Illinois State Athletics

BACK THE BIRDS:

Easygoing and golden to the core, this 4.2% ale is like sunshine in a glass. Magnum hops add a tidy bitterness, while the 2-row and Vienna malts add just a whisper of toast. Light, bright, and endlessly enjoyable, Back the Birds is a beer that doesn’t need a special occasion – just good company and maybe a sunny spot.

1857:

1857 is packed with vibrant, juicy flavors from Citra and Mosaic hops, bright citrus aromas, touches of tropical fruit and a gentle sweetness come together in every sip. 1857 is your flavorful companion for unwinding without missing a beat. This beer supports the Illinois State University Athletic Department.
