Can you believe it. 25 years since the Ruck became the Ruck in 1998.

We thank you all for enjoying The Ruck for all of these years, and we couldn’t be more excited that we’ve been able to do so for 25. We proudly stand tall as an established member of our Troy community, and hope to provide the joy (and beers) that we have for another 25 more!

Our friends at Sloop are helping us throw a party, with a loaded Sloop Tap Takeover to celebrate a quarter century!

Join us on Friday, January 13th and take a look at what we’ll be serving up:

Juice Bomb - 6.5% ABV
A hazy, golden, unfiltered IPA.The low bitterness and late hopping showcase the citrusy, juicy notes of American hops. A blast of tropical aroma is followed by a resiny and balanced flavor. Juice bomb features all the aspects and nuances of full hop flavor, not just bitterness — providing an upfront but easy drinking beer.

Coco Baked - 6.5% ABV
”The latest in our line of half-baked stouts, Coco Baked is a deep, slick, smooth, full bodied stout brewed with oatmeal, lactose, and totally toasted coconut.”

Sauer Peach 4.3% ABV
A berlinerweisse style ale with the tartness of a sour beer and the balance of real peaches. The pale and wheat malts give it a cloudy appearance and smooth flavor. The Sauer Peach is fermented with real peaches to provide a sweet and refreshing flavor great for summer days or to brighten a winter night — and the sour lactic culture provides a tart finish to balance out the sweetness of the peach.

Bomb The Mountain - 6.2% ABV
Flaked oats & flaked wheat give this hazy IPA a soft & snowy mouthfeel, complemented w/ a sub-zero blend of frozen citra cryo & german amarillo hops.

American Pilsner - 5% ABV
Classic American Pils delivers a lightly sweet malt profile on the front, which allows the strikingly clean fermentation profile to shine through, finishing on a dry, crisp note.

25 years of The Ruck! Join us along with Sloop to celebrate an achievement we are so very proud of! Cheers!
