Brown ale brewed with toasted hickory bark, juniper branches, and sweet clover. Smooth, malty backbone complemented by wild spices from our property that give notes of pine, vanilla, and toasted marshmallow.

Always far off the standards for beer. A nose dive has obvious wood twigs in it. Slightly smokey taste. Can I claim a bit of sahti in it? Maybe. More smoke and a feeling of chewing bark. Always mysterious but interesting.
