A1 weather classic, great with any food you can put on the grill. Fruity notes from the yeast, an earthy, character from the Styrian Golding imported hops and a clean, dry finish, makes this a beer you can enjoy all summer.

Clear gold with an average sized white head. Aroma of light hops, grain some yeast. The flavor is lightly sweet with some light hop bitterness. Sessionable blond ale. I didn’t get any sourness so I don’t know what the farm house is about.

12 ounce bottle. Pours a clear golden color with a small white head. A light aroma of wheat and glue. The flavor also has a glue-like flavor that is off-putting, some grains, light honey and again an odd flavor. Quaffable.

Bottle from Total Wine in Sacramento, CA. Pours dishwater gold with a slight white head. Aroma is light light pitted fruit with a hint of yeast/spice. Med body more or less. Flavor is lightly bready, slightly fruit, dusty/wheaty. Spicy - not to my tastebuds. Summer beer it is.

Tap at Abbey Burger Bistro, Baltimore - kind of a mix of British and Belgian golden ales - the hop profile has a more British slant, obviously, because of the chosen hops - there is a light tanginess and biscuit note that is more like a British golden ale as well - however, there is a light ester profile and spiciness that is more Belgian in nature - lightly honey sweet finish - I enjoyed it.

12 oz. bottle. Pours pale yellow with a thin, white head. The aroma is wheat, lemons, faint minerals, and some biscuity, bubblegum funk. The flavor is sweet, with just a little sour finish. The palate is light, creamy, and efferevescent, with a crisp, clean finish. Overall, this is a nice, refreshing, and balanced beer.

12oz bottle. Poured a translucent yellow color, a touch of white head, could see some yeasts at the bottom of the glass. Aroma was a touch of spice, with a watery funk. Flavor was extremely weak. Didn’t really enjoy this one at all.

Bottle: Poured a bright golden color ale with a medium size foamy head with OK retention. Aroma consists of lightly sweet malt base with light dry hoppy notes. Taste is also an OK mix between some light dry hoppy notes with a sweet malt base and some very subtle fruity ester. Body is average with good carbonation. Drinks easily though lacks character overall.

12oz bottle I bought a week ago fizzes pretty bad while trying to remove the bottle cap. Some of this ended up on the table and the floor. The stuff that made it into the glass looks hazy gold with white head. The aroma is spicy with yeast, has some lemon like acidity, more yeastiness and sweet apples. The taste has sharp yeasty spicy notes and some acidity and those notes give way to softer notes of apples and grains.

12 oz bottle. Used a pint glass nearly clear yellow, lots of carbonation that bubbles stick to the side of the glass. Small average white head, good amount of lace. Light grain and spice nose. Taste is grain, lemon zest and light spice (mostly pepper). Light to medium body. Overall a nice summer beer but nothing to really makes it stand out. Still has some drinkability. I don’t think they should use “Farmhouse” on the label. Really not like a quality Saison at all.
