Months of research and an unknown amount of taste-testing went into the development of The Rumpus Room's beer list incorporating 25 drafts, 150 domestic, craft and rare beers you don't have to leave the country to taste. Options include firkins and beer on the engine (a device for dispensing beer using a pump operated by hand). Highlights from the hotly debated and frequently-changing draft beer list include: UniBroue Raftman, Hitachino Nest White Ale, NOgne Imperial Brown Ale, G. Schneider & Sohn Avenitus.

The spirits offerings are divided between an exhaustive "brown liquor" list made up of more than 75 bourbons, 75 scotches, 50 whiskeys, 50 rums, 25 tequilas. Craft cocktails are produced in rare, small-batch productions with a special focus on local producers, house-made reductions, syrups and house barrel-aged cocktails.

We are proud to offer wines from the Niven Family Estates available by the glass or carafe as well as 50 bottles under $50 and 25 that are not.

Bottled Beer

Light Bodied Ales and Lagers
Clean, crisp tastes and generally light on the palete. In Bavaria these are often called ‘Flussiges Brot’ which translates as ‘Liquid Bread’.  Great aperitifs or good with foods that won’t overpower them.  Try with the daily flatbread or the oysters.  

Great Lakes Brewing Dortmunder Gold, Cleveland, OH
Style: Dortmunder Export  ABV: 5.8%    5.00

Three Floyds Pride and Joy, Munster, IN
Style: American Mild Ale  ABV: 5.0%    6.00

Wheat Beer

Beers brewed with a healthy amount of wheat tend to be brisk and light on the palate, with racy, thirst quenching acidity.  Proteins from the wheat give the beer a hazy glow.  Great brunch beers, as many of these taste like bananas with a little spice.  For a perfect flavor marriage, get the chicken wings with harissa and yogurt.  
    
Stillwater Artisnal Ales Jaded, Gypsy Brewer
Style: Belgian Dark Wheat Ale ABV:10% 330ml    19.00

Alaskan White Ale, Alaska
Style: Wit ABV: 5.3%     5.00

Upland Wheat, Bloomington, IN
Style: American Wheat Ale    ABV: 4.5%    5.00

Pale Ales

Hop centered but still well balanced with the light to medium malts.  Hops are often described as citrusy, herbal, or spicy.  So they tend to be versatile with food.  Try one of these with a nice juicy ribeye or maybe the fried chicken sandwich.

Fullers London Pride, London, UK
Style: Extra Special Bitter ABV: 4.7% 16.9 oz     11.00

Style: American IPA ABV: 6.9%    19.00

India Pale Ale (IPA)
Imperial India Pale Ales (IIPA)

HOP BOMBSSSSSSSSSS!!!! Yeah that many s’s was necessary to convey the hoppiness of these beers. Something to note with these beers.  Hops amplify spiciness in food,  So careful with the extra hot sauce on your wings.  A nice well-charred burger can stand up to these beers nicely as well as the Pork Scnitzel.

New Belgium, Ranger, Fort Collins, CO
Style: IPA      ABV:  6.5%        5.50

Amber Ales and Lagers

Versatility is the name of the game here.  Ambers tend to be well balanced between a snappy hop bitterness and strong malty backbone.  One of our house favorites is pairing these with the pork shoulder.

Porter

 Dark and roasty but not so much that these beers are not versatile food companions.  English versions are perfect for our scallops or oysters.  Where American versions might be better with the braised pork belly or sweetbreads.  Also don’t shy away from getting a nice steak with these, there is a reason there is a cut of steak called ‘porterhouse’.

Bock, Mai/Dopple/Eis/Traditional

Bock means goat in German.  But don’t be worried these beers don’t taste ‘Goaty’(also not a word).  These lagers are strong and malty but have a certain smooth finesse that make them great all around food beers.

Stout, Russian Imperial Stout (RIS),
Oatmeal, Sweet

Think of these as SuperPorters.  Chocolate, coffee,  roasted flavors all take center stage here.  Enough roast to hold up to a charbroiled steak, and the stout braised lamb is perfect, but don’t be afraid to get a coffee stout with breakfast!  Thinking of dessert?  These beers hold up to thick chocolate dishes as well as compliment fruity desserts.

Strong Ale

A big catch-all category for big, high alcohol beers.  Perfect to finish off a meal with.  Maybe skip dessert and end with a cheese plate.  Our strong, 100% Wisconsin made cheeses go perfectly with beers of this caliber.

Belgian & French Ale

There are no styles in Belgium.  Though us Americans will try to attach a name to anything. Overall these beers are full bodied and as versatile as they come.  Try a Saison and mussels to start and you’ll see why the Belgians are considered some of the most relaxed people on the planet.
