Cascade Brewing has been a pioneer in the sour beer renaissance since 2006 and is the proud innovator of the Northwest Sour Ale. We are, by nature, the definition of artisanal brewing: we’re not bound by stylistic guidelines, just our own imagination and the ingredients we can access. Our distinctive sour beer blends feature fruit forward, barrel-aged ales that offer a complex array of flavors derived from Northwest grown ingredients, with each release capturing the unique subtleties of that year’s growing season. Our beers are brewed at our original brewery in Southwest Portland, then blended and aged at our nearby Blending House, which holds more than 1,300 oaks barrels and nine foudre tanks.

Hazy orange golden beer, no head. Aroma of intense peach, apricot, yeast. Taste of sour apricot, peach, funk, easy to drink.

Aus der Flasche (Vintage 2014) im 2024-10 getrunken. Diese braun, trübe Ale kommt mit einer wunderbaren Kombination aus Gewürzaromen daher. Dazu kommt ein tolles malzige, süße Aromen die durch die Fassreifung im Rumfass ausbalanciert wurden. Der Alkohol ist perfekt eingebunden. Wunderbar!

Notes from May 2010 One of many bottles sent to me by Batman & Robin while I was incapacitated at home. Thanks guys. Into my Ommegang Anniversary glass. A turbid, rusty brown color. Just a bit of greasy sheen on the airy, low-clinging, khaki-ish colored head. Smell is a mix of soaking wood chips, red wine vinegar, & pickle juice. Somewhat medicinal. It could of been better. The fruit was there, but besides some pits & skins, it wasn't the dominate smell. It tasted like it spent too long in the barrel. More tannins then even some harsher red wines I've had. Incredibly oaky. Too much oak really. Lemons. Very tart, edgy lemons. Grape/cherry/apple skins. It tasted like cherries too, yes. Throat clenching, acidic cherries. A sweet & sour mix, mostly focusing on the briny, sour bitterness, & not so much on any ripe fruit that I was hoping for. Feel was all wood. Dry to the point you need a lager chaser. Carbonation was pretty sturdy, but it didn't need much to cut the muddy body. I guess I was expecting something juicier. Dry, tart, & sour is good combination at times, but all the puckering made my enjoyment of it minimal. Though once it became warmer & fell a bit flat, it was actually somewhat easier to enjoy.

Can from Total Wine in Vacaville, CA. Pours the color of watermelon juice. Aroma is mixed but raspberry is detectable. Not quite med body. It's dry and sourish - a bit tart. Wood notes. Flavor is quite complex. Another good one from Cascade.

22.05.2024, 12 oz can @ hotel room in Flåm:
Nice fizzy-creamy longlasting head, hazy orangy color. Aroma is slightly sweet sour-ish fruity, baked sour apples, flowers, light malts, apple pie. Taste is slightly dry sour-ish fruity, apple peel, sour apple candy, soda powder, bark, minerals, fruit salt, leafs, paper, apple cores. Medium bitterness, slightly harsh sour-ish fruity mouthfeel. Nice aroma...
