Description
Fort George Brewery + Public House sits on the original settlement site of Fort Astoria, founded in 1811. The oldest US settlement west of the Rockies, Fort Astoria was the Pacific Fur Company's primary trading post in the Northwest. Fort George opened its doors to Astoria as both a brewery and a public house, and that desire to serve the community continues to this day. The brewers and pub staff here share a common goal, to create a welcoming space where anyone in town can pull up a stool and enjoy a pint and a bite to eat. We take pride in our house-made offerings and our hospitality, and we’re always looking for improvements that bring us one step closer to perfection. It’s a goal Sisyphus could appreciate, even if he doesn’t have as much fun pushing that rock as we do rolling those kegs. And that’s why we like to call Fort George beer the best beer you’ve had today. Tomorrow it will only be better.

Aroma has notes of toffee, cinnamon, nutmeg, dark bread, nuts, citrus. Taste is sweet with a bitter edge, finishing very dry. Chestnuts really come to the forefront after warming in the glass for a few minutes, as does the orange peel. Interesting spin on the American barleywine.

16oz can from Tavour. Pale, hazy yellow pour, fine fizzy head. Aroma is grapefruit peel and lemon rind. Taste adds a touch of pineapple to the aforementioned citrus, zesty, tangy, leaves a buzz on the palate.
