Partnership kicks off with happy hour and tree walk on 4/6

Amanda’s Squash Soup!

For the month of December, we’re partnering with Oregon Wild, to whom we’ll donate 25% of proceeds from all sales of Alesong’s juicy farmhouse ale, Silver Lining, to support their mission of protecting and restoring Oregon's wildlands, wildlife, and waters - including ancient forests that safeguard our climate, and the rivers and streams that provide water for making great beer.

Sometimes it seems like you only ever hear about stouts aged in bourbon barrels, but we know, and you know, that there's many more possibilities of bourbon-barrel-aged goodness out there! If you've enjoyed Kentucky Kilt or Rackhouse Reserve in the past you're going to love Cellar Season! This winter sipper was inspired by the delicious collaboration we made last year with our friends at Deschutes Brewery, Maskerade. It began its journey as a massive brown ale before being matured in Heaven Hill bourbon barrels for the better part of a year, picking up vanilla and bourbon notes that accent the rich caramel and nutty flavors of the base beer.

Rhino Suit was one of the first spirits-barrel-aged beers we released at Alesong back in 2016, and although we’ve made subtle tweaks each time around, that same rich and delicious milk stout has been a favorite that we’ve returned to again and again. This fall, we're releasing Rhino Suit alongside our Mexican hot chocolate version, Señor Rhino. Both beers share the same wonderfully rich and chocolatey base blend of stouts aged in Heaven Hill barrels, but Señor forges its own identity with the addition of rich cocoa nibs, smoky ancho chiles, spicy cinnamon, and smooth vanilla.

You didn't really think we were going to not release Touch of Brett this year did you?? Beyond being our most award-winning beer, Touch of Brett is one of our absolute favorites! It's a wonderful expression of how yeast and hops can complement each other and pairs with nearly anything making it the perfect beer for sharing at your holiday meal! This hoppy saison is always 100% fermented with brettanomyces and aged in French oak barrels before being liberally dry-hopped. This year we used Nectaron hops from New Zealand for the dry-hop, layering tantalizing notes of stone fruit and citrus onto the wonderfully tropical yeast profile.

Whiskers on Kittens is the encore to our rosé-inspired beer, Raindrops on Roses. For this beer/wine hybrid, we set out to showcase our favorite Bordeaux varietal, sourcing some top quality Cabernet Sauvignon grapes from the Horse Heaven Hills AVA to complement a blend of tart farmhouse ales from our wild cellar. Whiskers on Kittens pours a stunning crimson that hints at the bold flavors to come. The beer bursts with aromas and flavors of cherry and blackberry and boasts a complex tannin structure from the oak aging and fermentation on the grape must. Try it with anything you'd pair with a glass of Cabernet.
