DIAMONDS,
FUR COAT,
CHAMPAGNE
Diamonds, Fur Coat,
Champagne is named after
a song by the 70’s NYC nowave/minimal band Suicide.
A tart wheat ale fermented
with lactobacillus. Bitterness,
alcohol and residual sugar are
very low allowing the late-boil
addition of elderflowers and
fresh grapefruit peel, and dryhopping with Hallertau Blanc to
shine through. The recipe was
written to mimic some of the
floral and citrus character of a
brut Champagne.

BEING THERE
Being There is named after
one of our favorite movies
by the same name. The
movie Being There was
Peter Sellers’ last film role
and takes place in the
Shaw neighborhood of
Washington, DC where the
Right Proper brewpub is
located.
This bready, floral, unfiltered
beer is inspired by age-old
German tradition. The beer
is matured while the yeast is
still active, producing a light
effervescence with balanced
malt and hop flavors present in
the dry finish.

The name Raised by Wolves
is a play on the botanical
name for hops, Humulus
Lupulus, meaning “ground
wolf”.
A medium-bodied, aromatic,
dry-hopped pale ale. Not quite
an India pale ale, nor a typical
American pale ale, we brew
Raised by Wolves to highlight the
rich flavors and aromas of hops
rather than their bitterness. This
beer has aromas reminiscent of
lush tropical, citrus and stone
fruits with a juicy body that you
can sink your teeth into.

Haxan is named after
a super trippy Danish/
Swedish silent era
documentary about the

This strong and full-bodied
Baltic-leaning porter has
dominant flavors of coffee and
chocolate frosting. Try this beer
with chocolate and peanut butter
cookies or a bowl of vanilla ice
cream.

[FOEDER FERMENTED]
A foeder (pronounced FOOD-er) is a large wooden vat - in our case, 45 hectolitres - made out of French oak.
Foeders allow a slow ingress of oxygen into the beer, which offers a thriving environment for wild yeast strains.
Right Proper Brewing Company has 3 foeders, two of which housed one vintage of white wine,
and one that housed one vintage of red wine.

WHITE BICYCLES
Being a witbier or ‘white
beer’ we decided to name
White Bicycles after the
first free bicycle share
started in the Netherlands
in the mid 1960’s by a
group of anarchists.
This rustic witbier is brewed with
black limes and Mandarina Bavaria
hops and fermented in our 45 hl
French oak foeder with our house
mixed-culture of wild yeasts. Citrusy,
delightfully dry and refreshing.
The Brettanomyces employed in
the fermentation process produce
a bone-dry refreshing take on a
traditional witbier.

“The Lubitsch Touch” is a
phrase used to describe
the unique style and
cinematic trademarks
of German film director
Ernst Lubitsch of the
early 1900’s.
This pale beer is brewed with a blend
of both beech wood and cherry wood
smoked malts. The Lubitsch Touch is
very light and refreshing take on a
German rauchbier, with just a touch of
balanced smoke in the finish.
A nonsense word
invented by Edward
Lear in his children’s
poem “The Owl and the
Pussycat.”
If a brewer working on a farm in Belgium
made an IPA, it might taste something
like this. This brett IPA is medium
bodied but light on your palate. A touch
of acidity dances playfully amongst
notes of tropical and citrus fruits and
fresh cut flowers.

The name Ornithology
is a re-imagining of our

same recipe as Ornette,
Ornithology is fermented

This wheat-based ale is akin to the
farmhouse brewing tradition from
southern Belgium. Lighter and more
delicate than most saisons, Ornithology
is the same recipe as our popular
Ornette served at the Right Proper Shaw
Brewpub & Kitchen, only it is fermented
with our house mixed-culture of wild
yeasts in 45 hl French oak foeders that
add a rustic complexity to the delicate
flavors and aromas found in Ornette.
