About Us

SMALL BATCH

All of our beers are brewed one barrel at a time (they're even mashed in a barrel!), lending a distinct vintage quality to each batch. It also allows us to stretch our wings creatively, completely free of a production schedule.

MIXED CULTURE

All of our beers are produced using a variety of yeasts and bacteria. Our inspiration comes from the farmhouse brewing traditions of Europe, and brewers of funky, weird beers around the world.

BARREL FERMENTED

Every one of our beers starts and finishes in oak barrels that previously held wine or various spirits. The oak and its previous inhabitant become a part of the flavour profile, and our mixed culture takes residency in the nooks and crannies.

BEERS

CURRENTLY AVAILABLE

Bottle-conditioned, barrel-fermented, mixed-culture beers available to go at the brewery!

PIXIE MOSAIC

GOLDEN SOUR ALE DRY-HOPPED WITH MOSAIC

Our flagship sour with Mosaic hops. Bursting with fruity aromas and flavours, all derived from the microbes and hops. A personal favourite. 5.8% ABV 500 ml

TENEBROUS

DARK SOUR WITH BLACK CURRANT

A dark sour refermented with black currant puree. Pours a mysterious, deep purple, that borders on black. A cap of mauve foam invites a taste. Jammy and tart, with a hint of cocoa. 6.0% ABV 500 ml  

INTERGALACTIC

SAISON WITH GALAXY HOPS

A mixed fermentation saison, well hopped with Galaxy, for its delicious, tropical punch! This one is for the hop heads and farmhouse fanatics alike! 7.0% ABV 500 ml


GATHERING

SAISON WITH FORAGED ROSE HIPS & GRAPEFRUIT

Brewed with locally foraged rose hips in the kettle, and fermented with a mixed culture of saison yeast and Brett. Refermented with freshly squeezed grapefruit juice, and dry-hopped with Citra. 6.5% ABV 500 ml

YULE

MIXED FERMENTATION ALE WITH SPRUCE TIPS

Celebrate the holidays like a Viking! A strong spruce tip ale, fermented with Voss kveik and Brett. The tips were first added to the kettle, and then more went into the barrel as a dry-hop, along with Cascade. Perfect for your Solstice festivities! 7.8% ABV 500 ml

HEADWATERS

DRY-HOPPED AGED GOLDEN SOUR

A golden sour, aged for 8 months in the barrel with a diverse mixed culture of saccharomyces, brettanomyces, lactobacillus, and pediococcus. Bright and fruity (lemon and green apple), with a complex, earthy funk. Lightly dry-hopped with Ella and Hallertau Blanc. 6.0% ABV 500 ml

VISIONS

AGED GOLDEN SOUR WITH PLUMS
