OFFICIAL De Garde + Tillamook County Thread!

[FoudreGuy]

Thanks for the tip. Do you think if I could make it to Portland by 6:00 if I leave Tillamook by 4:00?

That seems tough even without eclipse traffic.

Sunday is gonna be a shitshow on every road in Oregon, according to the Dept. of Transportation.

She may still hit traffic. Gas stations in Prineville and Bend started reporting running out of gas yesterday. Also, traffic lines coming in and out of Prineville were 30 miles long yesterday as well. Madras will be crazy.

Confirmed Madras is all ready a **** show. I had a delivery that was 4 hours late coming from Bend and he told me it was 4 times as bad heading the other direction.

 

[Podunkparte]

Hahahaha, staying the hell out of that area on purpose!

Guys, it's just the moon passing between the Earth and the Sun. Relax.

 

[ac24]

At de garde now if anyone is here or coming.

 

[BigFrank]

I will be at DG tomorrow.... hopefully around opening...maybe later. Anyone around?

Allocation #1!
The Kriek
Keepers Beer #1. Our spontaneously fermented golden wild ale, blended from multiple years of barrel fermented and matured stock, refermented on regionally grown Montmorency and Morello cherries. The nuance of the blend matches up elegantly in this fruit forward beer, with the Montmorency cherries providing their typical spice notes and the Morello cherries offering bold color and flavor. This particular blend incorporates a greater amount of Morello than normal for us, providing a more intense color and depth of fruit character. Crisp carbonation, an earthy funk and delicate oak balance the anticipated vibrant fruit character.
ALC 7% BY VOL
750 ML


The Duo Spruce Tip Cuvee
Keepers Beer #2. An elegant blend of multiple years of spontaneously inoculated and barrel fermented golden wild ale aged in local Gin barrels. This blend was chosen for its notable complexity, balanced yet characterful barrel notes and emphatic Brettanomyces character. After blending, this was conditioned on local Spruce tips hand-picked from our beautiful forests by our brewery team. When picked in the narrow window of ideal time, the tips present a crisp citrus character in addition to the expected presentation of their ‘foresty’ origins. In the beer, they provide an aroma of freshly macerated blackberries, citrus and spruce to complement the botanical nature of the Gin barrels. Extensive conditioning in bottle has provided a vibrant carbonation and a bold funk.

[wethorseblanket]

pretty sure they only want your trustee info 24 hours in advance of pickup. you don't need to give any trustee info to buy bottles online.

 

[FoudreGuy]

TFW your buddy calls you from de Garde seeing if you want anything and you don't see the missed call until an hour later when he's no longer there.
