Saison du Fermier is the harmony of new and old. It is robust and has the paler color of modern saisons yet it is balanced with the brightness, depth and rustic character of the wild brettanomyces and lactobacillus found on our family's Missouri farm. This farmhouse ale was fermented and aged in wine barrels for several months.

750mL bottle at a tasting. Cloudy golden beer with a small head. Its like a funk sour candy beer. It has sharp but not too sharp pear esters. That makes a sour, estery, and funky beer without the negatives of those aspects. Fun beer.

Full glass on draft during RBSG 2014 Bus Tour at Perennial. Hazy apricot yellow with off-white head. Aromas of citrus, tart fruit, floral notes, sweet fruit. Tastes of tart fruit, vinegar, tropical fruit, wine. Medium body with a dry finish. Low carbonation. Really nice.

THX!!! to Fux. Gorgeous looking bottle. Hazy golden with a creamy white head. Nose is quite interesting mix of sweet white dough with lactic sourness, sweet white wine with funk, faint white chocolate, sweet, funky and quite a bit of wine. Taste is full of white grapes mixed with funk and heavy on the white wine oak plus funk, touch barnyard,… Lactic touch is far smaller in the taste than in the nose. Lively full body. Quite an interesting and fun beer.
