ediblecentraloregon.com | 15 day one, Pyka declared that his new brewery would focus equally on traditional styles such as his Czech-style pale lager as well as envelope-pushing styles like his Mexican tepache-inspired ale with pineapple and cinnamon. Winning anything at the OBA is impressive because it is truly a celebration of Oregon craft brewing with local industry experts as the judges. Lest you think that means Pyka’s beers only appeal to locals, Terranaut has also already medaled at the Great American Beer Festival (GABF), judged by national luminaries, for a coffee-infused brown ale, and at the World Beer Cup competing against the best breweries from around the globe, with that medal going to a sour beer inspired by mango lassi from India.
