Tree House — Foster Wild Thai

Technische Details

Verkostungsprofil

Foster – Wild Thai from Tree House Brewing Company is a boldly expressive American Barleywine that channels the indulgent spirit of bananas Foster. Rich and warming, it layers caramelized banana, toffee-like spiced rum, and vanilla-forward bourbon over a foundation of dark dried fruits and sweetened coconut. The Wild Thai variant introduces an exotic twist, amplifying tropical intrigue with a nuanced interplay of spice and fruit. Full-bodied and deeply complex, it finishes long and lush without tipping into cloying excess — a masterclass in barrel-aged ambition.

Lebensmittel-Paarung

Pair with a classic banana tarte tatin crowned with salted caramel ice cream, where the beer’s caramelized fruit character finds a natural mirror. Alternatively, serve alongside a rich aged Comté or Gruyère cheese board — the nuttiness and crystalline texture of the cheese provide a savoury counterpoint to the barleywine’s deep sweetness.

About Tree House Brewing Company

Tree House Brewing Company was founded in 2011 in Brimfield, Massachusetts, by four homebrewers who had been perfecting their craft since 2008. What began as a modest operation on a small farm—named after the actual tree house on the property—has evolved into one of America’s most acclaimed craft breweries. After relocating to Monson in 2013 and subsequently to a purpose-built 53,000 square foot facility in Charlton in 2017, Tree House has maintained an uncompromising approach that sets it apart in the industry. The brewery operates as a non-distributing establishment, selling exclusively on-site, where customers regularly queue for an hour or more to purchase their sought-after beers. This deliberate choice reflects a commitment to quality and freshness over mass distribution. Tree House has earned recognition from Untappd, which ranks it among the top ten breweries in the United States, as well as accolades from Beer Advocate, Forbes, the Boston Globe, and Thrillist. The brewery’s reputation rests on its exceptional brewing standards and distinctive approach to craft beer, drawing devoted enthusiasts to rural Massachusetts from across the country.
