This Friday, we’re saying a real sad goodbye to one of our first hires and favorite humans, Mike Fuller (@_fullermike_ ). He came on as a doorman/bartender, but we quickly realized we needed help in the cellar and it turns out that he’s actually got quite the brewing resume! We brought him on part-time and immediately knew we had to have him around more often, and he’s been one of our full-time Brewers / Cellarpeople since right around our opening. Mike was pivotal in keeping the ship afloat during the exhausting year of COVID, and his work ethic and high spirits were tantamount in helping us launch the second phase in our Mixed Culture program. Alas, he’s off to SC to run his own ship at a startup brewery in a big College town. We won’t ruin the surprise just yet, but keep your eyes peeled for a few upcoming collabs as they get set to open in the coming months!

You may have seen him around the taproom, but you’ve certainly consumed his hard work in liquid form. If you happen to see him before he leaves town, please give him a socially distanced air-hug and wish him the best of luck! We couldn’t be more excited to see what this next chapter holds for our buddy, the one and only, Mike Fuller! THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK! AND THANK YOU FOR EXISTING!

PS: This form of individual appreciation posts will be how we announce fresh batches of Thank You For Existing. So yeah, also there’s fresh Kolsch, babyyyyyyyyyy!

WHAT IN TARNATION IS A SPARKLIN’ SESSION MEAD?!

Well, that’s funny you should ask! Sparkling Session Mead utilizes a more diluted base of Honey and Water, usually treated with brewing salts and acid for pH correction, and fermented to total dryness. Typically, these are low in alcohol and sugar, but high in carbonation and flavor! That’s just what we did! AND WE DID IT TWICE!

Here at DSSOLVR, we’re not just about beer, but a spectrum of fermented products. We realize that sometimes beer may not be the best option for everyone. With that in mind, we’re going to keep trucking on down the line of non-beer options for all of our dopest/finest friends!

We started with the finest of honey from @walkerhoneyfarm in Austin, TX, treated our water just slightly to help make it pop, and fermented two separate blends with our House Wine Yeast. We also spunded these tanks for natural carbonation, giving them some extra smooth bubbles.

“Only For My Finest Friends” is a 5.0% ABV Sparkling Session Mead utilizing Orange Blossom and Yaupon Honey varietals. We get notes similar to White Pear, fresh slices of Honeycrisp Apples, Orange Blossom tea, and fresh open fields in the Spring.

“Only For My Dopest Friends” is a 5.2% ABV Sparkling Session Mead utilizing Orange Blossom and Sesame Honey varietals. We get notes of fresh-pressed Red Delicious Apples, those little Strawberry candies, a hand-smack of Pineapple Sage, and a dash of White Pear.

Both of these are available in a mixed-4pk, so you can compare and contrast. Say it with us now... “LEARNING IS FUN, DAMMIT!”

AVAILABLE ONLINE FOR NC SHIPPING, LOCAL PICK-UP, AND ON DRAFT AND IN CANS IN THE TAPROOM TODAY!

•Mystery Engine

What’s better than a fresh slice of Cheesecake, pebbled with fresh Blueberries, sensually fed to you by a lover? FEEDING IT TO YOUR OWN DAMN SELF CUZ YOU DON’T NEED NO LOVER!

“Misery Engine” is a Blueberry Cheesecake Sour, and ½ of our Sour Love Valentine’s Mix Pack. Mashed with @riverbendmalt 2-Row, Wheat, and a touch of Honey Malt. Re-fermented with a whole mess of Blueberries, a touch of Cinnamon, and a whole buncha Cheesecake.

Just like a cold slice of Cheesecake with that perfect Graham Cracker crust, with some nice meteors of Blueberry baked right in there, some fresh Blueberry jam drizzled all on top, and just a dusting of Cinnamon. It’s better than a Valentine’s blind date that you got set up on cuz your not-single friends are tired of your whining, and it won’t be passive aggressive over your restaurant choice. It rules. You want it.

Love sucks. Cheesecake Sours do not.

•Disposable Savior

What’s better than a ripe Strawberry, dipped in White Chocolate, and sensually fed to you by a lover? FEEDING IT TO YOUR OWN DAMN SELF CUZ YOU DON’T NEED NO LOVIN!

“Disposable Savior” is a Strawberry White Chocolate Sour, and ½ of our Sour Love Valentine’s Mix Pack. Mashed with @riverbendmalt 2-Row, Wheat, and a touch of Honey Malt. Re-fermented with a wild amount of Strawberries and an astounding amount of Cocoa Butter from our pals @frenchbroadchocolate .

Exactly like a fresh, ripe Strawberry, dipped in White Chocolate. Like, for real...it’s dead-on. It’s better than an awkward last minute Valentine’s Tinder-date, and it certainly won’t leave you on read. It rules. You want it.

Love sucks. White Chocolate Fruited Sours do not.

AVAILABLE ONLINE FOR NC SHIPPING, LOCAL PICK-UP, AND ON DRAFT AND IN MIX PKS IN THE TAPROOM NOW!

NO FRICKIN’ WAY! ANOTHER SELTZER?! WAS HAPPENIN??😛This one is, in fact, pretty savage. “Classy Bougie Ratchet” is our next foray into Sexxxy Hard Seltzer. In our sassy, moody, nasty, fashion, we turned the dial up yet again.

Shockingly reminiscent of a Mango Margarita dusted with lil’ cutie Marshmallow bits. Mango up front, with a really cool creaminess from the Marshmallow, but the Lime and Sea Salt really bring the whole room together. Just a hint of tartness, a super clean finish. Shoulda called this “Liquid Sex”, but our HR Department had some thoughts on that.

9% Mango Marshmallow Margarita Hard Seltzer. HELL YES!

AVAILABLE IN THE TAPROOM AND ONLINE FOR NC SHIPPING OR LOCAL PICKUP TODAY!

For “In the Pursuit of Honor” East Coast Hazy IPA, we took half of the wort post-boil into the Whirlpool and added in a HEAVY amount of Centennial and Columbus, along with Brewer’s Crystals for body and our typical water adjustments for NEIPA. We fermented that with our House IPA yeast, dry hopped it with Idaho 7, and then hit it again with a second dry hop of Mosaic and BRU-1. Big notes of Orange pulp, a sticky grassy green substance, Blueberry compote, and a touch of dried Pineapple wedges. Starts dank, finishes fruity.

For “Sidetracked by Demons” West Coast Hazy DIPA, we kept the other half of the boil in the kettle and continued to boil for another hour while adding Columbus throughout for the classic West Coast resin-bomb character, along with a water adjustment more in-line with West Coast IPA, and a hefty dose of Dextrose to help dry it out. We then sent it into the Whirlpool with some Centennial, fermented it with our House Pub Ale yeast, dry hopped it with NZ Cascade, and then hit it again with a second dry hop of even more NZ Cascade, Columbus and Magnum. Big notes of overripe Peaches, Sunny D in the sun, a full bite of Grapefruit pith, and a beer bong full of pine sap. Starts fruity, finishes DANK AS HELL.

Both of these beers are now available on draft and together in a mixed 4 pack TODAY!

We’ve been embracing our inner dessert freaks during this pandemic, and we’d like to welcome a new beer that fits well within that scope. “Fill Thy Cake Hole” is a German Chocolate Cake Stout brewed with a base of @riverbendmalt Southern Select and a whole bevy of Specialty Malts, then dosed with Macaroon and Toasted Coconut, Cocoa Nibs and Husks from @frenchbroadchocolate ,Vanilla Beans, and Vanilla Cake. Big and sweet, but very well balanced, and at 8.2% it’s not gonna totally destroy you.

Notes of toasted marshmallows, a handful of sweet toffee candies, toasted caramel coconut squares, extra fudgy chocolate cake, vanilla frosting, and...uh, yeah, this tastes like German Chocolate Cake (NO NUTS OR LACTOSE WERE USED IN THIS BEER).
Available in the taproom and online for NC shipping or local pickup TODAY!
