Пиво Farm's Edge: Brumley Forest - Fullsteam

Notes: Dear to our hearts; deep in the woods. Brumley Forest is a foraged nut Baltic Porter that reflects Fullsteam's mission to "connect with the land and with one another." In the fall, a handful of foragers -- led by head brewer Brian Mandeville -- wandered the woods of Brumley Forest, a new tract of land recently acquired by the Triangle Land Conservancy. Twenty or so of us collected hundreds of pounds of black walnuts and hickory nuts, and the brewery crew labored for weeks to cure and prepare the nuts for brewing. All beers are a labor of love, but this was capital L Labor. The result is a velvet smooth lager (Baltic Porters are lagers...they rest for weeks), with a distinct black walnut aroma and a silky mouthfeel. More than any other beer we've brewed, Brumley Forest is a taste of place: the taste of a walk deep in the woods. Brumley Forest is a land forever preserved for the common good, so we all can wander, forage, and connect to the land -- and to one another. $1 of every bottle sold goes back to our friends at the Triangle Land Conservancy to support their mission of land protection and environmental education. appearance: garnet tinged black, light umber head aroma: caramelized sugar, raw cocoa, nutty, licorice taste: sweet malt, dark chocolate, walnut, root beer mouthfeel: semi-sweet, smooth, full
