Golden Brett

Notes of citrus, apricot, and bread crust all make an appearance in this mildly tart, golden-colored beer. We brew Golden Brett with Victory, 2-row, oats, and red wheat malt before fermenting it with our house strain of Brettanomyces yeast—first in stainless, then in an 800-gallon oak foudre. After hopping lightly with Northern Brewer and Simcoe, we dry hop it with Simcoe again prior to bottling. This beer is a golden example of what our local strain of Brettanomyces can do.

What is: Wild Beer

What we call wild beer, many other people call “sour” beer. This is purely a preference, and not any hard and fast rule. But we wanted to explain why we feel like “wild” works a bit harder than “sour,” and what wild beers are to us.
