To Go Beer
WarPigs Nemesis Divina
With tempting aromas of rich, dark chocolate intermingling with citrus and tropical hop profiles from extensive dry-hopping, this medium-bodied Porter has a rich malt character which yields to a smooth, dry, chocolate-y finish. Ascend the plane to eternity with Nemesis Divina.
Half Acre Scwarzbeir
This faithfully traditional dark lager is deep ruby brown with excellent clarity. Brittle toffee, bakers chocolate & sticky caramel meld in the chewy roasted malt base. Tettnang & Saaz bring just enough noble hop bitterness to these bready, roasty malts. Schwarzbier is creamy & endlessly flavorful.
Coors Banquet
Coors Banquet is a well-balanced, golden lager that Adolph Coors first brewed in 1873. Since then, Banquet has been brewed only in Golden, Colo., with Rocky Mountain water and Moravian barley.
Donna's Pickle Beer
Donna was backstage at The Garden eating pickles from a jar. In a flash of light, she was pushed onstage and kissed full on the mouth by a beer-drinking Mick Jagger. It was electric! No, not the kiss! The taste in her mouth, beer and pickles! That night Donna's Pickle Beer was born.
Hinterland Door County Cherry Wheat
Our Door County Cherry Wheat pours a golden, orange hue. The frothy two finger off-white, slightly pink-tinted head fades to leave a spotty lace. The slight aroma of cherries doesn't over power the soft wheat smell. These flavors play wonderfully together, neither overpowering the other in taste. With a medium-light body, Cherry Wheat leaves you with a mildly tart Montmorency cherry finish.
Revolution Anti-Hero
The supremely aromatic American hop assault arrives with massive citrus, pine, and floral notes building to a bright, crisp finish.
Revolution Freedom of Speach Sour
A soaring wave of lush ripe peach, elevated by a naturally tart finish. A thirst-quenching declaration for when you want to amplify your voice.
Revolution Hazy Hero
Gaze into the mist and discover the transcendental supremacy of American hops in a Hazy IPA. A smooth, velvety body sets the stage for big fruit-forward flavor and a refreshing finish.v
Revolution Infinity Hero
A next-gen dry hop including Nectaron, Strata, HBC #586, and HBC #1019 provides a glimpse into the future of hop innovation with seemingly endless juicy, citrus character. Experience the nexus of bitterness, sweetness, and fruit-forward flavor.
Revolution Logan Export
A glimmering golden Export-style Lager created with Hopewell Brewing, our neighbors from quite literally down the block. Lightly sweet and refreshingly dry, exported from Logan Square for the benefit of a renewed Logan Boulevard Skate Park.
Shortfuse Chocolate Milk Stout
Our take on the classic 1950's chocolate malted milkshake. To accomplish this we first started with big amounts of chocolate malt and a dash of cookie malt in the grain bill. We then added malted milk powder and dosed it with some milk chocolate chips. The result is a big creamy stout with decadent chocolate flavors.
Surly Prodigal Sunrise
Brewed with mango and passion fruit, welcome the powerful, sweet-tart flavor of Prodigal Sunrise into your home. Contains lactose.
Untitled Art Pixie Mix: Pink Lemonade
Hard Seltzer with Nostalgic Flavors. Think candy sugar igniting your soul.
Marz Jungle Boogie Wheat Pale
Jungle Boogie is an American Wheat beer with just enough complex malt character to balance the hops and fruity rooibos tea flavors.
Krombacher Pils
With Krombacher Pils you enjoy a distinctive, finely bitter taste and a full-flavoured aroma – this is a genuine premium pilsner beer with an alcohol content of 4.8 %. Our modern production processes enhance the traditional recipe whilst complimenting the natural products that have been used for generations to create the unique brew that is Krombacher Pils.
Firestone Walker Cali Squeeze
Brewed with real blood orange for maximum refreshment. A crisp beer with juicy orange flavors and fresh citrus flavors, that always go down easy.
Pollyanna Full Lemonty Golden Ale
A crisp and clean golden ale brewed with white wheat, Belgian aromatic malts, and a blend of American hops leaving a delicate bitterness to balance the subtle, underlying sweetness. Both a gateway beer for new craft beer fans and an all-day sipper for the vet, this is something everyone can enjoy.
Right Bee Dry Cider

Illuminated Junior Astronaut Juice
You've told us how important Astronaut Juice is to your space program, so we've built a lower gravity version with the same hop schedule - Mosaic, Mandarina Bavaria, Amarillo & Pacifica - and the same late-hop strategy so you can enjoy its tangerine flavor even on your longer orbits through outer space. Good luck out there Astronauts, and, please, enjoy with people you trust.

Sketchbook Double Coastal IPA
Our Midwestern homage to the West Coast. Lake Michigan water is the base for this hop-forward West Coast IPA with a rich and complex flavor profile. Assertive aromas of pine, citrus, and tropical fruits from Cascade, Centennial, and Chinook hops grown in Michigan.
Great Lakes Edmund Fitzgarld Stout

This devilishly smooth golden strong clocks in at 8.5% but drinks like 6.0%. Aroma and flavor of ripe pear balanced with white pepper. Effervescence from high carbonation lightens up the rich malt backbone.

Brewed with over five pounds of hops per barrel, this unfiltered double IPA is sure to please the most discerning hop lover. Whether you're rooting for the mythical horned horse or the deadly assassin of the east, we hope you'll enjoy Ninja Vs. Unicorn.
Stiegl-Paracelsus Bio-Zwickl
Only Austrian ingredients from controlled biological cultivation are used in this amber-colored, natural and traditional beer specialty from Salzburg. When brewing this beer we add Laufener Landweizen to the blend – a fine ancient grain we grow on healthy land and malt ourselves at the Stiegl-Farm Wildshut. This completes the velvelty mild taste – an absolute delight.

To Go Wine

Tangent Sauvignon Blanc 2021
A rare example of a cool climate Sauvignon Blanc is bright and racy. Full of flavors of zesty citrus, guava and passionfruit witha chalky minerality and a hint of salinity.

We like to think of this wine as the perfect combination of Sauvignon Blancs from New Zealand and Sancerre– bursting with fruit flavors and balanced with the perfect amount of racy acidity.

One of if not the coolest bar I've ever been in. Not sure if this is a normal setup in other areas but I've never seen something like this before. 100% recommend stopping in and trying a few.
November 2024
The Navigator taproom was very quiet when we visited on a Sunday afternoon. We were the only two customers until another pair showed up just before we were leaving. I appreciated how clean everything was - like the staff really cared about the place. The host welcoming us was extremely friendly and explained how the taps worked - he also changed the TV to a game we wanted to watch. Good beer selection and pricing seemed reasonable. We had a great experience and were glad we stopped...
