How we brew it.

Every powerhouse has a main line: the one cable everything else hangs off. Every taproom needs a beer like that. Mainline is brewed with BC pilsner malt and a small charge of German hops, then left cold and alone for five weeks so it comes out clear without a filter.

Why we call it Mainline

The main line was the feeder cable that carried the station's power out to the valley.

Stainless fermenters in the cold cellar under the powerhouse, condensation beading on the steel

Either side of it on a flight.

Mainline pours first on a flight, so nothing lighter comes before it.
