Farmhouse Pale Ale is our American interpretation of a hoppy saison. Belgian pilsner malt provides the base for an abundance of American hops and our farmhouse yeast to shine together in this refreshing ale.

14 oz tulip draft at The Publick House in Brookline, Massachusetts. The pour is a hazed orange yellow golden with a smallish off white head. The aroma is floral hop with a nice herbal spice and yeast. The taste is a great blend of straw grass malt, the floral hop and finishing with the herbal spice of the yeast. The palate is medium bodied, unfiltered, with natural carbonation and a clean yeast finish. Nice beer, reminded me of Crane Farmhouse IPA.

Bottle at home, from CW online, 15/08/20. Moderate haze on a golden blonde pour topped with a Mr Whippy style white cap that stays for the party ... a handsome looking beer. Nose is pale malts, bread dough, grass, duty hops, lemon rind, light barnyard esters, dirty berry skins. Taste comprises toasted grains, lemon rind, dusty hops, stale bread, farmyard esters, grass, light herb, balanced yeast twang. Medium bodied, fine massaging carbonation, semi drying close. Tip top saison ... all the style boxes well and truly ticked ... surprised this doesn't score higher !

330 ml bottle. Medium gold pour. Frothy off-white head is long lasting. Robust bready malt aroma. Flavor mirrors nose. Added notes of yeast and lemon. Slightly spicy, bitter. Minimal funkiness. Moderate hop bitterness. Dry peppery finish. Decent.

Pours with huge perfect foam and a nice clear golden hue. The aroma is soft banana, yeast, mellow sweet hops. Flavour is a deep and chewy rustic grain affair. Chalky and boozy aftertaste detracts, but otherwise this is very nice.
