To further our understanding of what made that beer so special, we brewed a nearly identical recipe and used a nearly identical process, but with our house yeast strain instead of the experimental strain from the last batch. We made additional meticulous adjustments throughout the brewing and cellaring process to simulate attributes from its predecessor, resulting in a remarkably similar finished beer. Kept pale and incredibly hazy, Alchemy 18 is generously hopped with our hand selected Citra, New Zealand Motueka, and El Dorado, imparting explosive hop notes of chewy mango candy, passion fruit sorbet, fresh lime juice, and peach tart. Understanding the subtle but present differences between Alchemy 17 and 18 has drastically improved our understanding of yeast's contribution to finished beer flavor and texture. We hope you enjoy this evolution of our NEIPA program as much as we do! |
| Amistades Sin Fronteras |
6.5 |
Amistades Sin Fronteras, or in English, Friendships Without Borders, is a three way collaboration between INBC, Wild Rockies Field Institute, and Native Root Coffee. Wild Rockies Field Institute offers academically rigorous, place-based field courses that develop engaged, informed citizens and strong leaders capable of addressing complex social and environmental issues. Native Root is a specialty coffee producer and exporter based out of the ancestral lands of Cauca, Colombia. This special stout is brewed to specifically complement the quality and flavor profile of Native Root's gently roasted Bourbon Aruzi coffee that underwent a yellow honey anaerobic fermentation process. Amistades Sin Fronteras Coffee stout boasts beautifully complex aromas of chocolate drizzled caramel, toffee crumble, and cinnamon graham cracker, followed by flavors of layers upon layers of juicy caramels, milk chocolate, with subtle complementing floral and sweet fruit notes, finishing with minimal roast to allow the complexity of the coffee beans keep center stage. |
| Casa Azul |
5.4 |
Casa Azul is our creative interpretation of a cream ale that implements forward thinking brewing practices, much like the art of its inspirer, Frida Kahlo. Starting with a high quality, complex, but pale malt base that incorporates a touch of corn, we then decided to dose this batch with a subtle amount of modern hops to create complementing bright citrus fruit and floral notes to accent the light, crisp and refreshing base beer that makes breathes life into a classic style |
| Eras V |
5.4 |
Hoppy beer has entered its lager era. West Coast Pilsner is a contemporary style, based on traditional European Pilsners, and enchanted with a selection of modern, new age hops. A clean, subtly malty base is complemented by a unique and compelling hop profile derived from Rakau, Hallertau Blanc, Motueka, Mosaic, HBC 586, and Nelson Sauvin hops. |
| Fresh Hop Liberator |
6.8 |
Fresh Hop Liberator takes our flagship W.E. Coast IPA and piles on 100 lbs of fresh, wet El Dorado hops from Flathead Valley Hops. This generous addition of fresh locally grown hops adds massive citrus and tropical fruity notes to Liberator that elevates the beer far beyond our expectations. We sense Five Alive citrus juice, apricot sorbet, canned peaches, and tropical fruit medley that transforms our classic Liberator beer into a much more juice forward expression. |
| Hop the Vote |
6.3 |
Each November (and sometimes in between), we the people of these United States are called upon to make our voices heard. We partnered with the civic advocates at Forward Montana and Montana Women Vote to craft this call to action, reminding each of us to exercise our Constitutionally guaranteed right to vote. To build this all-American beer, we start with a blend of American barley, including some grown right here in Montana, to build a rich, malt-forward foundation, which is then complemented by a series of classic and contemporary American hops — Ahtanum, Centennial, Chinook, and Citra — before fermentation with an American ale yeast. Pouring a clear and beautiful light copper, Hop the Vote features the flavors and aromas of classic American craft beer, including grapefruit, citrus zest, and a resinous hop note, backed by fresh baked bread and caramel. If you haven’t submitted your ballot yet, enjoy this beer while researching your candidates and filling in those bubbles. If you've already voted, cheers to you! |
| Horseman, Pass By! |
5.2 |
This traditionally brewed ESB is dedicated to one of the greatest poets of all time: W.B. Yeats. Horseman, Pass By! is brewed with the richest and most flavorful base malt in the world, UK No. 19 Floor Malted Maris Otter, as well as crystal and biscuit malts to create a nuanced and delicious base that sees a tactful dose of UK Golding hops and our house English yeast strain. This beer is incredibly complex, yet balanced, with rich malt and caramel notes balanced by spicy herbal and citrus hop notese. For us, drinking this beer evokes drinking orange oolong tea with toasted crumpets while reading the works of W.B. Yeats. |
| Kaleidoscope |
5.0 |
You’ll be transported to paradise with the tangy and opulent tropical mango flavors, the blend of orange, lemon, tangerine, grapefruit and lime essence and the right amount of delicious Passion Fruit, Orange and Guava. Cymatic Tropical Citrus Punch is sure to be a crowd favorite with yummy tropical notes, a touch of natural sweetness and flavor you would expect from fresh fruit. |
| Long White Cloud |
8.2 |
Aotearoa, the native Māori name for New Zealand, roughly translates to ""Land of the Long White Cloud"". These cloud formations over the islands served as a navigational beacon for Polynesian Navigators. As curious brewers, New Zealand serves as a beacon for inspiration through the hard work and dedication of hops farmers that have been tirelessly cultivating new and exciting varietals for decades. This beer showcases one of the newest and most exciting NZ hop varietals known as Nectaron. Brewed with an incredibly pale and vibrant base, we paired Nectaron with Citra and Citra Spectrum at over 8 lbs per barrel throughout the brewing process to create an ultimate synergy of tropical and exotic hoppy flavors. Aromas of ripe mango flesh, Sauvignon grapes, passionfruit juice, and soft key lime envelop the air, enticing a sip filled with flavors of blissfully tropical mango, passionfruit, nectarine, Sauvignon grape, key lime, and pineapple. Lingering sweet fruit notes are gently swept off the plate, finishing as soft as the beer's name suggests. |
| Lupujuiced Mango Pineapple |
6.5 |
Built from the base of our flagship New England Style IPA Lupujus, a beer that is generously hopped with Strata, Citra, and Simcoe at a whopping 6lbs per barrel, This batch of Lupujuiced kicks the juice dial beyond the capacity of hops by blending in a tasteful amount of real mango and pineapple puree. What you get is a burst of tropical and citrus hoppy flavors that are accentuated, not usurped, by delicious mango and pineapple goodness. |
| Lupujus 7 |
7.0 |
Lupujus 7 is one of our Signature Series of New England Style IPAs and is the first of its style ever brewed in Montana. Honed over the years to produce everything hazy IPA drinkers love: beautifully turbid, super aromatic, with big tropical fruit flavors. At over 6lbs of hops per barrel, this is one of our most heavily hopped beers, but is done so in creative ways to minimize the bitterness of the hops and accentuate their juiciness. Strata, Citra + Mosaic T90/Cryo create overtones of passion fruit and ripe mango atop a soft and full mouthfeel. |
| Lupujus ZERO |
|
Lupujus 0 marks a monumental milestone for Imagine Nation Brewing Company. Conceived over two years ago, we have been quietly dedicating countless hours toward researching and trialing different brewing processes and recipes to finally share with you a house-made non-alcoholic brew that lives up our expectations for what we can happily (and finally) introduce as Lupujus 0! We felt that in order to be worthy of the Lupujus title, Lupujus 0 needed to express the same hoppy onslaught of its bigger siblings, so we threw restraint to the wayside and used 3 lbs per barrel of the same Citra, Mosaic, and Strata hops that are in the rest the Lupujus series. What we taste is a bright and assertive hop profile with big notes of fresh squeezed citrus, melon, and a dank pine character that has a zippy and refreshing finish. We encourage you to enjoy this lovely non-alcoholic brew as you would with any of our other offerings: amongst the people and things that bring you joy! |
| Mountain Top |
|
An approachable non-alcoholic pale, Mountain Top is crafted with a complex malt base of barley, wheat, and rye, and gentle hopping of our favorite American varietals. Nostalgic flavors and aromas of fruity breakfast cereals, blueberry, honey, graham cracker, and light citrus are complimented by an incredibly smooth and quenching finish. Mountain Top is the perfect brew for all occasions, whether you’re climbing the mountain or just taking in the views. |
| Pattern That Connects |
7.1 |
Pattern That Connects is intended to be a sort of sibling to Supreme NEIPA, one of our favorite beers. The difference lies in the hops and yeast that we used; Mosaic T90/Cryo, Idaho 7, and El Dorado. Our hand selected Mosaic contributes tropical, dank, and berry notes that pairs wonderfully with the saturated fruit punch notes of El Dorado. This beer is the epitome of a mixed fruit bowl, showcasing Mangos, berries, fruit gummy snacks, pineapple, and a hint of resinous pine to balance everything out. |
| Saideira |
4.5 |
Saideira Brazilian Lager is our equivalent to sunshine in a glass. Brewed with German Pilsner malt, a touch of rice, and hopped with Saaz and New Zealand Motueka, this beer is then cold conditioned for over 3 months to make it especially crisp and refreshing. Marrying old world with new world, we get a light, crispy wafer maltyness accompanied by noble floral and zippy lime notes from the hops. It is our dream beer to pair with a Brazilian beach, or sip with friends on the riverfront patio overlooking the Clark Fork. |

In 2025, the Missoula Art Museum celebrates 50 years of enriching our community with contemporary art. Since 1975, MAM has grown from humble beginnings to a nationally celebrated institution, showcasing acclaimed artists, supporting emerging talent, and championing contemporary Indigenous art. With a focus on Montana and the American West, MAM remains dedicated to accessibility with free admission and free expression. To celebrate their 50 years, MAM invited us to brew a celebrative Golden Ale, made with the finest malts from around the world and gently hopped with classic American varietals to impart an incredibly effervescent, smooth and crisp drinking experience with notes of toasted parisian bread, crispy wheat chips, and a delicate touch of floral and citrus hop tones. Solid Gold is best enjoyed while contemplating art, connecting with each other in shared spaces, and feeling inspired. Here's to another 50 years of the Missoula Art Museum! |

| Sum Of Light |
4.5 |
This beautifully radiant beer boasts a powerhouse ensemble of New Zealand hops atop our lightest and palest, yet still juicy base. Utilizing generous amounts of Nelson Sauvin, Motueka, and the new Nectaron hop, we sense an eclectic and incredibly compelling palate of exotic flavors and aromas that highlights why these hops are so sought after. Sum Of Light pours an opaque yellow, with an eruption of passion fruit, lime, pineapple, peach, and gooseberry notes - much akin to the fruity profile of Sauvignon Blanc wine from the same region the hops were grown. |
| Supreme |
7.0 |
Finding a beer worth dedicating to the late Ruth Bader Ginsburg felt impossible. After all, a beer will never parallel the legacy and achievements of the notorious RBG. However, we knew we had to put our best foot forward in crafting a beer for people to enjoy when they contemplate her contributions toward human rights and beyond. I think the closest we've ever felt to winning the lottery came when we finally stumbled into the recipe and process that felt worthy of putting in the can. Supreme is brewed with a wheat and oat heavy grist for a pale hazy appearance and luscious texture before seeing over 6 lbs per barrel of hops throughout the brewing process. This batch debuts our particularly intense hand selected Citra and Citra Cryo, while mindfully blending in our other favorite American varieties, Idaho 7 and El Dorado. We feel like we sufficiently blew the lid off of this brew with a full spectrum of hop flavors and aromas, ranging from juicy peach, canned pineapple, ripe mango smoothie, orange marmalade, and a general hoppy dankness that congruently bridge flavor and aroma, with an intensity that is piquing, but not quite overwhelming. We feel like this beer is a true hop-head's dream, and although it's just a beer, worthy of the heroine on the can. |
| Together |
6.5 |
For the last 5 years, we've teamed up with the beloved Missoula non-profit, Soft Landing Missoula, to brew a community collaboration beer as the official beer of international welcoming week for refugees. This year's batch is composed of our tried and true NEIPA malt base and then 5lbs per barrel of hand selected Mosaic, Simcoe, and Nelson Sauvin hops. Pouring a deeply hazy golden-orange, we sense big tropical flavors of funky orange, gooseberry, and papaya with a dank and resinous finish. Cheers to Soft Landing Missoula and all of the hard work they do to make Missoula a welcoming place for all! |
| Warp Speed |
7.1 |
Warp Speed is a thoroughly kettle and dry-hopped West Coast IPA, utilizing modern varietals to give it a fresh and intriguing profile. Built atop a simple base of American Pilsner malt, the massive 6 lbs per barrel hop additions are allowed to take center stage. Using multiple forms of Citra, Simcoe, and Mosaic, we sense a complex array of quintessential West Coast IPA flavors and aromas including navel orange, mango, berry, grapefruit, cannabis, and pine. Warp Speed boasts huge flavor with a lovely resinous hoppy kick, finishing dry and firmly bitter to compel the next sip. |
| Whole Hearted Fruited Gose |
5.0 |
Whole Hearted is our ongoing series of fruited kettle soured goses. This batch was blended with 35 pounds per barrel of a sweet and zesty combination of strawberry, key lime, and cara cara orange, with zippy acidity from our kettle souring process and complemented by a touch of sea salt to add a refreshing finish. Pouring this beer reveals a fluorescent pink-orange color and beautifully complex fruit aromas with a quenching finish. |
