We tried Wizard Burial Ground from @breweryvivant which is a bourbon barrel aged Belgian quad. Wow, this is a great beer - deliciously decadent. It is malty and trends sweet, like a good quad, with elements of toffee, raisins, and dates. I recommend one glass because of it's deceptively smooth taste and 10% ABV. A nice supper on a false Spring afternoon!

We tasted the sumac mead we bottled about two months ago. It is crisp with a hint of tartness that reflects the essence of the sumac. The color has a slight pinkish hue although the pic is more golden ocher. #midgemagic #sumacmead #mead #meadmaking #sumac #staghornsumac #homebrew #winemaking #northerminnesota

This Farmhouse Saison was designed by @bemidjibrewing for the American Homebrewers Association's Big Brew Day in conjunction with Upstream Homebrewers. In other words, BBC brewed the base and Upstream members took 5th gallons to tweak to their own specs and taste. I added the juice and zest of two lemons and an orange, as well as a trace amount of allspice and cloves to the secondary. It fermented for two months! Wow, it was worth it. BBC provided this description for the brew - "Glowing Haze, Light, Refreshing, Peppery, Lemon, Spice" - and that pretty much nails what I ended up with. This is an ideal beer to enjoy while listening to the waves on da Midge and enjoying the breeze on a delightful July evening in northern Minnesota. #saison #bemidjibrewing #upstreamhomebrewers #craftbeer #homebrew #farmhousesaison #collaboration #bigbrew (at Midge Lake) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0UbxFrgaqV/?igshid=1a4d9fpa06upd

@momma.vice and I are tasting the spruce tip beer/wine we bottled a couple weeks ago. It's lightly carbonated, dry, and refreshing. It has a citrusy aroma, like bitter orange. The taste is slightly sweet, citrusy, and hard to describe, maybe spruce, but definitely not piney. A good sipper for a summer evening. #homebrew #wildwine #sprucetips #sprucetipbeer #sprucetipwine #wildbeer #homemadewine (at Midge Lake) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0KNk7mgiV4/?igshid=1vrdo53y6apf7

I found this beer in a $3 discount bin in Brainerd. I should have bought more! This American wheat ale is a sour with a tart apple thing going on that plays well with the funkiness. This is a nice sipper at 9.0 abv on a warm summer afternoon on da Midge. #craftbeer #sour #realale #savetheales #brueryterreux #thebruery (at Midge Lake) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzRTjNIg7Ag/?igshid=1mrhd0ziju2iz

We tasted the sumac wine we bottled a couple months ago in honor of the arctic blast. I'm still loving the color. The wine has a citrusy taste and warms you to your toes. We'll definitely repeat this experiment! #wildwine #sumacwine #homemadewine #homebrew (at Midge Lake) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtNAxklDi6u/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1imwnygj9tlpx
