A Crunchy Peach

A Crunchy Peach

Peach Kettle Sour w/ Cinnamon

5.0%

ABV

6

IBU

What does peach, cinnamon, and lactose combined in a kettle sour taste like? Like biting into a crunchy peach cobbler. The lactose (aka milk sugar) with the peach and cinnamon balance out the sourness of the beer to create a delicious experience for your tastebuds.

Fun Fact:

Although Georgia is the most well known for peaches, it's actually ranked 3rd for largest quantity of peaches grown. California grows more peaches than any other state in the US followed by the Palmetto State, South Carolina!

Barrel-Aged Shattered Seas

BA Saison

6%

ABV

24

IBU

Our head brewer (Christopher) has been working hard over the years to create a delicious Saison that has complexity and depth but is easy drinking. He feels that he is nailed it with this one! This beer was then aged in Cab Sauv barrels to give it an extra something.

Fun Fact:

Peppercorns are perfect for complementing and enhancing the phenols produced by many Belgian yeast strains. Saisons are most commonly associated with peppercorns, given the natural spicy, peppery character of the yeast.

Bella's Helles

Bella's Helles

Munich Helles

5.5%

ABV

17

IBU

Our first lager on draft! A crisp, smooth, lager with a malt-forward profile from the pilsner malt. We let it lager for 6 weeks in the fermenters before putting it on draft. This inviting, refreshing beer is perfect for a hot, Charleston summer day and is named after our late husky, Bella.

Fun Fact:

Lager yeast is known as a 'bottom-fermentation' yeast and enjoys fermenting at lower temperatures for longer periods of time than an ale yeast.

Bottom Time

Bottom Time

German Pilsner

5.4%

ABV

28

IBU

The core of this beer is our house lager strain. The grain bill is simple (as it should be), mostly pilsner malt with a touch a Victory. To round everything out we bittered with Magnum and added late additions of Hallertauer Mittlefrueh. Our cleanest, crispiest, most easy drinking beer yet!

Fun Fact:

Bottom time for a dive is the calculated from the start of descent to the start of ascent. Many divers will track their total bottom time over the course of all of their dives.

Butter Go Nuts

Butter Go Nuts

Peanut Butter Porter

7.1%

ABV

68

IBU

Our peanut butter porter is full of peanut butter powder and cocoa nibs added during the boil and in secondary to give it a nice resemblance to a Reese Cup. If you like a punch of peanut butter to the nose, we recommend getting the beer served with regular beer gas. If you like your PB creamy, try it on nitro!

Fun Fact:

Archibutyrophobia (pronounced A'-ra-kid-bu-ti-ro-pho-bi-a) is the fear of getting peanut butter stuck to the roof of your mouth.

Cenotes

Cenotes

Mexican Lager

6.4%

ABV

20

IBU

Smooth and easy to drink on a hot summer day. The sweetness from the flaked corn and a heavy dose of Vienna will pull through in our version of a Mexican lager but is balanced by the Zeus and Motueka hops, which gives a little citrus punch. The southern German lager yeast lets this one finish out clean and crisp. This beer will pair nicely with guacamole, tacos, or your personal favorite Mexican dish.

Fun Fact:

Cenotes are natural pits, or sinkholes, resulting from the collapse of limestone bedrock that exposes groundwater underneath. The Yucatán Peninsula of Mexico is home to thousands of cenotes.

Depth Dweller

Depth Dweller

12%

ABV

70

IBU

Dive into the ocean depths with Depth Dweller, a bourbon barrel-aged imperial stout that embodies the essence of time and craft. Meticulously aged for over a year and a half in barrels from High Wire Distillery, this rich and robust stout is a symphony of flavors. Notes of dark chocolate, roasted coffee, and caramel intertwine with the warm embrace of bourbon, oak, and a hint of vanilla from the barrel. Bold yet velvety smooth, Depth Dweller invites you to explore its layers with every sip—a true masterpiece for the adventurous palate.

Fun Fact:

Drift Dive

Citra IPA

5.8%

ABV

63

IBU

A similar recipe we brewed for our wedding beer, this Citra IPA uses Nugget, Mosaic and, of course, Citra hops! A clean, crisp, West Coast IPA if that’s what you’re craving.

Fun Fact:

Drift diving is a type of scuba diving where the diver is transported by the water movement caused by the tide, an ocean current or in a river.

Duke It Out

Duke It Out

IPA

7.3%

ABV

67

IBU

A solid IPA brewed with 100% Centennial hops. This was a beer we did early on in our homebrewing days and we are excited to debut it on the professional level.

Fun Fact:

Centennial Hops was first created in 1974 and is sometimes referred to as a Super Cascade

Hive Another

Honey Cream Ale

6.0%

ABV

13

IBU

We started homebrewing in Wisconsin so naturally we like our cream ales with a little more ABV than you might be used to. (Google “Wisconsin Cream Ale” if you aren’t sure what we are referencing). We rounded out this beer with 30 lbs of honey but don’t think you are about to drink a glass full of sweet honey nectar. Honey is a fermentable sugar so the yeast already ate most of it before it could get to your glass. What they left behind is pretty tasty though!

Fun Fact:

Honey never spoils! When stored in an airtight container, honey can have an eternal shelf-life.

Mola Mola

Mola Mola

Juicy IPA

5.9%

ABV

50

IBU

Our Mola Mola (aka Sunfish) is a juicy, hazy IPA we know you’ll enjoy. We used Warrior, Citra, Amarillo, and Mosaic hops combined with London Fog yeast. Even if you traditionally don’t enjoy juicy/New England IPAs, we encourage you to give this one a try. It has the right amount of bitterness and juiciness to satisfy every type of IPA drinker.

Fun Fact:

Female Mola Mola fish can produce as many as 300 million eggs at a time, more than any other known vertebrate.

Shelly Beach

Shelly Beach

Blonde Ale

5.4%

ABV

18

IBU

Our first open water dive as certified scuba divers was at Shelly Beach in Sydney, Australia. It seemed only fitting to name the first beer we put on tap at Indigo Reef after that first dive. Just like our shore dive at Shelly Beach got us hooked on scuba diving, we think this blonde ale will get you hooked on us. The Shelly Beach Blonde Ale is easy to drink making it the perfect beer for a hot day or as a gateway into craft beer if you're new to the scene.

Fun Fact:

Shelly beach is one of only 2 west facing ocean beaches on the east coast of Australia.

Snookfish

Snookfish

Red Ale

5.2%

ABV

25

IBU

Snookfish is a delightful and richly hued beer that offers a captivating blend of flavors and aromas. With a deep crimson color that mirrors its robust malt profile, this ale greets the senses with a toasty, caramelized sweetness and a hint of roasted nuts on the nose. The first sip reveals a harmonious balance of caramel and biscuit maltiness, complemented by a subtle hop bitterness that imparts a crisp finish, leaving a lingering, pleasant malt sweetness on the palate. Snookfish is a perfect companion for those seeking a well-rounded, medium-bodied beer that delivers both character and drinkability in every pour.

7.5%

ABV

34

IBU

Embrace the warmth of the season with our Brandy Barrel-Aged Winter Lager, a festive brew that brings depth and cheer to chilly nights. This rich, malty lager is aged to perfection in brandy barrels, infusing it with notes of dried fruit, toasted oak, and a whisper of warming spice. The smooth, caramel backbone of the lager harmonizes beautifully with the delicate brandy sweetness, creating a balanced and luxurious drinking experience. Perfect for fireside moments or holiday celebrations, this winter lager is a toast to the cozy comforts of the season.

Fun Fact:

Surface Interval

Surface Interval

Czech Pilsner

6%

ABV

34

IBU

Surface Interval is a Czech Pilsner that uses Southern German Lager yeast and 100% Czech Saaz hops. The hops will give the beer a slight spicy character, which is a nice complement to the clean finishing yeast. Just like a diver's surface interval between dives, this beer is relaxing, chill, and rejuvenating.

Fun Fact:

A surface interval is the time a diver spends at the surface in between dives. The time allows nitrogen accumulated during the dive to be released from the body and will reduce the risk of decompression sickness, or "the bends".

Wake Up Call

Wake Up Call

Coffee Blonde Ale

5.3%

ABV

18

IBU

Before coffee became widely available, beer was the popular breakfast drink of choice. We love both types of beverages so we decided to combine the two. Wake Up Call is our Shelly Beach Blonde Ale with coffee grounds from Charleston Coffee Roasters. We think it's the perfect brunch beer but really it can be enjoyed at any time of the day.

Fun Fact:

Coffee beans are only called 'beans' because of the resemblance - they’re actually berries.
