Pretentious Barrel House - Indolence

The passion fruit aroma is very apparrent. The dichotomy of sweet and sour unite to create something unlike any beer we have ever tried. The balance of lactose, vanilla, passion fruit and hops impart a flavor that is truly greater than the sum of its parts.

Pretentious Barrel House - Malediction
Style: Sour
ABV: 6.60%     

Our dark sour aged in wine and bourbon barrels for 14 months. Black currants add brightness and juxtapose a flavor profile of chocolate and sweetness. This beer was naturally carbonated which gives it a vibrant mouthfeel and characteristic Brett aroma.

Pretentious Barrel House - Truculent W/ Cucumber & Lime
Style: Sour
ABV: 5.70%     

When we set out to make this “summer beer,” we envisioned a hard seltzer, except much better. Crisp and refreshing with a hint of fruit but not overwhelming (yes, cucumber is a fruit, we will debate you on this, and we will win). We added both lime juice and zest to enhance the flavor and aroma. The resulting beverage has a fruity, almost melon-like quality, with an unmistakable cucumber finish.

Currently on tap in 1 location.
