Description
At Modist, we push past traditional brewing by embracing creativity and unconstrained experimentation.
This starts with the approach to recipe development taken by our Head Brewer, Keigan. Contrary to starting with a style guideline in mind, then moving forward – he starts with a flavor and experience in mind, then works backward. And since we’ve decided to not be bound by style guidelines, he’s free to use whatever ingredients in any amount with whatever technique he wants to create a new beer experience.
To enable this philsophy and to enhance our creativity, we created a custom built brewhouse that allows us to make the beers we want to make. It’s centered around the region’s first mash filter. This piece of equipment allows us to use any grain in any percentage – and do so while using a fraction of the water and energy of a traditional brewery.

Aromas are a mild blend of citrus, weed, skunk and wet grain. Flavors are somewhat similar to nose, good balance between bitter, sweet and carbonation. Clean, satisfying with the light sweet finish.

Sampled from the tap at the brewery. Pours a slightly hazy gold with a slight orange hue and a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has citrus and citrus rind with some mango and a touch of papaya supporting. Flavor has earthy and dank mango with citrus rind and a bit of sweet onion underlying.
