We’re pleased to introduce Elements of Composition, a blend of beer and friendship spanning the course of years. In February 2016, brewers from De Garde Brewing, Jester King Brewery, and Sante Adairius Rustic Ales in met in Tillamook, Oregon to blend beer from each of their respective breweries. Three year old, 100% spontaneously fermented beer from De Garde was blended with two year old, 100% spontaneously fermented beer from Jester King, and mature, foudre aged saison from Sante Adairius. The result is a beer distinct from, but not greater than, the sum of its parts.

750 ml bottle, blend #3, Feb 2018. Dark golden, medium hazy body, with a small yellowish head. Aroma of green apple, citrus, wood, moderate funk, some almond. Tastes similar. Medium, slick mouthfeel, with a moderate carbonation. Finishes medium dry, wooden, a bit sweet, with green apple skin, some citrus, some almond. Tasty. Quite straight, but very well balanced, with lovely funk, fruit and wood notes. Really crisp stuff. Score: 8 / 4 / 8 / 4 / 16

750ml bottle during Kump's smashed week. Pours a hazy golden with a white head. Aroma is fruity with some strange funky notes. Taste is a bit dry, rustic, barrel notes. Interesting.

Poured from a 750 ml bottle. Aroma is nice and fruity with citrus and pineapple notes. Hints of oak with some nice funk to it. Light earthiness. Pours a hazy, golden color with a small, thick, white head that recedes to the center where it lingers. Medium light lacing and small legs. Flavor is somewhat acidic with nice fruit notes. Moderate fruitiness with pineapple and citrus. Light oak notes with hints of white wine character. Light earthiness and a bit of musty notes. Mouthfeel is medium light bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a really nice beer. Solid balanced funk, acidity and oak notes.
