Abricot du Fermier is our delicate and aromatic Saison du Fermier aged with apricots in French Oak wine barrels.

Bottle courtesy of Carl. Hazy vibrant pour with a frothy goldenish white head. Heavy fruity apricot nose with cracker malts, lemon, white pepper corns, light brett & light rubber. Sour, fruity & tiny funky taste. Dry, tart & slightly puckering mouthfeel. Sour apricot-heavy finish. rubber smell bugs me but there’s some awesome apricot character here.

Bottle: Poured alight peachy color ale with a bubbly head with OK retention and minimal lacing. Aroma of light apricot and tart notes is pretty refreshing and pleasant. Taste is a nice mix of tart notes with some fresh apricot notes and a white wine-like finish. Body is about average with good carbonation. Acidity level is kept at a reasonable level. Very refreshing with solid mix of complexity.

Bottled. A hazy golden beer with a yellowish head. The aroma has notes of apricots, malt, and brettanomyces. The flavor is acidic apricots, brett, and wood, leading to a tart finish.
