It’s A Firkin Cheese Pairing
-MOTHER LODE GOLDEN ALE-
Our lightest ale is crisp, dry, and refreshing.
-Cypress Grove Truffle Tremor-
Goats Milk- The classic flavor of truffle meets the velvety perfection of ripened goat milk
cheese. Earthy, elegant, and sophisticated, it’s sure to make even the
most distinguished taste buds shake!
-HOOLIGAN BROWN ALE-
Hooligan Ale features imported Marris Otter malt which makes this beer super smooth and easy drinking. Slightly sweet, with just a hint of hops, this beer was brewed in the Southern English tradition with an American twist.
-Manchego Semi Curado-
Sheeps Milk- At 3 months old, this is the
youngest Manchego made by the Villadiego estate. The color of the
paste is light – the taste is buttery and delicate with hints of waxy spiciness.
-ORGANIC FREE RANGE RED-
Free Range Red is a rich copper-colored ale with loads of fresh hop flavor. Medium in body the caramel sweetness blends wonderfully with the smooth hop flavor creating a balanced, super drinkable beer. This beer is brewed with 100% Organically-grown malts
-Tillamook Vintage Cheddar –
Cows Milk- Vintage White Medium
Cheddar Cheese is aged over 100 days and features a distinct velvety
fuller cheddar flavor that pairs especially well with fruit and wine.
-ORGANIC TREE HUGGER PORTER-
-Tree Hugger Porter features a rich chocolate malt flavor that finishes dry and roasty. Delicate hop flavor rounds out this rich full-bodied ale. This beer is brewed with 100% Organically-grown malt.
-Beechers Flagship-
Flagship is a semi-hard cow’s milk cheese
with a uniquely robust, nutty flavor. It is carefully aged for one year.
-PRO ROW PALE ALE-
A collaboration by the brewers from Laurelwood, Double Mountain and Walking Man. Chad, Matt and Jacob got together to brew this deliciously quaffable beer in honor of Produce Row’s reopening- one of Portland’s oldest good beer bars. This refreshing pale ale brings together some of the brewers favorite ingredients in great summer beer.
-Red Hawk Triple Cream-
Cows Milk- Cowgirl Creamery captures the essence
of West Marin with its Red Hawk, a triple-cream, washed-rind,
fully-flavored cheese made from organic cow milk from the Straus
Family Dairy. Aged four weeks and washed with a brine solution that
tints the rind a sunset red-orange.
-OLD RELIABLE BARLEY WINE (FIRKIN)-
This strong, deeply complex beer is truly for the connoisseur. Olde Reliable gets its rich color and flavor from loads of Pacific Northwest malt and an especially long boil. A dose of brown sugar in the boil add to the unique character of this ale.
-Rogue Oregon Blue-
Aged at least 90 days in our
Roquefort modeled caves, its semi-soft texture is smooth and its
flavor subtle. Richly hued blue-green veins randomly highlight the wheel.Pairs
nicely with figs, red silk pears, fresh spinach, Viognier wine,
rustic peasant bread and coffee.
