A glorious Golden Ale with a delightful tickle of pickle.

2024 Anniversary can pour - pour is blonde with minimal head that doesn't linger. Nose is an assault of pickles. Front of palate seems like it's going to be a rough day for your gut, but no, the flavors lack a vinegar bite.

Foggy burnt gold with a sparse off-white head dying to an uneven ring.

Like Vlasic with an even more attractive garlicky accent, this is stupid drinkable and refreshing. Hands down the best pickle beer I've ever had, and we have access to Urban Artifact's solid pickle series regularly.

This was my biggest surprise hit of Great Taste of the Midwest, and as such I hung around Barn Town to try everything else they still had available at their booth. One after another after another, they didn't disappoint--from similarly stupid sounding brews to more serious styles, they all set a high bar.

Light golden look. Dill & vinegar prevail, with the mustard seeds, in pickling spice mix and light malt, to add a foundation to the aroma. Bitter, clash of wills and quite thin, as well. Pickle flavor head butts the malt and then it's bitter.
