A mixed fermentation Saison aged in oak barrels

Golden Door is a recipe inspired by old world saison tradition comprised of water, barley, oats, spelt, wheat, European hops, yeast, and bacteria. 

"The name is derived from a George Washington Carver quote: “Education is the key to unlock the golden door of freedom.” A quote that is relevant because of the agricultural tradition of saison brewing, and because of the knowledge we’ve gained as a brewery over time which has allowed us to present this elegant and complex beer derived from simple means. 

As saisons were made for farmers and fieldworkers, we wanted to honor a person who made a difference in the agricultural community, especially in Georgia,” says Wood Cellar and Specialty Brand Manager, Blake Tyers. “We take inspiration from the curious thinkers, inventors, artists, and explorers, and with saisons being so important to agriculture we picked out George Washington Carver and used a quote of his to name the beer.”

Farmhouse Ale & Ramen

Farmhouse Ales are approachable, parfumey, lightly floral beers with a light body, a lower ABV, and notes of fruits and spices. The beer is often very dry and super effervescent with a distinct bitterness and hence needs a dish that can stand up to it. Since the beer is light enough for a hot summer day as well, the food doesn’t need to be heavy but spiced up to the max. Ramen noodles are the obvious choice here. The distinct yeast flavor matches the umami notes of the ramen and all notes of spices and fruits stand up to the Asian spices in the broth. 

Farmhouse Ale

A farmhouse ale - or saison as its also known - is a refreshing, highly-attenuated, moderate-strength Belgian ale with a dry finish. Typically highly carbonated, and using non-barley cereal grains and optional spices for complexity, as complements the expressive yeast character that is fruity, spicy, and not overly phenolic. It features an harmonious marriage of the additive and beer, but still recognizable as a beer.
