Kvass ale with lavender and spicebush.

Collaboration with Arizona Wilderness Brewing Co.

Hearth & Field was brewed with our friend Nick Pauley, wood cellar manager at Arizona Wilderness Woodnotes Cellar.

We mashed this kvass-inspired beer with over 140 pounds of home-baked, sourdough ciabatta, a good grip of Ohio barley, and some Arizona Sonoran Wheat. Crystal hops came from Ohio Valley Hops in Maineville, OH.

We co-fermented this beer with saison yeast, sourdough starter, and house mixed-cultures, in stainless steel.

Before packaging, we conditioned Hearth & Field on Arizona-grown Provence Lavender, and Ohio Spicebush berries.

Pours clear gold with a small white head. Lavender dominates the aroma. The flavor is of lavender, lemon, bread, mild malt and spice. Interesting.

Sample at the brewpub as part of Ohio Brew Week on 07/18/2025, during the 10th Anniversary celebration. Clear golden color with a medium thin white head that recedes steadily to a film. Short strings of lace. Floral and fruity aroma with malt undertones. Light body with flavors of fruity yeast, lavender, biscuit malt and a touch of hops. The finish is fruity with a yeast and lavender aftertaste. Above average overall.
