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.

Tastes jammy, Marmelade, stone fruits, apricots, peaches, bit spices, hints of berry, lightly leathery/almost smoky. Finishes lightly dry and light to medium sour with notes of Marmelade, apricots and spices. Very nice one, bit on the clean side, very good

Bottle, 750 ml, shared at the charity tasting at Die Freunderlwirtschaft. Intensive yellow orange with white head. Intensive peaches in aroma, much more on taste, medium to high sourness, juicy, funk, citrus. Very intense.

Pretty golden color, clear, small unstable white head. Malty and hoppy, clean, rustic, biscuity with a faint tart lime note. Like a kellerbier with some extra hops. Very nice.

Draught Huge, dense yellowish head, stable over hazy orangey-yellow beer, well-carbonated into lacerings. Very fresh aroma, hoppy, herbs, fresh green leaves, citruspeel, lunaria, fruity esters and unripe fruit. Lunaria, watered-down fresh citrusjuice, mango, fresh green leaves and herbs. Rather light body, well-carbonated; long-lasting flavours. Good IPA (on the edge of DIPA), if not spectacular.

Happen to have a bit of Fredriksdal cherry wine from earlier left, so poured a touch. Really clear on the aftertaste, but a real elegance and brightness in the SARA that is overwhelmed by the wine next to it. Clean stone fruit, smooth, elegant funk.
