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.

Bottle - thanks to Mike for the share! Pours hazy golden with a small white head that sticks around and laces well. Aroma is light lemon, yeast, funk, perhaps oak, pretty simple overall. Flavor is the same, not overwhelmingly complex, but medium tart, some funkiness, juicy with a touch of initial sweetness and a dry finish. Light body and champagnelike carbonation makes this one very easy to drink; almost a cross between a berliner and a gueuze.

Bottle - thanks to Mike for the share! Pours opaque brown with a small tan head and decent lacing. Aroma is interesting with notes of tart cherry, roastiness, and oak. Flavor is the same, with oaky and roasty notes mixing quite well with the tart and bit of funk. Light tart, light sweet, with light astringence from the time spent in the wood. Perhaps some cigarette action going on as well. Medium body. Interesting beer.

Tap. Pours hazy golden witha medium creamy white head and great lacing. Aroma is citra, citrus tropical, a bit of cat piss. Flavor is the same, very light sweet, light plus bitter, bitter finish. Medium light body, mineral mouthfeel. Reminiscent of hill farmstead. A little too much bettering hops to compete with zombie dust, but pretty good.
