April 17th, 2026. Some Kind of Sign - Amber Ale

Some Kind of Sign - Amber Brett. For almost three years the world turned as Some Kind of Sign aged, first in oak for 19mos and then conditioned cold for 13 more. Our camera rolls filled up with the randomness of life and eventually it became 'finished.'

Brant filled the barrels with an amber ale three Summers ago and this Spring he felt it was 'ready.' We're so fortunate to have a cellar that stays relatively the same temperature, and after several years of developing cultures in the wood, those cultures create their own, distinctive characteristics. Developing on a slow progression, they eventually produce delicate and often totally unique aromas.

 After primary fermentation, Some Kind of Sign began its journey in the barrel with Brettanomyces Clausenii. The ale is 7.1% abv. It is tart, almost juicy, fruity with a touch of oak and a leaves with a mouthwatering finish.

 At first it was hard to imagine waiting so long, but time marches on. With Brant's dedication, good record keeping and care, we get to pour an Ozark Beer that can never be reproduced. A delicious little snapshot in time. Slow down a little, go through that camera roll and enjoy those moments you saved for later, might as well be today.

 PS : Brant's funny too, so he named this beer because he loved the idea of someone pulling up to the bar and saying "give me some kind of sign." The song's from Marty's next album.
