The beer that built the brewery. Our Belgian inspired Farmhouse Ale, Cheval D’Or is complex and golden, featuring floral notes with hints of pepper, citrus, and bubblegum, with a dry enough finish to make it incredibly refreshing.

Can. Golden colour, just a slight haze. Estery nose, pears, a bit sticky. It's about that on the palate, too. Leaning towards sweetness before a touch of apple and acidity comes in at the end. The esters are just below the point where I'm getting annoyed. Low bitterness.

(473ml can c/o my girlfriend, source unknown to me) Pours basically clear bright gold with an average white head. Notes of lemon, a bit of tart stone fruit, light esters, lots of cereals and fresh baked bread, some sulphur like in some pils, some phenols/herbs/dried flowers/white pepper axis notes through the sip into the finish. Light body with a slick texture and soft filling carbonation. Alright stuff with food, feels like a Belgian blonde as much as a saison but drinkable.

47,3 cl can @ Timo A’s Maritimes Tasting. Thanks!
Aroma has odd apple tones and some leathery notes. Flavour has some harsh malt, cereal, grapefruit and bretta tones. Also apples. Saison meets cider and pale lager. The result is – well – not that great. Drinkable stuff though.
