Year Round
Beer Name | ABV | Description |
---|---|---|
10° Plato | 4.0 | Inspired by one of the lightest commercially available 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. |
60 | 6.0 | 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! |
Boxing Underwater | 7.2 | Boxing Underwater was our first foray into the eclectic Cashmere hop. Known for its potent citrus and melon character, we found that it also brings forth a dank and tropical accent when paired with other modern hop varietals. Starting with locally malted 2-row and a wheat heavy mash, this beer is a beautiful golden-yellow hue with a soft texture. At 5 lbs per barrel of Cashmere, Idaho 7, and Mosaic T90/Cryo, we detect loads of lemon-lime juice, sweet green melon, and a creamy, tropical bouquet with funky papaya as the centerpiece. |
Crowned Serpent | 14.0 | |
Double Liminal Space: All Citra | 8.5 | Liminal Space is our favorite series of beers, as it allows us to explore and enjoy the potential of single hop varieties. This particular batch, however, marks a monumental milestone for us in that it is our first beer hopped entirely with our hand selected Citra hops from Coleman Agriculture in Oregon and Wyckoff Farms in Washington. We are hugely honored to be able to participate in hop selection, as it is typically only offered to much larger breweries that utilize far more hops than we do, and is a way for us to further distinguish our beers, as we get to have more creative control over how our hops present themselves in the glass. Double Liminal Space is the perfect platform to showcase the potential of our specific and unique Citra, as the robust ABV helps hit the sweet spot of hop saturation and sweetness that delivers the juiciest expression of the hop while maintaining a drinkable balance. Utilizing 8 lbs per barrel of Citra T90, Citra Cryo, Citra Spectrum, Citra CO2 extract, and Citra Dynaboost, this beer is erupting with the full spectrum of juicy and tropical flavors. Double Liminal pours into the glass a radiant and milky pale yellow, expressing notes of ripe mango, fresh navel orange juice, lime sorbet, and passion fruit candy with an underpinning soft dankness. Citra has always been our number one hop and it's an honor to be able to deliver it to you in a way that is uniquely our own! |
Eras V | 5.0 | 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. |
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 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! | |
Merging Waters | 5.5 | Merging Waters is the first beer ever brewed at Imagine Nation Brewing, and one of very few beers that ever earned flagship status. Brewed to celebrate the confluence of rivers that unite us, this beer is a smooth, malt forward golden ale brewed with a variety of the highest quality malted barleys we can get our hands on. Grapenut cereal, honeyed toast, and golden-brown biscuit lead the palate with subtle floral, citrus and fruity notes from European noble hops and classic American varietals. Elegant yet simple, Merging waters is best enjoyed with good company in shared spaces. |
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. | |
2024 Patience & Promise Rye Whiskey Barrel Aged Imperial Stout (13%) | 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. | |
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. |
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. |
Wolf Hearted | 6.7 | We teamed up with Wild Earth Guardians again for our annual Wolf Hearted NEIPA collaboration, a beer dedicated to raising awareness of the decline in wolf populations as a result of losing their protection under the Endangered Species Act. Wolf Hearted was brewed with a high quality English base malt and generous amounts of oats and wheat, then hopped with 6 lbs per barrel with New Zealand Nelson Sauvin, New Zealand Motueka, and our hand selected Citra Cryo. Wolf Hearted boasts a mélange of exotic fruit flavors and aromas, including ripe melon, star fruit, lychee, and black lime, with an incredibly creamy and full bodied finish. |
Zeitgeist | 6.0 | Zeitgeist is our house fruited sour. It's brewed with lactose for full body, kettle soured, and then conditioned on over 40lbs per barrel with real fruit puree. Each time we brew it, we use a different fruit combination. This time, we blended in a delightful blend of pomegranate, blueberry, and plum. Pouring an enticing purple into the glass, its flavors are equally compelling, with a soft acidity and incredibly smooth finish. |
