This craft lager harmonizes noble hops and premium malts found in North America and Europe. We did the traveling to save you the paddling. Brewed with pristine Lake Superior water, this straw colored pilsener takes on characteristics of Bohemia, Northern Germany with a touch of American inventiveness. Refreshingly crisp with a gentle floral hop aroma.
An unexpected visual bend to an American India Pale Ale, this style is one that stands out in a crowd, or if you’re more like us – enjoyed at a campsite…with no crowd. This non-traditional IPA is golden in color with an enormous floral/citrus hop aroma and a supporting malt profile
We love to dress to impress... Mother Nature - and a button up Hawaiian shirt is about as fancy as the wilderness needs us to be! We brewed an American kettle sour, in the Berliner Weisse style, to pair with the tropical flavors of Passion Fruit, Orange and Guava (P.O.G). Easy going with a refreshing yet buttoned-up tartness, our POG American Sour will take you along on its own leisurely heleʻaneʻa (adventure)!

Community and partnerships are a large part of how Bent Paddle rolls! We have once again partnered with local Duluth manufacturer Loll Designs to create this flavorful west-coast style pale ale. Lollygagger embodies the laid back form factor of the 100% recycled LOLL chair from which its’ named. After a full day of human powered adventure activity, its great to sit back and enjoy a bright, hop forward pale ale in a stylish Minnesota made outdoor chair! Both companies are Paddling It Forward by dedicating 1% of gross sales of this beer to environmental causes through the 1% For The Planet initiative.
