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.

Exceptional. Great balance, mellow acidity, tangerine, lemon, nips of pine, fresh grass, soft funk, citric bite. Mighty drinkable.

Bottle shared at Anti-Carnavalstasting 2026. Clear golden color, small white head. Aroma and flavor are no where near a saison. This is a sour. Plain and simple. And a pretty sad one as well. One dimensional, sour, I'm disappointed. SARA used to be on top of their game but this is way way way off.

Bottle shared at Anti-Carnavalstasting 2026. Clear golden color, average sized white head. Smell and taste are very sour, sharp even, lightly greenish plant like, yet not in any offensive way, however the beer is quite sharp. Hmm. Unbalanced imo.

Bottle. Pours hazy yellow orange, small off white head, decent lacing. Aroma is herbal, gin, vermouth, bugs, hint of stonefruit, lime. Flavor is light tart, light plus funk. Fairly strong barrel character. Medium body, soft carbonation. Interesting.

16oz can from Tavour. Clear golden pour, small head fades away. Grainy, sweet, biscuity aroma. Taste is bready, grainy, sweet leading to a gentle bitterness that slowly reveals itself at the finish. Very robust and flavorful. I wasn't expecting to enjoy the his as much as I did.

Aromas are kind of an odd mix of slightly old resin, green grapes, white wine and malt. Flavors are somewhat similar to nose but much better and lean a bit sweet. Add in some citrus which stands out. Full-bodied with good carbonation. Good beer.
