NEW RELEASES

GS302 - Golden Sour, 7%
Super light and bright with a mineralistic quality reminiscent of a dry white wine.  A strong farmhouse aroma rounds out this barrel aged golden sour.
LIMITED BOTTLE RELEASE

IPA

Graver Grit - Rye IPA, 6.4% SPONSORED BY GRAVER TECHNOLOGIES
A rare variety of IPA hits the menu.  Malty and robust with a distinctive rye and caramel character balanced by a generous addition of resinous Pacific Northwest hops.  Reminiscent of the early days of craft beer.  Named by our Winter Warmer 5K sponsor Graver Technologies! 

Million Dollar Mullet - Triple IPA, 11.0%
When your hair has you feeling like a million bucks with zero cares in the world, a very un-humble triple IPA may be in order.  Just like the best hair styles, this one is heavy handed with the outrageous accents.  ‘Mullet’ is loaded of hops and delivers a pillowy palette of fresh-squeezed peaches and peak-ripeness grapefruit.   And of course, a subtle boozy character reminds us that this is a Triple IPA with a capital “T”

Newark State of Mind - IPA, 6.0%
Change is inexorable. After quite a few test batches over the past 6 months, we arrived at a new and more approachable ‘Newark’ with a dialed back the ABV but with the same remarkably clean malt character, lingering bitterness, and piercing medley of Pacific Northwest hops.

Table Juicy - Session IPA, 4.5%
Crisp, light, and hoppy - this table IPA strikes just the right notes with fluffy cereal combining with soft pine and citrus. Low ABV and bitterness to accentuate the juiciness.

GOLDEN ALES & LAGERS

Refined Cheering - Pub Beer, 3.6%
Our take on the everyday pub ale.  Easy drinking, light, and golden.  The slight citrus hop character mingles pleasantly with the cracker-like maltiness and creamy mouthfeel.  Pairs well with warm fall afternoons and copious leaf raking.

Arch Lite - Pale Lager, 4.6%
A crisp & lean lager for the sophisticated craft beer enthusiast. Defined by a dry and uncomplicated smoothness.

DARK(er) ALES & LAGERS

Buzz Beer - Ordinary Bitter, 4% SPONSORED BY HOFFMAN EXTERMINATING CO.
The quintessential English low ABV ale with a beautiful copper hue.  Toasty notes of biscuits are complemented by a medley of earthy & zesty flavors arising from the traditional English hops.  Named by our Winter Warmer 5K sponsor Hoffman Exterminating Co.! 

Even the Sun Goes Down - Oatmeal Stout, 8.0%
Our first oatmeal stout in a long, long time.  Some say it’s been too long, and we tend to agree.  This silky smooth stout is accented with lightly roasted malts yielding a mellow dark chocolate and coffee character.  Low bitterness but a bit heavy on the ABV, which lines up with what we think a good late-autumn stout should aspire to be.  Pairs well with campfires, friendly banter, and everything on your Thanksgiving table (especially the desserts).

Mass Balance - Sticke Alt, 7.0%
Everything that an altbier is, but way more assertive and self-assured (like an older sibling).  This ruby-hued ale has strong malt character with toffee notes and with a spicy medley of noble hops.

The Blue Wrapper - Barrel-Aged Imperial Stout, 11.8%
Our second collaboration with the Melanated Mash Makers (and the second of our 5 for 5 collabs we are doing for the Autumn Arch 5th anniversary). Collectively, we wanted to make an imperial stout amalgamated with an almond joy bar…and we think we got there. Soft nudges of roasted almonds, silky coconut, and dark roast coffee waft from the surface of this thick and deeply rich stout. Aged in 5 year Elk bourbon barrels (and you won’t miss this particular feature).

SOURs & WILD ALES

Rad Machinations - Dark Sour, 6.5%
Every once in a while, a superb sour emerges from the barrel program.  This is one of them.  Aromas of sage and barnyard funk mingle over a deep ruby red body.  Medium tartness, maximum elegance.

High Viscosity! Pacific Cooler - Sour, 6.4%
A concoction of Prickly Pear, Pineapple, Orange, and Black Currant artfully blended together to recreate the juice pouch classic. This pink hued sour is like a soft and bountiful bouquet of pears and pineapple spritzer.  We get a medley of pineapple popsicles, morning OJ, and hints of pear which all come together in a nostalgic showcase of a 90s summer afternoon.

Color of Your Energy - Amber Sour, 6.5%
Aromas of barnyard funk, cherry pie, and leather. Tart up front with a nice bready sweetness on the back end. Bright flavors of tart cherries, sweet bread, and a funk reminiscent of bleu cheese.

Watermelon Cherry - Tart Saison, 7.1%
A lovingly blended barrel aged sour. We took a young Foeder sour aged on a pairing of sweet cherry and watermelon for 4 months, and blended it with a barrel that had been conditioned for 14 months on mango and pomegranate. This one ended up as a beautiful bouquet of herbal, barnyard funk, watermelon rind, and tart berries. Thirst-quenching yet cheek-puckering. Notes of sour candied berries and fresh pressed watermelon juice.

What beers do you make and do any of them come in cans?
We boldly brew all styles of beer, but we are particularly fond of American IPAs, sour beer, and obscure German lagers. Check out what we have in cans and bottles.

Are dogs welcome?
Yes, well-behaved dogs are welcome inside the tasting room and at our outdoor seating. However, no dogs are allowed to sit at the bar for safety reasons. Note: we have asked aggressive/loud dogs to leave in the past, so please know your dog’s behavior around other dogs, people, and noise before dropping in.

Can I get your beer anywhere in Delaware?
Nope. Just the Autumn Arch tasting room and occasionally The Delaware Growler and a couple of rad craft beer bars.

Are you a sour beer brewery only?
We serve sour beers (on purpose), but we do not exclusively serve sour beer. We love a crisp IPA just as much as you. Check out our delightfully diverse lineup of beers.

Can I purchase growlers to go?
No, we are not stocking glass growlers at this time; however, we have loads of the much more dynamic and versatile crowler (32 oz can format). So no need to fret when you show up to the brewery empty handed.

Can I get my own growler filled (Because I have 30 of them)?
We don’t discriminate on growler brand, so go ahead and bring your Pliny the Elder, 1st Edition 64oz growler. We’ll bask in the splendor together. Just make sure your growler has the appropriate warning label. #governmentrules

Do you have food?
We often have food trucks on premises. We update the food schedule on our website and social media feed weekly.

Is it easy to park?
Hell yes. Choose from the myriad spots at the front, back, and sides of our 5400 sqft warehouse.

Do you sell kegs for backyard BBQs, weddings, and awesome basement bars?
Yes we do! Send an email over to hello@autumnarch.com and we can get you set up.

Can I have a private event there?
Sure can. All the details on reserving the space are here.
