Beau Rivage
Floral, slightly peppery and reminiscent of a favourite sleepy-time tea. Beau Rivage is a 5.6% ABV mixed culture saison conditioned on borage, chamomile and violet flowers from Laughing Rabbit Farm in Astoria, which grows flowers and medicinal herbs with sustainable, biodiverse gardening. The name nods to the beautiful shores of the Columbia River, where trees, bees, people and plants coexist. Label art by Skyler Wells.

The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.
