BARREL AGED

When brew meets barrel it creates beer elegance.  Our team takes great pride in the craft of barrel-aging beer.  Our Wood Series consists of big bold flavors aged in whiskey, rum, and other spirit-based barrels while our Wild Series dances with controlled bacteria mostly in wine barrels to give a tart and sometimes deliciously funky beer.
