Explore the New Best Day Brewing Grayslake Selection & Craft Drops
We broke down this week’s fresh arrivals to map out their exact ingredients, hop layouts, and flavor profiles so you know exactly what is coming home with you:
Best Day Brewing (Non-Alcoholic – Less than 0.5% ABV)
The Best Day Brewing Grayslake Selection features two incredibly versatile variety packs built for social weekends without the alcohol side effects:
- Galaxy Ripple Non-Alcoholic Imperial IPA: This highly anticipated double IPA is brewed exclusively with Galaxy hops. It pours a beautiful golden color and opens with a pungent, tropical nose of fresh pineapple and wet pine. The palate balances a full-bodied malt sweetness with juicy layers of ripe peach and passionfruit, finishing with a firm, resinous hop bitterness.
- IPA Variety 12-Pack: A hop-head’s dream mix containing four cans each of their West Coast IPA (grapefruit-citrus forward with a clean pine bite), Hazy IPA (soft, pillowy, and tropical), and the standout Galaxy Ripple Imperial IPA.
- Classic Variety 12-Pack: A crisp, clean-drinking sampler pack featuring four cans each of their bready, traditional Kolsch; the highly refreshing Electro-Lime Mexican Lager infused with sea salt and real lime; and the light, crisp Wild American Pilsner.
Spiteful Brewing
- Alley Time Pale Ale (6.0% ABV): A classic, dry Chicago-style pale ale brewed with pilsner malt and a single, deliberate addition of Simcoe hops. The aroma hits with fresh pine needles and bright lemon zest. Its body is light and breezy, finishing with a clean, dry, grassy bitterness.
Hopewell Brewing Co.
- Hef Bavarian Style Hefeweizen (5.2% ABV): A fluffy, highly carbonated traditional wheat beer. It leads with a distinct, yeast-driven aroma of sweet banana and pungent clove, supported by a light, bready malt body that goes down incredibly easy.
Chouffe
- Cherry Chouffe (8.0% ABV): A warming, ruby-red Belgian strong ale conditioned with real sour cherries. The aroma offers rich stone fruit and sweet almond, leading into a malty, slightly tart, and complex finish that completely masks its higher alcohol strength.
JuneShine Hard Kombucha (6.0% ABV)
- Oasis Variety 8-Pack: Organic, probiotic-rich, and completely gluten-free. This specialty sampler features four distinct fruit-forward profiles:
- Ocean Squeeze: Inspired by coastal flavors, this batch is brewed with tropical guava, zesty yuzu, pineapple, and a tiny pinch of Hawaiian red lava sea salt for a crisp, semi-sweet finish.
- Peachy Punch: Sweet, juicy peach notes balanced by a clean green tea base.
- Watermelon Razz: Thirst-quenching watermelon paired with a tart, vibrant raspberry punch.
- Mango Daydream: Lush, tropical mango with a smooth, subtly spiced kombucha finish.
Lone River Hard Seltzers (4.0% ABV)
- Lemonade Splash Variety 12-Pack: Light, effervescent, and clocking in under 100 calories:
- Classic Agave: Juicy lemonade flavors with a subtle hint of spicy agave nectar.
- Prickly Pear: Sweet, tropical prickly pear notes with a bright lemon finish.
- Blueberry: Sweet freshly picked blueberries over a crisp lemonade backbone.
- Hot Honey: Bright lemonade paired with sweet floral honey and a slow, warm chili spice kick on the finish.
High Rise Beverage Co.
- Citrus Spirit Replacer (Non-Alcoholic): A craft spirit alternative designed for elevated, alcohol-free mixing. Infused with 10mg THC, 2.5mg CBD, and 2.5mg CBG per serving, it uses real fruit juice and organic cane sugar to deliver a smooth, rounded mouthfeel and a clean, citrusy finish.
Blaum Bros. Distilling Co.
- Straight Bourbon Whiskey (50% ABV / 100 Proof): Restocked! Matured to perfection in deeply charred white oak casks, this robust bourbon boasts sweet aromas of dark caramel and toasted vanilla, leaving a long, warming path of oaky spice on the palate.
