We have another great b**r to welcome the chilly autumn weather upon us!

Every Red Heart Shines Toward The Red Sun is a true-to-style Doppelbock L***r brewed with the finest German malt & hops. This Doppelbock exudes the quintessential "liquid bread" character the style is known for. Expect prominent impressions of fresh baked bread crust, brown sugar shortbread cookies and slightly sweet malt.

GJÆRKAUK
Norwegian-inspired Smoked Amber Ale
5.7% abv

Gjærkauk, pronounced "yahr-kah-ook", is our modernized homage to Norse ales of the past. Gjærkauk translates to "yeast scream". Ancient Norse brewers would scream at their yeast believing it would help promote a healthier & stronger fermentation which would lead to a better, stronger b**r.

Gjærkauk is brewed with rye, caramel rye, smoked barley, and fermented with a unique Norwegian yeast known as kveik. Expect prominent impressions of toasted pumpernickel bread, dried dark fruits, and cherry wood smoke. This moderately smokey, malt-forward ale is perfect for the current cool weather and pairs wonderfully with the classic Thanksgiving dishes that will be gracing our tables soon. Come see why it's one of our favorites!

Also available now is Every Red Heart Shines Toward The Red Sun, a bold 10% abv Doppelbock that is sure to warm you up during these cool nights. See you soon in our forest for a pint!

MOONSCRIBE VOL. VIII
Solera-aged Belgian Blond Ale
6.6% abv

The saga continues! Moonscribe is a unique series coming out of our American oak foeder. This Belgian Blond Ale is brewed with loads of spelt malt, judiciously hopped with Riwaka, and aged Solera style.

Solera is the act of removing only a portion of the finished b**r from the vessel it's been aging (in this case, our nearly 1,000 gallon oak foeder) and replenishing the volume with fresh wort to referment and continue aging in oak with traces of every batch before it.

Moonscribe Vol. VIII is bone dry, effervescent, mildly hoppy and endlessly drinkable. As soon as the can is opened you're met with an invigorating waft of fresh squeezed grapefruit juice atop the classic Belgian spice. Once you get into the b**r, you can expect notes of banana runts, ripe pear, grapefruit zest and bazooka bubblegum.

Our blend of three classic Belgian yeast strains that produce a ton of glycerol give Moonscribe a nice fluffy mouthfeel despite having 0% residual sugar after fermentation. We're so happy with how each version of Moonscribe has turned out but Moonscribe Vol. VIII might be our favorite expression yet!

TO THE FOREST
Hazy IPA
6.6% abv

The leaves are starting to change and we have a brand new Hazy IPA to bring in the cool autumn weather!

To The Forest is brewed with pilsen malt & wheat for a soft mouthfeel and very aggressively hopped with Simcoe & Simcoe Cryo for intense notes of sticky pine, juicy mango, pungent passion fruit and bright citrus peel.

Also available now are Proper Porter (Historic London Porter) and Moonscribe Vol. VIII (Foeder-aged Belgian Blond). We'll be experiencing some great autumn weather this weekend; we hope to see you in our beautiful forest for a pint!

PROPER PORTER
Historic London-style Porter
5.8% abv

Back in the 1800's, English Porters were brewed with brown malt rather than heavily roasted grains like black malt, chocolate malt and roasted barley. While brown malt is still a roasted malt, it's roasted to a much lesser degree to provide nutty, toffee, and coffee characters rather than typical heavily roasted & charred characters found in modern porters & stouts. Using nothing but brown & caramel malt to produce a black b**r creates a unique restrained roastiness unlike anything else in the dark b**r realm.

Proper Porter reminds us of having a fresh cup of medium roast coffee with a tiny splash of caramel cream and toasted brown bread on the side. Proper Porter pairs beautifully with holiday dishes and we're so stoked to have it available once again!

Also available now are To The Forest (100% Simcoe Hazy IPA) and Moonscribe Vol. VIII (Foeder-aged Belgian Blond). See you in our forest for a pint!
