Description
We focus our attention on brewing rustic, unfiltered, aromatic beers that are approachable and unique. We pull from our home brewing background to build beers that pay homage to tradition, but break new ground in American brewing techniques and flavors by blurring the line between beer and wine. We are brewers of big ideas in very small batches.

Tap. Pours unclear mahogany, minimal head or lacing. Aroma is boozy, bourbon, oak, vanilla, toffee. Flavor is less boozy than Aroma, nice blend of dark sugars, oak tannin, vanilla. Almost a jack Daniel's thing going, which is strangely a positive when it comes to barrel aging. Medium body.

16 oz can. Aroma is bready, peppery, herbal. Pours hazy pale golden with a two finger fluffy off-white head with great retention. Taste has a nice herbal bitterness backed by unobtrusive bready malt sweetness. Crisp, clean, crushable. Kind of damn near perfect Pilsner.
