Little Cottage Brewery Releases 2019

These continue Jon Shari's experiments with beer in 2019 as a homebrewer but has started to get some traction in making appearances at various events, so he's priming for a brewery opening. There's a mixture of beers that were submitted to Untappd (and yes, you can create a "homebrewer" style account and post beer reviews there) - I'm not sure if there were other beers for this year - I'll update the list as I get more information. These are by submission date and with any notes if I have them.

** 2019.12.20 Fros'e Cactus Cottage - Sour - Fruited 7% Kings Brewing Co. Collaboration (cans)

 

I'm not sure if these were only kegged or offered in bottles (most likely the latter using bottle conditioning) - they started to get labels as Jon's daughter Tori started creating unique designs (in later years Jon would sometimes bottle with a handwritten scrawl on the bottle).
