We are proud to have a range of impressive imagery on all our labels. The Raptors that represent our ales possess all the qualities that our beers have. For example, the Red Tail Hawk, native to Northern California, combines a subtle strength with an amber allure that is reflected perfectly in the ale that bears its name. Eye of the Hawk, features a magnificent head of a Hawk - its piercing eyes giving it an aura of power and presence. So also, our Select Ale that pays tribute to this Hawk. The Black Hawk that our stout portrays, is a singularly elegant raptor that has a maturity born of confidence - so too our Stout.

Why then you ask, if raptors roam our product portfolio, have we used a Heron to symbolize Blue Heron Pale Ale? Ah, well, that is the exception that proves the rule! When we were creating this smooth and elegant ale, its subtle smoothness and lingering taste is rumored to have reminded our Master Brewer of the lyrical way the wings of this fine bird beat as it stretched from head to foot soaring to the clouds. At least that is the story he told us!

Come, visit our Hopland Brew Pub, where first we dreamt of raising raptors and brewing beers that became legends.
