But wait... what does that mean?
First off, we do not add laboratory cultured yeast to ferment our beer. We simply cool the wort naturally in a coolship. Amazing yeast & microflora are all around us! That's why we're in Tillamook!
After the wort cools, we transfer everything to oak barrels (some big, some small, some medium). Each beer takes it's own time in barrels to finish fermenting.
Most of our beers take anywhere from 6 months to 5+ years in barrels before we package them.
Every bottle is naturally conditioned and ready to be enjoyed when we release it. Although the beer can age, please note the fruit and hop additions will dissipate with extended time.
But most importantly, we hope you enjoy!
Cheers!

Sample at the roost. Whoa. Smells legit. Leathery and horsey, lemon rind, some herbal notes. An interesting salinity. Leathery and horsey. Nettles. Vitamin C tablets. Tart and dry. Lacks some complexity and finishes a bit fast, but well made.

Not quite as good as the Reflet. Good bretta lambic-like finish. Tart and snappy. Pours hazy orange with good head and lacing. Sharp grapefruit and apricot. Tap at Snally.

Pours orange with good head and lacing. Apricot, sour plum. Tart finish. Great balance. Nice stuff. I think this is the one I had at Snally.

750ml bottle at share. cloudy golden pour, soft, bubby head. Aroma is stone fruit, peaches with a hint of rum. Taste is tart, peaches, the normal de Garde funk with some light sugary, rum notes.

0,2l from tap at Mikkeller Baghaven, Copenhagen. Amber hazy color, small white head. Smells funky, earthy, citric, wood, herbal, juniper. Medium to full body, no carbonation. Tastes herbal, gin, juniper, spices, peppery, bit flowery, some oak. Finishes lightly dry and lightly sour with notes of juniper, oak and pepper. Nice one rather intense on the juniper like notes, but I quite like it
