We’re excited to share with you three new bottled Saisons as part of our new Local Saison series. Each of these beers features all local ingredients.The malt comes to us from Admiral Maltings in Alameda, CA. The barley, wheat and rye were sourced from Esparto, CA and Woodland, CA. And the apricots in Joy of Apricots are from Whole Star Farms.
Our goal with this series was to highlight our region and the incredible resources and ingredients that we have available to us locally. We are so lucky to have access to these ingredients and to be able to use them in our beers.
Each of these beers was fermented with a mixed culture of our house Saison bend and house brettanomyces. They are all bottle conditioned and will continue to age and mature gracefully for several years.
Be sure to take a closer look at each of these beautiful labels which were illustrated by our friends at Stout Collective.
Joy Of Apricots (Saison w/ Local Apricots)
6.3% ABV / $12+tax/crv per 765ml bottle
Capay Rye (Rye Saison)
5.9% ABV / $9+tax/crv per 765ml bottle
Down the Road (100% Wheat Saison)
6.0% ABV / $9+tax/crv per 765ml bottle
All of these bottles go on sale this Saturday October 24 at Noon. Tell your friends you’ve got lunch plans and we’ll see you this weekend!
What’s the deal with all the Mellowwood beers? We’re glad you asked. The Mellowwood series kicked off last year with the release of Mellowwood Pilsner and since then we’ve released Mellowwood Rauchbier, Mellowwood Maibock and Mellowwood Festbier.
All of the beers in the Mellowwood series have one thing in common — each of them has been lagered for up to 60 days in oak barrels instead of in stainless tanks.
Every beer reacts differently this process but they all share mild oak characteristics without being too intense or overpowering the beer.
We’re thrilled with how the beers in this series have turned out and will continue to add more in the future
