The mikans used in this brew are fresh, succulent, and local — harvested on the land and by the hand of the Carpenter. The Brewer processes them minimally, combines them with wholesome, traditional and minimally processed malt and hop (characteristic of Baird Beer), and orchestrates the whole in a process of simple and traditional brewing. The result is a product greater than the sum of its parts — as is true in the case of great human friendship.
