Craft beer drinkers are caught up in a delicious whirlwind of flavors, aromas, and raise-the-bar-push-the-envelope beer styles offered by American craft brewers. We at Metropolitan would like to invite a little balance to the party. The smooth, mellow flavors and dry finish of German lagers are the foundation of Metropolitan's beers. Of course, we can't help but twist things up in our very own way. Toasty malts, spicy hops, and a ferocious DIY ethic motivate us to brew beer. Wait no longer. Drink one now. If you feel as inspired as we do, let us know. Soon, we'll tell you exactly where you can enjoy Metropolitan's beers. Meanwhile, allow us to make some introductions... |
 If malt and hops are the two poles of brewing, this beer is the gently spinning sweet spot between them. First, you’ll notice the spicy aromas of Perle and Hallertau hops. Then - wipe the foam off the tip of your nose - dive into the toasty flavors of Vienna and Munich malts. Dynamo starts strong and finishes crisp and smooth. The balanced flavors, aromas, and even the coppery-red tones of this beer go great with everything. Fear no pairing. The best time to enjoy Dynamo is when you’re thirsty. Dynamo Copper Lager goes great with pizza, neighborhood block parties, spring rolls, first dates, football games, whiskey, tapas, the Sunday newspaper, late-night burritos, veggie omelets, business lunches, grilled mushrooms, pretzels, political debate, corn-on-the-cob, classic sci-fi flicks, mixed greens, campfires, salmon, billiards, cherry pie, rock shows, pumpernickel, salsa, grand openings, peanuts, sewing bees, extra sharp cheddar cheese, and holidays. Original Gravity: 13.6 Plato |
Flywheel Bright Lager goes great with hot dogs, guitar jams, stir fry, bowling, taco salad, house warmings, baked potatoes, Saturday morning cartoons, tequila, gouda cheese, karaoke, bagel & schmear, Euchre, fresh berries, asparagus, 16-inch softball, sushi, darts, Pad Thai, family reunions, pb&j, flan, romantic weekend getaways, garlic bread, pay raises, nachos, baby showers, fondue, and Frisbee golf. Original Gravity: 13 Plato |

It's a great time to be alive! American beer is experiencing a renaissance that started with homebrewers in the early '70's when hand-crafted ales and lagers brewed with simple, yet quality ingredients burbled and fermented in the homes of beer enthusiasts. A blend of Old World inspiration, creative license, and a DIY ethic gave birth to American craft beer as we know and love it today. It's easy to see why the finest and most innovative beers in the world are brewed right here.
