India Pale Ale

6.6% ABV

A New Jersey classic, Head High is a 6.6% American-style IPA and our flagship beer. Kane has been brewing Head High every day, since day one. Head High is all about the hops; five kinds for those keeping count. The result of this hoppy goodness is a noticeable grapefruit flavor with aromas of citrus, tropical fruits, and pine with a straw color, foamy head, and crisp flavor. This wave rolls in all day, every day, all year round.

Sneakbox

Pale Ale

Sneakbox is our 5.4% American Pale Ale.

7.2% ABV

Boardwalk Slice, our 7.2% IPA, features a proprietary hop with a unique name grown exclusively by our friends at Segal Hop Ranch in Yakima Valley.

Heirloom | Blend N°2

Saison

Heirloom | Blend N°2 is our World Beer Cup gold medal winning Table Saison. This beer is our interpretation of the lower ABV saison style that was suitable for drinking throughout the day and often served to the whole family with a meal. Heirloom | Blend N°2 is brewed with a blend of pilsner malt, chitted barley and malted wheat. We hop it with both aged and fresh noble hops before fermenting it in oak with our favorite saison yeast and our local flora. After aging for several months in oak, we blended in a small portion of well-aged spontaneously fermented beer. The mingling of the saison and spontaneously fermented beer through the process of bottle conditioning should provide for a remarkably complex beer to drink fresh or continue aging.
