Brewed at the Commons, Field’s Edge has been hiding in their cellars since February 2016. This foraged farmhouse ale was fermented with yeast from both breweries and finished with Douglas Fir tips, honeysuckle, dandelion root and leaves. The result is a rustic farmhouse ale with a complex floral character, balanced by a dry, lightly tart finish.

Draught at BA Return of the Belgian Beer Fest, 9/17/16.
Lightly hazy, bright marigold-golden body is topped by a medium-sized, well-retained, white head.
Lovely acidity mixes with plastery yeast with very rustic minerality. It’s funny I just had del Arboles the night before this, as this is coincidentally another phenomenal use of pine (the fir tips). In neither aroma nor flavor is it overdone, and adds a light juiciness, spiciness and just all around bright, green character. Add to it that this has dandelion, another easily overdone ingredient, and it’s pretty impressive, all told. Light tartness, wheat dryness and perfume-like herbal/spice character on the finish. Quite elegant and the adjuncts sit in the background.
In the mouth, it’s got a soft, wheat-and-biscuity-malt-like texture, with tight carbonation and a high attenuation. Light citrus, yeast and light fir tip acidity collect on the end, with delightful minerality and lots of hay/grain-like character. Elegant, and soft through the middle, with bright, tart, crisp notes on the finish.

Draft at Oedipus International Beer Festival. Hazy golden with a white head. Aroma of peppery saison yeast, citrus, light barnyard and manure funk. Flavour is light sweet, light moderate bitter and a touch sour. Above light bodied with light carbonation.

Sampled from tap at the Oedipus International Beer Festival 2016. Slightly hazy, golden yellow with a white head. Sourish-fruity, a little funky aroma of lemon peel, pineapple and grass. Slightly bitter, grassy-fruity and a little funky taste of lemon, pineapple, some ginger and grass, followed by a short, slightly bitter, dry finish. Medium body, slightly effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Nice!
