About
The Barbarian Way
“Why the f**k not?”
That’s our motto around here. Ancient barbarians never bothered with pesky concepts like rules or limits, and neither do we. If we (or our customers) come up with a completely bonkers idea, we’re all in.
The coolest part of our brewery is that we can do whatever we want. All it takes are a few untamed minds, a little elbow grease … and maybe a few pints of beer. When you give civilization the finger, true innovation happens. Barbarian’s delicious, complex, artisan ales and lagers are a godless mashup of old world traditions and new world flavors.

South Beach of Miami, 1986. The engine purring like a tiger in Crockett’s white Ferrari Testarossa. The scents of coconut and strawberry tingle your nostrils with pure ecstasy to send you on your journey into the DANGER SUNSET.
We’ve pulled the 2022 Danger Sunset sour from the cellar and have it on draft at our Garden City Taproom! We also have
500ml Bottles, t-shirts, mineral washed hoodies and crew neck sweatshirts available at both locations!
We have a VERY Limited stock on the sweatshirts, so get them while you can.
The Danger logo was created by artist @adamjrosenlund .

Back by popular demand (after aging in tequila barrels for a year) is our DESERT BLOOM Sour! This spontaneously fermented Golden Sour was aged in freshly poured tequila barrels and finished with 200 pounds of real prickly pear juice.
We also heard y’all’s demands from last year and made a bigger batch, so we now have draft AND bottles available at both Barbarian locations starting today.
