Description
Fremont Brewing was born of our love for our home and history as well as the desire to prove that beer made with the finest local ingredients – organic when possible --, is not the wave of the future but the doorway to beer's history. Starting a brewery in the midst of the Great Recession is clearly an act of passion. We invite you to come along with us and enjoy that passion -- because beer matters.

16 oz. can, pours a lightly hazed blonde with a medium white head. Aroma brings out plenty of grassy hops, crunchy crackery malts, and straw. Flavour is dry, biting, and fairly bitter, with a nice grassy hop bitterness upfront, some husky malts, and a crisp crackery finish. A bit too astringent without the hop vibrance but very nicely balanced and drinkable.

12 ounce can from Tavour. Jet black pour. Frothy tan head. Roasted malt aroma hints at baker’s chocolate and dark roast coffee. Bittersweet roasted malt flavor upfront. Notes of dark chocolate, espresso and charred wood. Medium bodied, but intensely flavorful. Dry, bitter finish has a hint of smokiness.

Can from Tavour. Pours dark brn/blk with a lofty tan head that foamed and did other things. Aroma of burnt malt, coffee, chocolate and more. Approaching full body. Almost dry and definitely bitter. Flavor matches the aroma. Amazing flavor.

Can from Tavour. Pours clear, light bright gold with a slight transient white head. Aroma of grass/spice with some mixed citrus and tropicals. Med body or so. Fairly dry. Decently bitter. Malt is barely discernible. Flavor is grapefruit, melon and grass/spice. And even more. Good stuff. Mayhap more IPA impact than pilsner impact.

Canned 2/19, drunk 7/6/25.
Dark. Probably clear. Large, frothy, lighter-tan head, good retention.
Big fruity coconut with gently spicy bourbon and low coffee/roast. Dark chocolate, lots of nuttiness, light vanilla and definite graham cracker-like character. Not boozey. I'm a tough sell on coconut, but this is authentic and doesn't bludgeon you to death with it.
Nutty, fruity and coconutty with a healthy bourbon spice that appears later in the sip. Lingering pepper, light oak and tons of lush fruitiness. Again, low coffee, but that's fine with me. Coconut still fairly strong, but it works nicely against the bourbon and fudgey malts. Sweet graham cracker, vanilla and marshmallow lingering. Probably jumped the gun on opening this by about 3-6 months, but it's still soft, supple, comforting, flavorful and fruity with no booze or raw/unfinished sugar. Just maybe a bit big, burly and intense yet.

Coca-Cola colour, small off-white head. Aroma is chocolaty, roasted and mild toasted tones with a bit of rye to it too. Flavour is toasted, some rye, chocolaty and mildly ashy elements.

375ml (thx, Josh!) shared with Alex @ Ryan's deck enjoying a finally arrived warm days. 2023 release.
Aroma: nice American oak, fruity, some nice sophisticated sweetness, noticeable kinda smoky spirit.
Taste: along the same lines, on the thin side for almost 16% ABV. Probably because of that spirit is even more noticeable. It is quite smooth, though, and sophisticated.
Overall: pretty good, but I expected a little bit more from it.
