That other brewery posting cat pictures is ripping us off. You can’t drink fancy beer here, but you can drink fancy beer at @OCMousetrap.

Some work days are more fun than others. Don’t mind us just tasting through some beer and dumpling pairings with Jesse from QXY as we plan an epic upcoming QXY x Off Color Brewing Beer Dinner at their new Wicker Park location 👀

25 books into the Off Color Book Club, it’s amazing to think we’ve filled a bookshelf. The visual of the complete collection in chronological order right through next month’s Pulitzer Prize winning The Nickel Boys puts it in perspective. How many of these books have you read?

A bigger, bolder variant of our classic imperial stout, DinoS’mores returns. Like a perfectly toasted marshmallow, the flavor teeters between honey and roasted but avoids any burnt notes as bold sweet confectionery chocolate aromatics give way to a rich, creamy mouthfeel.

The heavy alcohol only lurks well after the brew is quaffed but will leave you feeling as warm as leaving your shoes too close to the campfire. Double Stuffed Dino S’mores is now available on draft and in 4pks of 16oz cans to-go. Distro already underway.

Our collab Si Fang pairs perfectly with all of the dumplings from QXY, but we thought it would be fun to dive deeper and explore a wider range of their specific flavor combinations and our unique beer pairings (we know, it was a really tough job workshopping this one 😂).

The resulting five-course beer dinner is going to be insane. We’ll be taking over the Wicker Park location for a night of dumpling eating and beer drinking. Keep an eye on both of our social media channels for more details and an event date in the next couple of weeks.

A brand new seasonal variant of our hard iced tea is coming out soon. Swing through Mousetrap today for a sneak preview of Apple Cat Fiend on draft before the upcoming can release. We’ll let you know here when cans are available. 🍎🫖

Our original hockey beer is back!! Beer for the Top Shelf (aka Beer for Hockey) is a classic Vienna style lager dosed with a hefty amount of late harvest maple syrup sourced from southwest Michigan.

The maple syrup sugar ferments out almost completely and leaves the lager surprisingly dry with a mild woody note and slight mineral character derived from the maple trees. Melanoidins similar to light brown sugar remain to compliment the sweet nutty flavor of the Vienna malt.

It was the only open establishment between my 4pm and 5:30pm meetings. I regret nothing. Think of it as a Big Lebowski themed co-working space.

A customer came in and asked what day it was and we told them it was October 3rd. Pretty cool moment.

Off Color Brewing .25l cat glass is back in stock! You all have been asking about this one a lot and, based on our behind the bar depletion, taking it when you found out it wasn’t for purchase. We get it. It wasn’t for sale and you wanted it. All is fair in love and glassware.

That said, we ordered a bunch more and have them at the taproom/put them online for you to purchase, so moving forward we’d prefer you acquire them that way. Please and thank you. Link below. offcolorbrewing.com/merch/fa…

A huge thanks to everyone who came out and celebrated Offtoberfest with us yesterday!! There are no ceramic steins left, but we still have a limited number of the new glass steins as well as t-shirts and hats left. All are available online and at the taproom when it opens today.
