The Craft Pour: Hybrids & Specialties
Style-benders. Rule-breakers. Big pours done right.
Not every great beer fits in a box. The Craft Pour dives into those in-between brews that blend technique, tradition, and a bit of attitude. Inside, you’ll get a quick breakdown of what makes hybrid and specialty beers stand out—from warm-fermented lagers to big, boozy sippers that age like a good story. We’re talking style-bending, malt-forward, full-flavor brews you can still pull off with extract.
This guide includes two standout recipes built for depth and drinkability:
Cold Crest Kölsch – Clean, crisp, and smooth-drinking with just enough fruitiness to keep it interesting.
Deep Cut Barleywine – Bold, high-ABV, and rich with layered malt complexity. Brew it now, thank yourself later.
Plus, a built-in FAQ + troubleshooting section to help you navigate fermentation quirks, conditioning timelines, and getting the most out of these not-so-typical brews.
If you're ready to level up from the basics and try something with a little more character, this is your pour.
