Week 1: What's on Tap

Verde Canyon Railroad - Clarkdale, AZ

Tapco - IPA

ABV: 6.0% IBU: 60

Citrus and floral notes with a balanced body of domestic malt and generous hops.
Keep an eye out for this beer’s namesake at milepost 36.

1512 - Mexican Lager

ABV: 4.8% IBU: 12

Clean, light and refreshing; perfect for easy drinking. Named for locomotive 1512, but we couldn’t leave 1510 out of the picture – both power the train and your taste buds.

Copper Town - Mandarin Wheat

ABV: 5.0% IBU: 15

Well balanced with a fantastic mandarin orange aroma that finishes crisp and dry. A favorite, just like Clarkdale and the engrained history of copper that it represents.

Cream Ale

ABV: 6% IBU: 20

Medium-bodied cream ale with notes of toasted almond with a malt finish. As smooth and exclusive as the Railroad itself, this pre-Prohibition recipe is as historic as the train.

Smelter Town Brewery - Clarkdale, AZ

Tea Cup Sallie Double Hazy - IPA

ABV: 8% IBU: 27

This Double Hazy IPA was brewed with 2-row and honey malted oats, Motueka, and Ekuanot hops. It is as full-bodied and delightful as we imagine its namesake was.

Main Street Blonde - Blonde Ale

ABV: 5.5% IBU: 15.5

This approachable yet refined Blonde Ale is malt-forward with just a touch of hop character. It’s not overbearing or bitter on the palate.

Midnight Freight Toasted Marshmallow Porter

ABV: 6% IBU: 35.5

Bold but smooth, this porter is brewed for unhurried nights and good conversation. Built on Maris Otter, golden naked oats and chocolate malt, it delivers deep roasted character with a velvety body and toasty depth. Subtle notes of vanilla and toasted marshmallow add a hint of campfire nostalgia without becoming overly sweet.

Huss Brewing Co. - Phoenix, AZ

Nolan's Porter

Railhead Red

ABV: 5.6%. IBU: 50
