Urban Farmhouse Ale (previously known as B-side) is a light , crisp and refreshing farmhouse ale. Golden to light orange in color with a floral nose and a dry finish. Urban Farmhouse Ale is brewed with three base malts: Organic Pilsner, Organic 2-row and Rye. [Farmhouse Ale] Northwest grown Willamette, Golding and Hallertauer aroma hops offer a soft underlying bitterness to help bolster the refreshing nature of the beer. The key note speaker in this beer is the Farmhouse Ale yeast.

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.

Piwo saison z lekka nuta kwaskowosci i wytrawnosci, zarazem orzezwiajace i lekkie. Piana srednia i sredniotrwala, kolor zloto lekko metnawy. Typowo farmerskie aromaty i smaki. Spodobala mi sie ta nuta kwaskowa, prawie jak w lambikach

6-way split. :) Didn’t plan to try these but others were interested, so... Murky yellow body, white, creamy thick white head. Sweet malty appley aroma, crackers, soft. Empty, mild taste, light apple, vaguely sweet, clean, drinkable, the epitome of "meh" for the style I guess.

Bottle bought @ bierkompass.de. Pours hazy vibrant yellow with a frothy and fluffy white head that slowly dissipates while leaving lots of trace on the glass. Smell is slightly rustic with crackers, hay, dry soil, minerals, white pepper corns and lemon peal. Taste is very tiny sweet, slightly bitter, tiny sour, tiny estery and tiny phenolic with crackers, lemon juice, hay, dry soil, green banana, minerals, white pepper corns and lemon peal. Mouthfeel is slightly round, sparkling, champagne-like, slightly dry, very tiny tart and light bodied. Finish is slightly bitter and tiny sour with crackers, hay, dry soil, pear skins, minerals and lemon peal. Solid simple thirst-quencher. Enjoyable...
