I don't know that there are style issues with the use of organics, but it is one of those extras that could work to buttress other native aspects of Oregon brewing. If breweries begin to brew with more botanicals, say. But really, the answer is that I just don't know.Jeff Alworthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02930119177544342495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21271644.post-11314620578782116862007-08-24T09:02:00.000-07:002007-08-24T09:02:00.000-07:00Where do organic beers - which based on the Organi...Where do organic beers - which based on the Organic Beer Fest seem to be more entrenched in Oregon than many other areas - fit in to this?Stan Hieronymushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11423863209263153614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21271644.post-50394762816892013252007-08-23T19:46:00.000-07:002007-08-23T19:46:00.000-07:00I don't know enough about beer to comment about co...I don't know enough about beer to comment about content but you certainly have an abundance of knowledge.

He got the sage from the Warm Springs reservation where his wife at the time was a member. So it's the same sage. It has a similar quality in some respects to hops--it's got a green, zesty quality. I recall that it thinned out the body slightly.
