BARREL No. 3
Released March 2015
Each year we are inspired to
produce a Whiskey Barrel-Aged
feral Stout that complements the
character of the freshly-emptied
barrels and our farmhouse yeast
blend. This time we were fortunate
to acquire Colorado Whiskey barrels
that had notes of sweet caramel,
robust oak, and crisp Rocky
Mountain water.

Dark chocolate, dark cherries, and
dark malts combine to deliver this
homage to the chocolate cherry
“griottes” of the Franche-Comté
region. Bourdeaux wine barrel aging
rounds out the heavy roast and
contributes vinous flavors that
support the tart fruit notes of the
deep red cherries. Take your
toungue on a decadent journey with
each sip.

Released April 2015
The tiny red drupes of the Longhorn
Sumac are crushed to release
flavors of lightly floral bright citrus
often used to elevate a variety of
drinks and foods. The vivid acidic
notes of this uncommon spice
combine with the Leipzig Gose
(pronounced Gose-uh) sea-salted
beer style to inspire this tart and
savory golden ale. Unusually
refreshing!

SALTED MANGO CHILI SOUR
Released May 2015
To reveal the intricate hidden
character of Mexico’s Ataúlfo mango
cultivar, also called the honey
mango, we’ve cut their natural
sweetness by adding tropical heat
from habanero chillies, tart acidity
from our white wine barrel-aged
sour golden ale, and complex
minerality from sea salt. There’s a
message from the mango in every
bottle.

DRY HOPPED DARK SOUR ALE
Released May 2015
Inspired by the hoppy Cascadian
Dark Ales of the Pacific Northwest,
this American Oak barrel aged blend
weighed in at a hefty 108 IBUs on
brew day, and was then generously
dry-hopped with Washington grown
Citra, Simcoe, and Centennial just
before bottling. The resulting beer is
equal parts mysterious darkness
and revealing light. This is definitely
NOT a Black IPA; is there even such
a thing?

Each tamarind pod holds a sticky
sweet and sour fruit pulp that
contains a complex flavor
combination reminiscent of sun-
dried apricots, lemon zest, and dark
rich dates. To complement the tang
of the tamarind, we’ve added a hint
of lime, and paired it with our wine
barrel-aged sour red ale. The result
is both refreshingly balanced and
deceptively decadent.
