A Blended Famous Saison, this bottle comprises a blend of two beers fermented in two of our favorite barrels, both of which have been in our possession since the early days of our humble little #BrewCafé. The first beer was brewed in the late spring of 2016 - a bright little simple saison - that we sent to let rest in a Hungarian oak white wine barrel and would have typically become the base of an iteration of one of our “Emptiness” series of beers. The second beer was brewed in the early summer of 2016 - the recipe for SaisonHands - and laid to rest in a well used Chardonnay barrel that would have typically become the fabled HandFarm. Both beers took a year long slumber before being blended and bottled at our Dispensary almost exactly one year later in June of 2017, and then conditioned in the bottle for over one year before its release. A truly beautiful trip down memory lane, EmptinessFarm evokes notes of late harvest Riesling, a hint of vanilla, a gentle acidity balanced by candied citrus peels, and fresh squeezed guava juice.

1.5 liter bottle shared at DACBE New Year's share. Pours a glowing clearish straw gold with a full 2 fingers of white foam. Pineapple, fresh citrus zest and oak on the nose. Creamy oak notes on the palate with more crisp and clean saison notes. Some pepper, grass and mild yogurt lactic acid notes. Refreshing and crisp. This was killer.
