Step #1: Snow & Rainfall Collect in the High Cascades
Snow and rainfall collect atop Oregon's High Cascades and trickle through the cracks of rocks on volcanic flows covering the McKenzie Pass.
Step #2: A Volcanic “Sponge” Absorbs the Water
After the water filters through the layers of volcanic flow, young volcanic rocks act like a massive sponge and absorb the water.
Step #3: Volcanic Layers Filter the Water
Precipitation trickles into the cracks of the rocks and through the volcanic layers, filtering the water.
Step #4: Water Bubbles Up at Various Springs
Anywhere between three and 14 years later, the water slowly makes its way through the volcanic layers, eventually bubbling up at various springs that feed into the McKenzie River.
Step #5: Water Enters the McKenzie River, Then Your Pint Glass
Once the lava-filtered water reaches the McKenzie River, it enters our local water source, our brewery, then your pint glass.
Step #6: Track Down Some Pacific Rain Near You!
