Old Foghorn Barleywine Style Ale is brewed strictly according to traditional brewing methods, using only natural ingredients — water, malted barley, fresh whole hops and yeast. Old Foghorn is based on traditional English barley wines.



Old Foghorn is highly hopped, using only Cascade hops. It is fermented with a true top-fermenting ale yeast. Carbonation is produced by an entirely natural process called "bunging," which produces champagne-like bubbles. Our barley wine ale is dry-hopped with additional Cascade hops while it ages in our cellars. Old Foghorn ages for over six months.



For many years, Old Foghorn was only available on draft, but in 1995 we began bottling it in seven-ounce bottles. Because of the full flavor of the ale and the high alcohol content, the small bottle seemed fitting. Both of these qualities make this a unique product, perfect for sipping after dinner. A lot of time and tradition goes into our Old Foghorn, and we hope you will enjoy it as much as we do.
