40 acres of forested land in Calhoun County, Arkansas is where Lost Forty Brewing took its name.
Here is what would be in my first taster tray (not forty, just five)…
Bare Bones Pilsner – “a robust, slightly sweet malt character on the front of the tongue, notes of alpine flowers and just-baked bread as it goes back through the palate. A clean, mildly bitter finish to round things off.”
Love Honey Bock – “a full-bodied, beer naturally sweetened with Arkansas honey for a smooth, creamy complexity.”
Twig Table Saison – “a bright, lemony, addictively refreshing, delicately tart, perfectly spritzy, and oh-so-laid back table beer. TWIG’s mildly sour and refreshing flavors come from fermenting our light Farmhouse Saison with wild yeast cultivated from the local Dunbar Community Garden inside a lightly charred white oak Foeder vessel.”
Forest Queen Milk Stout – “More than a stout. In addition to roasted barley used for deep, delicious flavors in all stouts, our lucious Milk Stout includes lactose, or milk sugar, for a velvety, medium body, and luxurious finish. Enjoy flavors of cocoa berries and dark chocolate covered espresso beans.”
