Description
Our philosophy is to brew beer with the adventurous craft beer drinker in mind—focusing on hand-crafted, small batches of beer, using local, seasonal and organic ingredients as much as possible.

Our beers are influenced mostly by Belgian and American craft styles, but the addition of premium ingredients such as fruits, spices or wild yeast strains sometimes causes the beers to defy traditional categories. Our barrel aging program features a wide variety of beers aged in wine and spirits barrels, ranging from a Rye barrel-aged Mexican Chocolate Stout to a wild yeast-fermented Saison aged on Missouri wine grapes in French oak wine barrels. We strive to always achieve balance with each of our recipes, making our beers exceptional with food.

Bottle @ Brad’s house Minneapolis, courtesy of jcnielsen. Pours a clear reddish orange appearance with a light brown head. Nutty, caramel, toasty malty, a touch fruity, a bit bready aroma. Somewhat spicy, nutty, caramel/chocolate, a bit yeasty flavor. Interesting but nothing super special.

Bottle @ Brad’s house Minneapolis, courtesy of jcnielsen. Pours a touch hazy, orange appearance with an off white head. Fairly grapefruity, grassy, a touch piney hoppy, orange citrusy, a bit yeasty aroma. A touch funky, barnyard, somewhat spicy yeasty, somewhat bready, somewhat citrusy flavor.

Belgian Beer Fest Boston. OK, I wouldn’t recognize a pluot if I tripped over one. But this beer is much more fruity than your average tripel, with plums in the nose and taste. Not overly sweet. Very nice.
