We're pleased to introduce Fearless Traveler, our collaboration with Cervecería Granizo in Quilpué, Chile! Fearless Traveler is a farmhouse ale brewed with Merkén and refermented with fruit from the prickly pear cactus. Merkén is a blend of ground smoked chilis, toasted coriander and salt.

Fearless Traveler was brewed in October when we were visited in Texas by our good friends Óscar and Germán from Granizo. They brought the Merkén with them from Chile, and we sourced the prickly pear from Texas. Óscar and Germán represent what's best in brewing when it comes to international friendship and warmth. It was an honor to host them and call them friends.

Fearless Traveler is 6.5% alcohol by volume and was naturally conditioned in bottles and kegs.

From tap at BeerTemple, Amsterdam. Aroma is farmhouse funk with agave, bitter citrus peel, cactus, and pale malt. Tart and sourish flavour with some bitterness. Medium body. Curious, funny and eccentric Saison.

Dullish with a slight haze. On the nose it’s mostly yeasty, with a little pale malt. Tart, unusual.

Draught at Darby's Gastown, Vancouver
Hazy to cloudy dark blond colour, compact head. I expected cactus pear, I get light agave/tequila joining a quite good farmhouse ale, which is also sourish and vaguely citrusy. Pleasant.
