10 Year Anniversary Series
Our friends Jay and Alex opened The Rare Barrel in 2014-- a new brewery committed exclusively to producing and popularizing sour beer. They fast became leaders of a vanguard movement within craft beer, and the innovative, mouthwatering beers they made were eye opening. These guys are wizards at blending mixed culture beer, but they're also incredibly innovative flavor engineers too, able to pull from a wide pantry of ingredients to create delicious beers. Our brewmaster Ben Edmunds will point to their peach/jasmine sour "On the Shoulders of Giants" as one of the most inspiring beers he's had in his career, so it was no surprise that he and Jay decided to make a jasmine beer together. In an unexpected turn of events, they decided to make a clean, jasmine pilsner. Crackery Canadian base malt serves as a clean backbone to build up herbal, fruity, and floral flavors from European hops and jasmine flowers. We hope you enjoy this tribute to one of our all-time favorite ingredients in beer!
Malt: German and Canadian Pilsner
Hops: Hops: Hallertau Relax, Hallertau Mittelfrüh
Special Ingredients: Jasmine flowers
Spritz, green strawberry, floral, crisp.

Bomber from Brewers Haven. Pale golden, light haze, small foamy head eventually disappears. Malty aroma, musty, floral, barnyard. Taste comes in smooth and creamy, malty, sourdough. Wonderful mouthfeel.

a collaboration with the incomparable rare barrel, cool these guys got together for a beer, a lager no less, a birthday gift from my mother in law, awesome! its done with jasmine, and that element is not at all subtle in this clear and frothy headed yellow brew that looks like the epitome of summer in the glass, sparkling and bubbly and soft looking, clean and radiant, brilliant. you have to like them floral, because this one is really jasmine forward, an almost perfume vibe to it, but its extremely natural, which is what makes the really high dose okay by me. i get slight vanilla, cherry blossom, and spring pollen in the nose, a little botanical bitterness filling in for hops in the flavor, and some lager yeast pushing through somehow, almost european pils type to me, clean and very dry, so the jasmine pops even more at the finish. i think this is crisp, bubbly, and very drinkable, even refreshing when its cold, but as it warms it loses a lot of that and the jasmine starts to be a lot. i do like the refinement of the base lager and think the jasmine in its natural form is quite compatible with it, but the dose is very high indeed. a fun and interesting beer, of the high quality you would expect from these two fantastic breweries, and something a little different from the other flavored lagers out there this time of year. delightfully unique.

22oz bottle poured in to a nonic glass. No dating.
Look- Clear golden straw color. Nice rocky bright white with great retention, moderate lacing. Very active carbonation streams visible.
Smell- Bready and honey malt, citrus (tangerine and lemon pith), light fruitiness (green apple), dill pickle? Spicy herbal/grassy and floral notes.
Taste- Nice lemony citrus, sweet bready malts, dry floral/earthy hops and light spice.
Feel- Light bodied. Crisp with a dry, lightly bitter finish. Medium/heavy carbonation on the tongue.
O- A very nice pilsner but the pickle in the aroma (which I'm assuming is the Jasmine) is a bit off putting.

22 oz bomber from Safeway in West Salem OR
$5.49
a collaboration with The Rare Barrel.
Pours a slightly hazy corn oil yellow. Small bubbly white head.
Aromas..grassy hops, some phenols?..and grapes.
Taste is similar to the aroma in most ways..there is a nice slight sourness to the beer which works. Oddly given it is a pilsner.
Nice mouth feel..very lively and finished a tad dry.
Good beer..an unusual pils.
