Logdson Farmhouse Ales

Mike Coplin — Sat, 25 May 2013 21:25:10 +0000

Logdson Farmhouse Ales, located in Hood River, has been producing some wonderfully unique beers for a fairly short period of time. All of their beers are naturally fermented and bottle conditioned with organic pear juice. They are starting to grow cherries and peaches on their property that will go towards making some truly special, Belgian-inspired ales. We have a great selection of their beers available at our Taphouse on 13th Ave.

Logsdon’s Seizoen Bretta won the Gold in both the 2012 Great American Beer Festival and the World Beer Cup. Their motto “putting the farm back in farmhouse ales” kind of says it all. The idealized image on their labels is more fact than fiction, as it is more or less what their brewery looks like. If you’re planning a trip to Hood River, Logsdon is a must stop. Be sure to check their website and/or facebook for hours/tours/etc. http://www.farmhousebeer.com

In preparation for summer- get crafty with cans!

admin — Fri, 25 May 2012 09:14:59 +0000

Summertime is JUST around the corner (well, I hope!) and that means getting back to the out-of-doors. Hiking! Camping! Swimming! Grilling! Exclamation points!

Craft cans aren’t a new thing but just a reminder that here at 16 Tons, we have a vast selection of some great summer beers available in can form. From our own backyard, Double D Blonde from Hop Valley is a great blonde ale that will quench the thirst of almost all craft beer loves (and is a great gateway beer for the beer novice).

Califormia’s 21 Amendment brewery has a Watermelon Wheat beer and Summer Solstice beer from Anderson Valley are also two delicious beer anyone at a BBQ would love to savor. All summer beers pair great with hot dogs!

As for IPAs in a can, we have several to choose from – Hop Valley, Avery, Caldera, Oskar Blues, etc.

Memorial Day is next weekend! Stock up and impress your friends with a six pack of delicious craft cans.
