Flora is the wine barrel-aged version of Florence, our grandfather’s sister, as well as the name of our Farmstead® wheat ale. In her honor, we fill French oak wine barrels with Florence and allow the beer to mature in the presence of our resident microflora. After extended aging, a beautifully complex beer emerges; Florence becomes Flora.

750ml hand bottle pours a hazy, bright yellow with a cloudy, white head. Nose is nice, floral, perfume, grass, white grapes, a little citrus. Flavor is sweet, malty but without being sugary, chalky, wheat, grass, a little chardonnay. Medium bodied, chalky finish. Well balanced and understated.

Growler. Cloudy pale yellow, medium white head. Aroma of pineapple, citrus. Taste is softly sour, lemon peel, malt, light spice. Reminiscent of Russian River.
