点评:I've coveted De Garde for close to 10 years after having a recommended bottle at Arch Bridge Taphouse in Oregon City. De Garde beer isn't easy to find either.
De Garde doesn't do standard brewery beer that you'd typically find in the PNW. They specialize in wild yeast, and their taste profiles are unique. Hence, why wouldn't they have flights to better educate new drinkers to their beers? NOPE. No taster flights. Nonsensical. Second, which should be a given since they don't do flights, they don't do tasters. So, you're on the hook for whatever you choose off the board.
I love farmhouse and sour beers, but not even all of De Garde's beers fit my flavor preferences. And I've never been to a brewery's tasting room that didn't do flights and tasters. This is marketing 101.
So after waiting a very long time to finally visit their tasting room, I was incredibly let down. I had half a pint (thankfully something tasty), and my partner had a guest beer (he hates farmhouse anything...), and we left.
2 points for nice atmosphere, having guest taps, and friendly staff.

De Garde 不生产您通常在 PNW 找到的标准啤酒厂啤酒。他们专注于野生酵母,其口味独特。因此,为什么他们不开设航班来更好地教育新饮酒者如何喝啤酒呢?没有。没有品尝航班。无稽之谈。其次,这应该是理所当然的,因为他们不做航班,也不做品酒师。所以,无论你在棋盘上做出什么选择,你都得承担责任。
我喜欢农家啤酒和酸啤酒,但并非所有 De Garde 的啤酒都符合我的口味偏好。我从来没有去过没有航班和品酒师的啤酒厂品酒室。这是营销101。
因此,在等了很长时间终于参观了他们的品酒室之后,我感到非常失望。我喝了半品脱(幸好有一些美味的东西),我的搭档喝了一杯客用啤酒(他讨厌农舍的任何东西......),然后我们离开了。
2 分,良好的氛围、客用水龙头和友好的工作人员。
