COLD BREW

Always something brewing to pull deer in! Built for consistency from first bite to last freeze.

There are blends that hit early and blends that shine late, but very few hold deer through the entire season without fading. With Cold Brew, we focused on creating a balanced, dependable mix that keeps attraction steady from early fall through the harshest winter conditions.

By combining fast-growing, highly palatable species with cold-hardy, resilient grains, this blend doesn’t just transition through the season—it layers attraction. Early forage draws deer in quickly, while later-season components take over as temperatures drop. Several varieties continue to regrow under browsing pressure, ensuring your plot stays productive even during peak usage.

You’ll also benefit from a mix that provides strong nutrition, excellent tonnage, and soil-building benefits that carry into the next season.

Early to Mid Season

Forage Oats – Highly palatable and fast germinating; excellent early draw; digestible and browse tolerant

Mid to Late Season

Winter Rye – Extremely cold hardy; continues growing in tough conditions; highly graze tolerant and dependable during late season stress

Radishes – Rapid growth; strong attraction; helps break up soil and improve nutrient uptake; deer consume both tops and bulbs (mainly later in season)

All Season Performance

This blend is designed for overlap and resilience—as one forage peaks, another is ready to take over. The result is a plot that stays active longer, withstands pressure, and continues producing when others fade.
