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!

750ml bottle pours out hazy golden topped with a white head. Nose is nice tart green apples some grapes and stone fruit. Taste is more of the nice fruit mix plenty barrel tart funk notes.

Grapefruit, probably a little of the plastic nimbleprop mentioned, though I like it a little more than he appears to have. Oak hangs out with you for a while in the end, comes off pretty sharp. Golden pour with OK head. Lots of sourness, some astringency in the finish. Unripe orange. Tap at Dominion Wine and Beer.

750mL bottle at Side Project Cellar, 2/14/24. Clear golden, small covering of white head. Nose is killer, tropical fruit, lots of Brett. Juicy, dry, biscuits, leather, very fruity and Bretty. In the mouth it's a bit more pedestrian with soft malt some biscuit and light lactic character. Wine, oak, kumquat, unripe guava. Weirdly unexciting.

Draft at The Sovereign. Poured a golden yellow color with a medium sized white head. Aroma was light tartness, some sweet malts, moderate acid. Really pleasant stuff.
