Description
Propolis was established in June of 2012 with the sole intent to produce high-quality handcrafted herbal ales inspired by Old World tradition, local resources and the rhythms of nature. Our ales are brewed with various wild-crafted herbs and are seasonally based. Many of our Ales blend several styles and are hard to classify by traditional beer guidelines. We are primarily inspired by the farmhouse tradition of France and Belgium, as well as Old World Ales that no longer exist. We are artists and scientists at heart and we aspire to challenge the norm.

Bottle from the October DC RB Tasting. Poured a kind of hazy, dull yellow color with a small, wispy white head. Aroma was light strawberries. Light cab franc notes, light barrel. Light, crisp, and easy to drink. Pretty delicate. Nice.

2018 bottle. Dull, flat brown with no head. Had the vinous note, with some dark berry notes and a hint of oak. Deep berry fruit, mellow acidity, lots of wood. Flat - no carbo to pull this along, so you get a flat wood thing and acetic. The fruit, though, that really helps round out the palate.
