“The magnitude or intensity that must be exceeded for a certain reaction, phenomenon, result, or condition to occur or be manifested” is the definition of “threshold” in most dictionaries. Threshold is also the passion project for Portland, Oregon, couple Jarek and Sara Szymanski who opened Threshold Brewing & Blending the beer-centric neighborhood of Montavilla two years ago this month. “Our aim at Threshold is to continue what we’ve been doing since we first fell in love with brewing: share our craft with others, brew the beers we love, push boundaries and connect with our town and neighborhood. Threshold is about a shared community, a place to bring your family, a place to try good things and a place to meet good people,” states Threshold hype. Together, the Poland-born Jarek and Portland local Sara brew experimental hoppy ales, funk farmhouse beers, mixed-culture sours, and bourbon-forward dark, strong beers. Swing by Peaks & Pints today and grab our to-go flight of Threshold beers — a flight we call Peaks and Pints Pilot Program: Threshold Brewing On The Fly.

Peaks and Pints Pilot Program: Threshold Brewing On The Fly

Threshold Jack Knife

6.7% ABV

Collaboration with Montavilla’s Sebastiano’s Sicilian Deli, Jack Knife milk stout is brewed with a bit of lactose then aged 9 months in Westward Whiskey barrels for whiskey and oak notes on the first sip with a boozy but mellow dark chocolatey finish.

Threshold Barrel Aged Neptune

7% ABV

Threshold grabbed their award-winning Baltic porter and aged in 12 months in whiskey barrels for subtle oak and booze with nuttiness and cocoa leading the way.

Threshold Green Prophecies

7.3% ABV

Green Prophecies is Threshold’s hop-drenched hazy IPA dry hopped with El Dorado and Nelson Sauvin for tons of melon and stone fruit, finishing dry with a lingering fruit skin bitterness.

Threshold Porch King

7% ABV

A hop-forward West Coast IPA that opens on a dank note before plunging into familiar layers of citrus and pine, thanks to Amarillo and Ekuanot hops. Approachable and refreshing, this one is for that everyday IPA enthusiast.
