The start of the year is marked by our annual cellar sale, during which we share a selection of farmhouse bottles we kept to age for a few years longer. This moment serves as an opportunity to reflect on the years gone by, with each bottle marking a moment in our history. From our Valley Beer blends to farmhouse beers aged on fruit, each bottle tells a distinct story from when it is brewed and blended to when it is opened and enjoyed.

For over five years, we have utilized what we call “The Nest” as our farmhouse production space, accommodating more than 250 oak barrels, including our foudres that house our mixed culture—the very foundation to farmhouse fermentation. Some beers undergo a six-month maturation in oak, while others patiently age for up to two years. The offerings from our vintage collection span this entire spectrum, each with a unique character distinct from the others.
