Gilman Brewing - Berkeley 912 Gilman St
Beer Menu
4-Packs
- 4-Pack Banjo Cat West Coast DIPA$21.99
Who says cats can’t play banjo?! Not us! We love music and beer…and the combination of both. As a result we have seen some strange stuff here at the Shop over the years… this might not even be the strangest thing we have seen. A deceptively light and crisp body, purposely unbalanced to showcase 7 lbs per barrel of juicy and tropical hops, this double features Mosaic, Simcoe and El Dorado. Don’t let the ABV fool you or you might end up trying to teach your cat how to play banjo too… ABV 8.5%
- 4-Pack Black Lager$17.99
Our version of a traditional Black Lager or Schwarzbier. The West Berkeley Black Lager gains its lovely dark color and hints of toasty malt and chocolate from the finest German roasted barley in the realm. Its light, crisp, refreshing finish comes from German Pilsner malt and a long luxurious six-week lagering process using a traditional bottom-fermenting German lager yeast strain. It’s light, it’s dark, it’s smooth, it’s complex, and yet refreshingly simple. Perhaps otherworldly. Perfect for long dark Bay Area nights. ABV 5.2%
- 4-Pack Cats In Space$20.99
Cats in space. Yep. We love kitties. And space. And Beer. Featuring a Maris Otter and flaked oat malt bill for radical smoothness and 7lb/bbl of some super fresh Citra, Cascade and Simcoe hops. Juicy, fruity, dank… somehow strangely smooth yet still crisp…?It’s a beer,… Drink It RIGHT MEOW while it's still nice and fresh please. ABV 5.7%
- 4-Pack Dashboard Jesus$20.99
Hazy IPA with heavenly notes of citrus and communion wafers. (JK it's just a great beer)
- 4-Pack Green Eyed Devil$16.99
Classic, refreshing Lager. Smooth, light, crisp. Our homage to the red-white-and-blue beers that helped build this brewery ABV 5%
- 4-Pack Missouri Lean$26.99
- 4-Pack Pineapple Jardin$19.99
Le Jardin with a half ton of freshly pureed pineapple. The tangy, tart pineapple pairs nicely with the crisp, citrusy, malty notes of the sour. ABV 6%
- 4-Pack Punxsutawney Phil$20.99
It all started with an innocent cough and suddenly, twelve more weeks of winter… No more Gilman, no more friends… Just a TP shortage and some old freezer food. Even though you can’t join us at the shop, let us help facilitate a little day-drinking for y ‘all; this tasty hazy features a ton of that nastay Southern Hemisphere Motueka and its Northern Hemisphere friend Mosaic. Don’t worry, we kept them six feet apart during the brewing process… Hopefully Phil can help to brighten your day… 🙂 Stay positive. And wash your damn hands. ABV 6.5%
- 4-Pack Push Rod Porter$17.99
- 4-Pack Quarter Panel$20.99
A modern West Coast style IPA. Light body, aggressive bittering. Massive tropical/dank/citrus aroma and flavors from huge late additions of Amarillo, Simcoe, and Mosaic hops. ABV 6.5%
- 4-Pack Solamente Uno$17.99
Our Amber Mexican Style Lager is crisp and malty with a hint of Rye spice and a slight floral aroma from a light dry hop. This puppy drinks easy. Perfect for a relaxed night in by yourself, sure throw on those comfy sweatpants, who cares? Self-care is the name of the game, honey. Don’t stress yourself out. Crack open a cold beer, order some delivery, and binge watch your favorite show. You’ve earned it. ABV 5.3%
- 4-Pack West Berkeley Pale Ale$20.99
Traditional American Pale Ale. A crispy pale malt backbone keeps things smooth while a massive double dry hop addition of classic Cryo-Cascade and Centennial hops destroy your tastebuds and your ability to ever look at a pale ale the same way again. ABV 5.7%
- 4-Pack West Berkeley Pilsner$17.99
A classic, traditional German Pilsner, no corners cut. With a nod to our German friends just down the street producing a fantastic lagerbier here in Berkeley. Soft water, German Pilsner malt, a big dose of Saaz and Tettnanger hops…lagered bright for over six weeks to allow for that classic malty smoothness to develop…. Crisp malt notes perfectly balanced against moderate, firm bitterness. Spicy and floral hop notes with a smooth refreshing finish…. What more could you want in a beer? ABV 4.9%
- 4-Pack Bad Tattoo$20.99
- Blackberry Hibou$17.99
22oz Bottles
- 5W30 Russian Imperial Stout$8.00
Bourbon barrel-aged for one year at time of bottling. A monster imperial stout with a thick, creamy, inky black body and a brown creamy head. Rich aromas of vanilla, chocolate, coffee, toffee, bourbon, and dark roasted malt. Luxurious flavors of bittersweet chocolate, toffee, and round roasted malt; subtle notes of vanilla, oak, tannins, and bourbon from twelve months in bourbon barrels round it out for a silky smooth finish… ABV 9.3%
- Glorious Excess Belgian Quad$8.00
Bourbon barrel aged for one year and released every February during SF Beer Week. This beer is the pinnacle of excess. Tons of malt and smooth dark Belgian candi syrup produce a viscous, deep copper beer with a thick creamy head. Aromas of toasted malt, oak, caramel, subtle spice and bourbon. Medium, rich body balances flavors of rich malt/cracker, smooth toasted caramel and subtle vanilla provide a smooth counterbalance for the warming notes of alcohol/bourbon. Keep it smooth…. ABV 11%
- Jardin Noire Dark Sour$8.00
This mixed fermentation dark sour started as a dark saison base then was allowed to age in a mix of red and white wine oak barrels for four years with our house mixed culture: multiple Brett, Lacto, and Pedio strains with a couple different wild farm house yeasts… Complex is the only way to describe it. Rich vinous notes intermingle with roasted malt and the whole package is carried by an assertive mix or fragrant, lingering tartness… This will age well for years to come or share it with a friend now! ABV 7%
