You probably already know Alesong at this point. And when you think of them, you probably think of their expert barrel program of wild ales and barrel aged dark beers.

But check it out NOW! They are releasing their very first cans and they are... an IPA and a Pilsner? What?? YEP! Indeed! It seems like there isn't anything Alesong can't do. And just look at these cans! Goodness they are awesome!

Join us and Matt from Alesong next Wednesday for a very lucky sneak peek at these new beers on draft and in cans to-go!

We will be featuring both the IPA and the Pilsner on draft and we will have limited quantities of cans in the bottle shop so be sure to get yours quickly!

Matt will be in the shop and walking about sampling out the cans and some of his personal favorite barrel aged bottles as well.

AVAILABLE ON DRAFT:

Alesong IPA - NW IPA with Citra, Mosaic and Simcoe

Alesong Pilsner - Crisp, floral and refreshing

MORE ABOUT ALESONG:

At Alesong, our approach is patient and artistic. 100% of our products are matured in barrels and then consciously blended to create a complex and unique beverage experience. Drawing inspiration from like-minded artisans across the globe, the goal is to create beers, wines, and ciders that are innovative and unique, yet approachable and balanced. And with flavors that range from tart and fruity to rich and malty, there's something for every palate.

We believe that beer is worthy of contemplation and reverence and hope to share that passion with you.

Wild and Sour Beers

Our wild and sour beers are fermented and matured primarily in neutral French oak former wine barrels with mixed cultures of saccharomyces, brettanomyces and lactobacillus, developing complex flavors over time. These beers range from yeast driven saisons and farmhouse ales to sour beers co-fermented with whole organic fruits like blueberries, peaches, nectarines and even wine grapes.

Spirits-Barrel-Aged Beers

Alesong’s extensive spirits barrel program provides a unique counterbalance to our wild and sour beers, with an emphasis on drawing flavors from the barrel’s prior life. Rich, malt-driven beers aged in bourbon barrels like our Rhino Suit imperial milk stout or Maestro barleywine make up the bulk of these beers, but we also love crafting small-batch, cocktail-inspired blends and other unique flavor combinations using unique barrels that formerly held tequila, gin, or even maple syrup.

Blending

Once the beer in the barrels tells us it's ready, we sample and select each barrel individually to blend. Paying homage to old-world Lambic blenders and artisan winemakers, we believe that the final blend of a barrel-aged beer is much more satisfying than simply the sum of its parts or each individual barrel by itself. As a barrel-focused brewery, the multitude of barrels in our cellar provides us with a rich variety of flavor profiles from which to craft each blend, much as a chef builds a cohesive and balanced dish using the ingredients in their kitchen.

Bottle Conditioning

The bulk of our farmhouse ales and sour beers are bottle conditioned - packaged still with additional yeast and sugar before undergoing a final fermentation in the bottle to create carbonation naturally.
