Urban Roots Brewing & Smokehouse

Life Adjacent, our Bourbon Barrel Aged Scotch Ale spent the past 17 months in freshly emptied Buffalo Trace bourbon barrels and now it’s time for you to enjoy it! This beer is DELICIOUS and features flavors of malt, bourbon and rich caramel. ⠀

It’s exciting to see these beers finished and released as we’ve been brewing them since before we opened to the public. Now many of these projects are just coming to maturity. Expect more to come from barrels soon! ⠀

This our first barrel aged beer to be packaged in cans which is something that we’re stoked on. Pick up a 4-pack on your next visit and let us know what you think!

Track 7 Brewing Co.

With all our recent smoothie sours, we just couldn't resist brewing up a smoothie version of Chasing Rainbows! 🥤 Chasing Trends Kettle Sour with Passion Fruit, Orange, Guava, and Lactose is beaming into taprooms this Sat, and it's bringing 2X the fruit with it 🌈🤙
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Juicy POG flavors get the smoothie treatment with the addition of lactose for that thick, luscious mouthfeel. Despite all of the additional fruit, Chasing Trends still has that characteristic rainbows tartness you know and love.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Chasing Trends will be joined by Left Eye Right Eye Left Eye! ☠️ Our beloved Left Eye Right Eye is a big beer, but sometimes we like to take things bigger. Enter Left Eye Right Eye Left Eye: make sure not to take your eye off this 3XIPA — it packs 1, 2...3 punches 💥🥊:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠
🍋 a citrus shot from Cascade
🌴 tropical punch of Mosaic
🍑 and juicy peach wallop from Amarillo!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠
Underneath all of this fruit is a light note pine needles in the background 🌲 Despite its 11% ABV, it's a very drinkable 3XIPA thanks to its crisp malt backbone which balances all of the bitterness.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Lastly, we have Salute Italian-Style Pilsner! Brewed with Italian pilsner malt but dry-hopped exclusively with Noble hop varieties, Salute has an incredible aroma. On the nose you get a delicate spice note and mild lemony orange citrus 🍋🍊 along with some grass, hay, and dried flowers in the background 🌼🌾🍃
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The same citrus and earthy herbalness translates on the palate along with notes of soft baked bread, a mild graininess, and just a touch of honey thanks to that Italian pilsner malt 🥖 Refreshingly dry and light in body, Salute is perfect for getting you through this weekend's heat wave ☀️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Catch the can release this Sat 9.5 at our Natomas + Curtis Park taprooms at noon and at 11 am.

Thurs-Fri 3-8pm on-site.
Sat 12-8pm on-site.
Sunday 12-6pm on-site.

(To-go options will always be available when we are open)

•We will be practicing safe social distancing guidelines. Like everyone else, these are County and state mandates. Not personal preferences. Please be kind to the staff enforcing the safety precautions. If it’s too much, we do still offer to-go orders to enjoy at home!

•A host/hostess will greet you and guide you to your designated seat. Because capacity is limited, seats will be first come, first serve. We will have a waiting list once full, and will call you to be seated as space becomes available. You’ll have 5 minutes to return and claim a spot!

•Masks are currently required per state-wide mandate. This means you’ll need one when ordering, and walking to and from your table. While seated, they can be off to enjoy your beverage. Staff will always be wearing them.

• Extra sanitizing measures will be in place, so please allow a few extra minutes between groups so our staff can clean.

•Groups will be limited to sizes of 6 or less. Please keep in mind that not all of our tables can hold 6. Smaller groups may get seated first.

•Our new partners for food, ordered a bada** shipping container to operate out of, however delivery is slightly delayed due to surrounding circumstances. So they will be on-site for a soft opening in a catering tent this Friday. As always, we do allow outside food too!

Tilted Mash Brewing

🚨 Soft Opening Friday 3pm 🚨
I know you have missed us, and we have missed you all as well!!
The time has finally come!!
Our taproom is reopening to the public for onsite consumption TOMORROW 3pm!!

As many of you have found out, in order to consume beer on site the ABC has required the purchase of food on the same receipt as your beer. You will have the option to purchase a $5.00 voucher for that day's food truck (when available). We have also partnered up with some local food trucks to make sure we offer a food item when a Food Truck is not available.
As long as one meal item is on a tab or single transaction there is no limit to how many beers you can add to it.
This is a REQUIREMENT and is non-negotiable. Please read the new hours and additional taproom guidelines below.

NEW TEMPORARY HOURS
Monday through Friday - 3-8pm
Saturday and Sunday - 12pm to 8pm


NEW TEMPORARY TAPROOM GUIDELINES

- Taproom will be restricted to limited capacity
- Once at capacity there will be a first come, first serve wait list to enter
- Once your name is up we will give you a phone call and you will have 5 minutes to claim your table before we move onto the rest of the list
- Parties no more than 6 people per table. Including kids.
- Tables will be at least 6 feet apart from one another
- Masks are not required but highly recommended
- EVERY tab or single transaction MUST include a Food Item.
- No drinking in non-designated areas, meaning no walking around. Parties must remain at their table area.

All of this is just as new to us as it is to you. We are asking for your patience as we figure all this out, especially finding accurate wait times once we reach capacity. For the safety and respect of the bar staff and other guests we reserve the right to ask anyone to leave if they do not comply with the above guidelines.

Can Release Day!
For those who preordered- show up anytime after 12:00pm and we’ll make sure you get your cans as fast as possible.
For those who have yet to order- head to our site and order from there. We are already 1/2 way sold out of all 4 beers so we are encouraging online sales over ”door sales” for simplicity and proper social distancing practices.
*No limits due to the website capabilities*
•Dream Clouds - Hazy DIPA w/ Citra, Strata, Galaxy 8%
Laced with the juiciest hops on the market- This perfect combination of ripe fruit and light dank melds beautifully into the soft backbone of flaked oats and pilsner malt. A drier finish helps keep the hops in focus, making a easy drinking juice bomb.
$20/4pk

•Forgotten Thoughts - Hazy IPA w/Mosaic, El Dorado, Citra 6.5%
Need we say more!? The high oil content of all of these hops brings out the best of the best of fruit expression. Mosaic brings blueberry and a fresh herb dankness, El Dorado showcases sweet pear and melon, and our favorite hop of all time, Citra brings out passionfruit, pineapple and lime.
$18/4pk

•POG Pool Floaty Party - Imperial POG Sour w/ Marshmallow 8.5%
'Tis the Season! Pool Floaty Party returns in tropical fashion. This imperial sour base was treated with nearly 3lbs of fruit/gallon. We softened the acidity just a touch to allow the bright passionfruit to come through. Guava adds a round mouthfeel, some rad funky notes, and instead of the traditional orange- we went with the sweeter cousin, Tangerine!
A touch of marshmallow adds the creamy impression of sweetness to a dry and refreshing beer. The perfect companion for the pool floaties.
$22/4pk

•Stay Cool - West Coast Pale Ale 5.5%
With graduation season around but no one to walk the stage, we decided to make a beer that pays homage to our roots. School colors, embarrassing photos, and the signature "Stay Cool" written on everyone's yearbook. Some old school hops bring the classic citrus and pine while the new kids play up pineapple and resin. The bitterness on the finish quenches your thirst and demands another sip... or chug.
$16/4pk

TOMORROW we will be pouring beer from our friends
Want to learn a little about HenHouse?! One outstanding fact about this great brewery is their drive to not only make excellent beer but to make living wage jobs and careers for their employees, and to make a difference in the community.
When they started, it was two years of long nights and longer weekends brewing and hand bottling beer 90 gallons at a time. Focusing on underappreciated styles, they made Saison, Oyster Stout and Belgian-style Golden Ale and delivered it to 7 accounts out of their cars.
HenHouse Brewing Company’s intention has always been to make beer that you can be proud to drink. We are honored to have poured beer from this great brewery since the day we opened.
Stop by tomorrow and try this amazing brewery!

Last Friday, a Federal judge ruled in our favor, slapping MillerCoors with sanctions in our ongoing lawsuit to protect our Stone name and trademark. This is not just a huge step in this particular lawsuit, but another win for independent brewers everywhere. We will not be intimidated, and we will not back down. We know who is in the right here, and we think MillerCoors does as well, which is why we believe they were withholding damaging evidence.

While this is a big win for the good guys, the larger lawsuit still continues. We’re immensely grateful for all the support we’ve received from the independent craft beer community (breweries and fans alike) and we’ll be sure to keep you posted as more updates come in.
