Douglas, Fraser, Scotch pine, Spruce, to name a few. For a few weeks every year we bring the forest into our homes and as the glistening needles shed their frost and perk after a long drink, the smell of winter cheer fills the room. There are stout ones and bent ones and tall ones and plump ones. Each is chosen by feel and its special character revealed against its companions we’ve passed along the way. From the field, to the roof of the car and finally among hearth and mantel— bespeckled in familiar delights, this is surely the best tree yet. Cut Your Own is a Pale Ale utilizing whole cone Cascade, just in time for the holidays. Pouring a beautiful orange color, it bursts with sticky hop notes straight from the bale and hits with a wallop of candied orange, grapefruit peel and a burst of piney resin. We hope you enjoy this liquid ode to fresh cut conifers as much as we do!

Had on tap at Sandwich. Pours clear, gold in color with one third inch head. Taste is big pineapple, pale malt. Moderate low carbonation, light body, slightly bitter. An ok piney pale ale. Not bad but nothing I need a four pack of.

Canned Winter 2025. “O Christmas tree“ stamped on the bottom of the can
My annual day-before-Thanksgiving Tree House trip this year yielded only a few new beers, but they all sound exciting. This one is super fresh which is great for a whole cone hopped beer, especially on a cold night like tonight. Let’s crack it open and see what it has to offer
Pours a mostly clear deep orange with 2 fingers of creamy off white head that slowly fades to a thin cap and leaves minimal lacing
The nose is quite bright and very fresh. I’m picking up on aromas of lemon peel, black tea, crackery malt, wildflower honey, pithy grapefruit, grassy hops, pine sap, bread crust, and candied orange
It’s much more gentle in taste than the nose would lead you to believe but it’s still quite nice. On the front end of the sip I’m tasting lemon oil, bready malt, orange zest, piney hops, white pepper, pithy grapefruit, and light weed. The swallow brings notes of candied orange, bread crust, pithy grapefruit, brown sugar, grassy hops, black tea, and lemon oil
A light medium body pairs with gentle carbonation, resulting in a crisp beer. Finishes a tad sticky but dries out over time
This isn’t particularly impressive for Tree House hops, but it’s still a damn solid beer all things considered
