Description
We brew unique beers, one barrel at a time
We also offer wines, hard ciders, a locally focused snack menu, and a generally laid back Wisconsin tavern vibe. In fact, the only thing we don’t offer are the answers to life’s greatest questions... although some say they can be found at the bottom of a glass.

Tap at One Barrel. Murky unfiltered amber-brown body. Off-white/beige head. Amber and rye monstrosity, the barrel throws it way over the top. Sweet, sugary, full bodied. Rich and malty. Very sweet. Whiskey forward, huge beer.

Sampled from the tap at the brewery. Pours a hazy earthy amber with a tan head that dissipates to the edges and laces. Aroma has notes of oak and earthy citrus with and earthy grain backbone. Flavor combines oak and earthy citrus with grains underlying.

Opaque brown black color, small short-lived tan head and a little lace. Aroma is roast and resiny hops. Flavor is a lot Like Nose, mostly dry with a hint of sweetness upfront but largely very bitter and with a long bitter finish.

This is pretty much just straightforward beer uninspiring and okay. Appearance’s a clear yellow, small short-lived head, no lace. Aroma and flavor are about the same: beer. Okay body and finish.

Draft: Amber-gold with an off-white head. Toasty grain, caramel scent. Light caramel malt with a mild leafy bitter..... Fairly boring.

Bottle: Nearly clear gold with a VERY tall, persistent white head.....poured in a Kolsch glass...just funnels the foam right up. Sweet lemon, grain scent. Creamy, grain malt, sweet lemon flavour. A little lactic, but OK.... I prefer these to be a little sharper and not as sweet.

Tap at One Barrel. 13oz pint. Steady off-white head on top of a brightish red-orange-amber body. Kind of awkward earthy amber toffee touched aroma. Really amber malt forward and sweet, complete amateur production. Pretty much a poorly made strong amber, quite unimpressive. Odd, approaching sour tones. The aroma keeps getting worse. Poor offering, needs work.
