This beer was originally brewed with the intention to clean up my malt room. I had a challenge to create an interesting beer with many different types of malt that would make sense to our patrons. As I began to develop the recipe with fall in mind, I remembered the many fall hikes that I took as a child. Many of the aromas and flavors of the wilderness began to come to life. Nuts, evergreen sap, honey, maple, stone fruit and smoke all found a place in this ale. A warming ale released in late fall.
