- Duck-Rabbit Brown Ale is an American brown ale brewed with loads of hops from start to finish. Amarillo hops in the boil provide a spicy, citrusy bitterness. Saaz hops dry hops in the fermentor provide a refined flowery aroma. These hops are supported by a grain bill of seven varieties of malt. 5.6% ABV.

Collaboration with Foothills and Olde Hickory
Duck-Rabbit collaborated with Foothills Brewing and Olde Hickory Brewery to create a Bourbon-barrel-aged imperial stout called "Olde Rabbit's Foot". The special limited release was crafted from wort from all three craft breweries, brewed with honey and cocoa nibs, and aged in 23-year-old bourbon barrels. It had an ABV of 10.13%. Only 694 bottles were released.[1]
