Third Base Brewery

BREWING IN CEDAR RAPIDS, IA SINCE 1996

It's it's own thing!  Served in pints (6.00) and  25oz mugs (7.00)


The Bees Knees is brewed with a small amount of caramel malts for color and honey malt for flavor, along with just enough hops to balance out the sweetness of the honey that we add in the boil.  We use 25 lbs of locally produced Wild Flower honey in every batch.  It is smooth, sweet and our most popular beer.


Malt:  2 Row, Carapils, Honey Malt, Crystal Malt

Hops:  Warrior, Crystal

25 lbs of Iowa Wildflower honey at the end of the boil.

Yeast:  American Ale


American Amber Ale, served in pints (6.00) and 25oz mugs (7.00)


Our take on an American Amber Ale blends Pale, Crystal, Munich, and Chocolate malts to for a malt backbone that supports a hefty dose of Cascade and Columbus hops.  It's malty, hoppy, and amazingly drinkable.


Malt:  2 Row, Victory, Crystal, Chocolate, Pale Chocolate, Munich

Hops:  Cascade, Columbus

Yeast:  American Ale

Black cobra oatmeal stout

​abv:  5.3  IBU:  34

Doppelbock served in pints (6.00)
and 25oz mug (7.00)
This style is a bigger and stronger version of the lower-gravity German-Style Bock beers. Originally made by monks in Munich, the Doppelbock beer style is very food-friendly and rich in melanoidins reminiscent of toasted bread. Malty sweetness is dominant but not cloying. Malt character is more reminiscent of fresh and lightly toasted Munich-style malt, more so than caramel or toffee malt.
Brewed to celebrate our 28th year as a brewery

Malt: Munich, Pils, Roasted Barley
Hops: Nugget


Oatmeal Stout, served in pints (6.00) and 25oz mugs (7.00)


This is a rich and complex beer.  We use flaked oats and barley to add a certain "mouth-feel" to the beer, as well as dark crystal malts for some residual sweetness and body.  This beer is dark but it's also very approachable for all beer fans.  It has flavors of coffee, toffee, and caramel.  It's roasty and toasty.  Don't be scared!  Just try some! 


Malt:  2 Row, Flaked Barley, Flaked Wheat, Roasted Barley, Crystal Malts

Hops:  East Kent Goldings

Yeast:  American Ale


American Wheat Ale, served in pints (6.00) and 25oz mugs (7.00)

“Edel” translates from German to “Noble” and this unfiltered lager used a metric boatload of noble hops from Germany.
It pours a hazy golden color with a strong head of white foam.

The flavor profile is crisp, assertive, and dry, with notes of bright citrus, warm spices, and fresh herbs, along with a light, doughy malt character. 

Its light body with a dry and crisp finish make it an ideal beer for spring and summer months

seasonals

American Pale Ale, served in pints (6.00) and 25oz mugs (7.00)


An American style Pale Ale, this beer isn't like its British sisters.  Bittered with Centennial hops early and a much heftier portion of Cascade, Columbus, and Centennial hops late to add the citrusy flavor and aroma.  We also use a clean fermenting yeast and let the gravity finish low to keep it dry, crisp, and leaving you wanting more.


Malt:  2 Row, Golden Promise, Carastan, Carapils

Hops:  Centennial, Cascade, Columbus

Yeast:  American Ale
