Moeder Seizoen - 6.5% Foeder Saison. An old F&M classic returns for a fresh debut in the Foeder. We mashed Pilsner malt from @DeerCreekMalt, hopped it with lots of noble European hops, and fermented it in an oak foeder with our Foraged Yeast and whatever wild microbes (brett and bacteria) that have taken up residence in the wood. We’ve lovingly referred to this one as Foeder Moeder, and now you can too!
This beer feels like a new incarnation of its old self, with huge notes of ripe ripe peach and apricot jumping out of the glass; it has a balanced acidity and oak character, with whiffs of salt spray, miscellaneous herbs, some Fruit-Roll-Ups, and the Saison Joie de Vivre.

Bottle sample courtesy of Carl. Pours very hazy burnt orange with a small frothy white head that leaves some sparse sticky trace on the glass while dissipating. Smell is tiny malty, slightly fruity and slightly funky with sourdough crackers, lemon juice, lime juice, clotted cream, hay, dry soil, noble rot grapes, pineapple, star fruit, barnyard, leather, lemon zest and hints of apple cider vinegar. Taste is tiny sweet, sour, slightly malty, tiny fruity and slightly funky. Mouthfeel is soft, round, tart, slightly dry and medium bodied. Finish is sour with rustic sourdough malts, citric and lactic acidity, heavy barnyard funk and hints of yellow tropical fruits. Good but not very bright nor bouyant. Would have loved a crisper malt base and fruitier funk.
