7 Beers to Try This Spring at NoFo Brew Co
Spring is officially here! At NoFo Brew Co, we are embracing the season with beers that feel as fresh and lively as these longer, sunnier days. Whether you are posted up on a patio, heading out for a weekend adventure, or just looking for something new in your glass, here are seven beers to sip all spring long.
Alpine Gold
Alpine Gold is our take on a beloved Belgian style wheat beer, brewed with an even split of pale malt and wheat malt for that signature hazy, glowing pour. Liberty hops provide a soft backbone, while sweet orange peel and coriander added late in the boil bring bright citrus aroma and a touch of spice.
At 5.5% ABV and 13 IBU, this beer is smooth, refreshing, and incredibly easy to enjoy. Expect notes of orange zest, soft wheat, and a lightly spiced finish that feels tailor made for sunny afternoons. Plus, find this beer in distribution as our spring seasonal.
You Should Smile More
You Should Smile More is a vibrant fruited sour created in collaboration with the women of NoFo in honor of International Women’s Month. Brewed with Riverbend Malt and Liberty hops, this beer comes alive with the addition of pink guava and passion fruit.
The result is a beautifully balanced beer with floral sweetness and a bright, tart backbone. At 5% ABV and 6.8 IBU, it is light, refreshing, and bursting with tropical character. This is the kind of beer that brings a little extra energy to any spring day.
Found Endurance
For those looking for a lighter option without giving up flavor, Found Endurance is a crushable nonalcoholic hazy pale ale at just 0.5% ABV. It delivers a soft grain and cracker malt character, balanced bitterness, and a bright citrus floral hop aroma. You do not have to give up spending time at a brewery even if you are off the sauce, aka not drinking.
With its light body and hazy yellow pour, this is an easy choice for long afternoons, active days, or anytime you want to keep things refreshing and low key while still enjoying a great beer.
Scarlet Canyon
Scarlet Canyon is a handcrafted Irish Red Ale brewed with a thoughtful blend of malts that create a rich and comforting profile. Notes reminiscent of Irish breakfast tea come through alongside layers of malty sweetness and a firm, assertive bitterness.
At 5.2% ABV and 19.7 IBU, this beer offers a slightly deeper, more grounded option for spring. It is perfect for cooler evenings or anyone looking for a balanced beer with a little more malt character without feeling too heavy.
Redwood Rhapsody
Redwood Rhapsody is a crisp, golden lager that pays tribute to traditional brewing. Made with heritage malts from Germany and a classic lager yeast made famous by Carlsberg, it is clean, refined, and endlessly drinkable.
Perle and Saaz hops bring subtle floral notes and a gentle spice that complement the smooth malt profile. At 4.0% ABV and 20 IBU, this lager is light, refreshing, and perfectly balanced, making it an ideal companion for everything spring throws your way.
Gabby Goes South
Gabby Goes South is a hazy IPA with a story as special as its flavor. Brewed with 100% Michigan grown hops, including Paradigm and Emerald Spire, this beer delivers a soft, pillowy mouthfeel with notes of tropical fruit, white grape, and melon.
Named after Gabby, a 15 year old Piping Plover who migrates each year from Lake Michigan to Cumberland Island, Georgia, this beer celebrates the journey south and the connection between places, seasons, and people.
Our head brewers Britt Teusink and Cory Alexander teamed up on this one, with the all Michigan hop inspiration rooted in Britt’s home state. At 6.3% ABV, it is juicy, expressive, and full of character, just like the story behind it.
Spring Starts Here
No matter your preference, spring is the perfect time to explore something new or rediscover an old favorite. From citrus forward wheat beers to tropical sours, nonalcoholic options, hop driven hazy IPAs, and crisp lagers, there is something in this lineup for every kind of beer drinker.
