Barrels & Bottle – Lots Happening at the Commons Brewery
“We are brewing Urban Farmhouse, Madrone, Blonde, Pale Evening draft pretty regularly.” says founding brewer Mike Wright. Wright,head brewer Sean Burke and Josh Grgas have been quite busy working on one off’s, barrel-aged specialties such as their Eleanor – a barrel-aged rendition of their acclaimed Urban Farmhouse Ale. “This beer is brewed with magic.” Wright tells us. The Commons are also making a barrel-aged Urban Farmhouse Ale with harvest plums which will provide their own brux funk and complexities to the brew. They’ve also got another farmhouse brew barrel-aged with what Wright calls “a new-to-us strain of Brett.”
Grgas also shared with us some of the recent and noteworthy goings-on happening with this farmhouse-inspired microbrewery.
