Wicked Brewing Process

Wicked Beaver Brewery is very basic. Wicked Beaver Beer starts with only pure natural ground water, enriched with essential minerals that aids in the variety of Wicked Beaver’s unique Malted Beer flavors. Our mineral rich groundwater comes from the Ogallala Aquifer, in the Panhandle of Texas. We use only the finest of ingredients from the best maltsters, hop growers and yeast suppliers. The quality of Wicked Beaver beer is only as good as the quality of our ingredients.

The Mash
We begin by mashing the malted grains to extract all the fermentable sugars. This is where a combination of malted grains and un-malted grains are added to build the body of Wicked Beaver beer. At this point, the mixture is called wort.

The Brew
Once sugars are extracted, then brewing our Wicked Beaver begins. This is where our hand selected hops are added to add to the wicked brew to add a slight bittering and our unique aroma to the beer.

The Fermentation
We are now ready for fermentation once brewing is complete. The wicked wort is cooled to room temperature and transferred into the fermenter. Yeast is added and the transformation of Wicked Beaver beer begins.

The Filtration
Once fermentation is complete, the Wicked Beaver Brew is filtered and transferred to the bright tank for carbonation. Finally The Wicked Beaver Brew is bottled, and sent to you, as your Home Brew on the Shelf!

Wicked Beaver Black Ale
A delicious black ale, brewed with the perfect balance of exquisite malt and hand picked hops. The brew has a rich yet smooth taste with a wickedly hoppy aroma. This ain't the kinda beer you drink because of a fancy shmancy ad you saw in some hipster magazine. This is your Home Brew on the Shelf. You take in the Wicked Beaver Black Ale’s deliciousness out of pure respect for a beer brewed wild and free. It might even take you right back to "the good old days" one satisfying sip after the next. Dive into the beaver's frosty goodness and it will feel like the first time, time and again. And remember the beaver always treats you right!
