BIG RIG GOLD
Our flagship beer is a refreshing Golden brew that uses a blend of the finest Canadian and German malts giving it a smooth mild body that balances the crisp, pleasant German hop finish. The hops used in this local brew are soon to be grown at our very own hop yard at the Phillips farm in Manotick.
STATS - 5% alc. vol. - O.G. 1.048 - 20 IBU - 2.5 Lovibond
PAIRS BEST WITH - PIZZA, HEAT, THE HOCKEY GAME
BIG RIG RIDEAU RED
The light red and amber coloring of this beer is a result of using special crystalized barley. This smooth style starts off with a slightly sweet mellow mouth feel and finishes up with a clean finish. Using fresh floral hops at the start of the boil allows the complex subtle maltiness to shine. A classic!
STATS - 5.2% alc. vol. - O.G. 1.050 - 18 IBU - 10 Lovibond
PAIRS BEST WITH - SEAFOOD, CHICKEN, PATIO
BIG RIG BYWARD BROWN
This Nut Brown has the aroma of lightly roasted coffee and chocolate with the color of toasted hazelnuts. Although this brew has a rich darker color it is surprisingly mild and smooth in flavor, making it a refreshing pint. This beer has been called a gateway brew to the dark side.
STATS - 5.2% alc. vol. - O.G. 1.050 - 22 IBU - 18 Lovibond

BIG RIG INDIA PALE ALE
This North American IPA is generously hopped, giving it lively citrus and grapefruit aroma and flavor that is layered with a maltiness derived from the careful selection of specialty malts and Canadian Barley. This brew is sure to satisfy those who love the hop!

BIG RIG STUD STOUT
With a mocha colored head this bold and beautiful stout has layers of chocolate and roasted coffee like barley that give it a rich flavor that is intensified with the addition of Belgian bitter sweet chocolate. This beer is a velvet painting of chocolate and beer making out while listening to Barry White, painted by Otis Redding…Smooth
