In our continued exploration of Farmstead® ales within various contexts and processes, we present a new beer: a lively, delicately tart, oak-aged ale with a malt bill comprised of 90% wheat and 10% barley, and hopped exclusively with hand-selected Hallertauer Blanc hops from Seitz Farm—our agricultural partner in Wolnzach, Germany. Bottle conditioning since early 2018, we have closely monitored its progress, anticipating its optimistic arc of development.⁣

Pours a lightly hazy, pale, pale golden yellow, with smallish head. Aroma is sour wheat, wild yeast, some wood. Flavors follow--a very complex combination. Clean, crisp mouthfeel. Very good saison.

Very nicely done, and a good mix of barrel and light hallertau hops. Some pineapple, some grapefruit. Pours clear golden with pretty good head. Light tart finish. Nice balance overall, and very pleasant. Unripe apricot or bitter plum is pretty big here.

Draught at source: pours pale yellow with white head. Aroma is light citrus, light funkiness, wheat. Taste is slightly tart, lightly fruity. Pretty light and mellow.
