Just before we ticked over into July, the Beachwood Blendery released Masucot a spontaneous lambic-inspired sour ale aged in oak barrels with Masumoto Sun Crest & Gold Dust peaches & Golden Sweet apricots.
Peaches & Apricots
Adoption
Masumoto Farms is well known in the SoCal beer world. You see lovely beers from Homage to Cellador to many, many more that use their stone fruit to make their beers even better.
But even I did not know that you can “adopt” a tree. Check HERE for the details. Yes, it is expensive. Yes, you harvest in July and August when it is really damn hot.
But the thing is, this agriculture is important. Beer is soooo tied to the land and any opportunity to help those who actually do the hard work of growing should be rewarded. Shouldn’t farmers and teachers get the same money that LeBron does? Or at least 1/2?
