Nectarine Dream is a blend of sour blond ales aged in oak barrels and foudres for up to 18 months, then naturally fermented with fresh, Northwest-grown nectarines and aged on the fruit for an additional five months. We hand process each piece of fruit to ensure full ripeness before adding it to the tank and employing traditional winemaking techniques that help capture the purest expression of the nectarine as well as the time and place in which it was grown.
Cascade Brewing has been a pioneer in the sour beer renaissance since 2006 and is the proud innovator of the Northwest Sour Ale. We are, by nature, the definition of artisanal brewing: we’re not bound by stylistic guidelines, just our own imagination and the ingredients we can access.
