Bear Bottom Blonde
This blonde ale is bright, clean and crisp with lager characteristics. A soft malty sweetness is balanced by American Perle hops with moderate earthy and noble-type hop flavor. This pseudo-lager (ale fermented at lager temperatures) is a gentle transition for domestic beer drinkers into the booming world of craft beer.

Hat Trick Hop IPA
Nearly four pounds of Magnum, Simcoe, and Cascade hops per barrel form intense citrus and pine flavor with notes of tropical fruit. Back to back Gold Medal IPA at the Calgary International Brewfest and is our local’s go-to pint preference. Available in 16oz cans throughout Western Montana.

Rye Sally Rye IPA
Citra, Chinook, and Simcoe- music to a hop lover’s ear. With more than 20 percent flaked rye and heavy use of Citra hops, this Rye IPA has a grapefruit aroma with spice and caramel maltiness blended with big hop flavor. Finishes dry with lingering rustic rye spiciness. Refreshing and balanced, this is our brewer’s go-to shift beer.

Laser Wolf Jalapeno Blonde Ale
Pew! Pew! Pew! – Is what your taste buds will be saying when you try this delicious jalapeño golden ale! Laser Wolf Jalapeño Golden Ale will zap your taste buds to another dimension. This golden ale is one easy-drinking beer. You could say its bark is worse than its bite, with a huge jalapeño flavor and aroma, and very little spice. It pairs well with everything, but we like it with burgers, tacos, and pizza.

Visit with the New Owner Tim & The Master Brewer, Swag Give Aways, & Crafted Flight:

Merging Waters
Merging Waters is the first beer ever brewed at Imagine Nation Brewing, and one of very few beers that ever earned flagship status. Brewed to celebrate the confluence of rivers that unite us, this beer is a smooth, malt forward golden ale brewed with a variety of the highest quality malted barleys we can get our hands on. Grapenut cereal, honeyed toast, and golden-brown biscuit lead the palate with subtle floral, citrus and fruity notes from European noble hops and classic American varietals. Elegant yet simple, Merging waters is best enjoyed with good company in shared spaces.

Trail Angle Helles Lager
A trail angel is someone who cares for others in the outdoors without expectation of any return. We thought this summed up the work of the Rocky Mountaineers and their ongoing efforts to support people to thrive in mountain environments. Brewed with the highest quality German Malts and fresh Hallertau Mittelfruh hops, this beer then undergoes a steady and cool fermentation before lagering for over 6 weeks. What results is an incredibly clean, refreshing, and flavorful beer that is true to style, imparting rich bready malt notes and a gentle noble hop character. Join the mountaineers, grab a four pack, and, most importantly, find ways to be trail angels for each other.

Fresh Hop Freedom Fighter IPA
Using the classic West Coast Freedom Fighter base, we picked up and hopped this batch with 100 lbs of local Montana fresh Cascade hops from our friends at Flathead Valley Hops in Kalispell. Finished off with Centennial, Simcoe, and a touch of Mosaic, Fresh Hop Freedom Fighter delivers notes of pine, soft lemon, sweet grapefruit, herbaceous dankness, and lovely floral notes with a compelling fresh hop bite that harkens to time spent in the middle of a hop field.

Vague Shadows Dark Czech Lager
Vague Shadows is brewed with great intent and with the most authentic ingredients possible. The recipe utilizes heirloom, floor malted Bohemian dark malt that is grown and processed in Czech republic, with additional floor malted specialty malts and dark malts to create the base for this historically accurate brew. It is then generously hopped with Czech Saaz throughout the boil to accentuate and balance the earthy and roasty malt profile. Vague Shadows is fermented cool and slow, and given 8 weeks of cold conditioning to allow the beer to mature into a smooth, cohesive interpretation of the classic style that boasts intense malty flavors of chocolate, creamy espresso, and toasted bread, with a pleasant, earthy accent.
