Influenced by lager styles from Japan, Germany and the American prohibition. This light bodied, golden lager is our original brew, and a national award winning beer in 2023. It has a malt forward backbone that is accentuated by a crisp, dry finish.

Bossman Lager

Garlic mayo is a creamy sauce blending mayonnaise with minced garlic, often used to enhance various dishes.

Garlic Mayo

Ham, cheddar cheese, fresh tomatoes, and arugula.

Ham and Cheese Sandwich

A grilled sourdough melt with hickory smoked ham, crispy hardwood smoked bacon, melted cheddar and American cheese, sliced tomato and mayo.

Begin by slicing the tomato into thin slices and set aside. Also, slice the cheddar and American cheese if not pre-sliced.

Prepare the Ingredients

In a skillet over medium heat, cook the hardwood smoked bacon until crispy. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels.

Cook the Bacon

Spread mayonnaise on one side of each slice of sourdough bread. On the unbuttered side, layer the hickory smoked ham, crispy bacon, cheddar cheese, American cheese, and tomato slices.

Assemble the Sandwich

Top with another slice of sourdough bread, mayonnaise side down. Heat the skillet over medium-low heat and add the butter. Once melted, place the sandwich in the skillet.

Grill the Sandwich

Cook the sandwich for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted. Press down gently with a spatula to ensure even cooking.

Cook Until Golden

Remove the sandwich from the skillet, slice in half if desired, and serve hot.
