Traditionally farmhouse ales were brewed on farms in the French and Flemish regions of Belgium. These beers were born out of necessity as most water was not potable and the farmers needed a light, refreshing low alcohol beverage to offer the hardworking farmhands.

Big bottle at Svijet piva (World of Beers), Zagreb. About a year ago. Shared with lovely Anja, Shotgun Fred and Marko. Murky yellow, strong medium white head. Malts, apple, a bit metallic. Light sourness, apple vinegar, not bad. Malty finish, kind of sweet aftertaste. There are both + and - for this one.

Sampled from tap at the Oedipus International Beer Festival 2016. Clear, pale straw yellow with a white head. Fruity-grassy, slightly sourish and a little floral aroma of lemon peel, pineapple and grass. Slightly bitter, grassy-fruity, floral taste of lemon peel, some pineapple and some grass, followed by a short, slightly bitter, moderately grassy and dry finish. Medium body, slightly effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Nice!

Golden color. Slightly funky nose with wheat and lemon. Light body, very carbonated, very yeast driven. Decent but not outstanding.

Bottle served in a tulip. It pours a beautiful light gold with a dense head of white foam that lingers. The aroma is soft, wheaty & spicy cloves. Great soft body. The taste is a bit floral, soapy, sweet, sweet tarts, wheat and just easy to drink. I like it, it doesn’t wow but it’s a solid mellow easy sipper. I am happy I got it half-off from World Beer Market.

Bottle to glass at BCS. Hazy golden straw color with a huge pillowy white head. Big saison yeast nose with aromas of pear, banana, clove, cinnamon, orange and lemon zest. Taste is more of the same. Lovely carbonation and light body. Super refreshing. Taste is more of the same with a light peppery finish. Wonderful!

Bottle, 750 ml at Svijet Piva. Courtesy of Marko and others. Pours medium yellow with white head. Malty, some citrus but mostly yeasty. Bit spicy. Too much on the yeast side for my taste.
