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!

Draft at the Sovereign. Poured a orange color with a medium sized white head. Aroma was light woody notes, resin dankness. Funky notes, with some light sweetness.

Sample pour at Sovereign is a clear, orange with some fizzy white head. Nose pops with both the green and vinous hop and grapefruit and funk. Oaky. Oaky leads in the mouth along with lemon. Felt plasticky at first but got better as it opened. Band aid and funk. Big grapefruit. Finishes long and dry. Solid. 8 4 8 4 15. Clearly new world but well made.
