About
Pucker Up & Join the Sour Revolution

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.

Blueberry from Cascade Brewing

8/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8
On tap at Uno Chicago Grill in Hamilton, NJ. Translucent purple color. Small pink ring. Fragrant aroma of sweet blueberries and cinnamon. Tart berry flavor upfront. Slightly vinous in nature. The immense blueberry flavor dominates the palate and is balanced nicely by the light maltiness and oakiness from the extended aging.

Northwest Flanders from Cascade Brewing

7.5/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 6 Overall 8
Pour is a deep dark red, almost black with a large mocha head. Aroma is cherries and oak with a little musty basement. Flavor is cherry and chocolate with red wine vinegar and some damp musty old basement. Tartness is on the back end but nothing overwhelming. Sours are really not my things but this had tons of other flavor profiles and the sourness was in the medium range. Perfect size can for this style.
