With one foot in the old world yet firmly rooted in the new, we present this dry-hopped interpretation of a farmhouse ale. Made with a blend of Connecticut-grown grains, American and European hops and our well water - fermented with a modified version of our house mixed culture and naturally carbonated in the bottle.

On tap at T�rst, pours a lightly hazy yellow blonde with a small white head. Aroma has plenty of rustic saison yeast, moderate funk, and some tangy dry-hopping. Flavour is tangy and rustic, with plenty of rustic saison yeast, farmhouse funk, and tangy dry-hopping. Nice hop expression to complement the bugs. Very good.

Draught at Row 34, 9/3/18.
Straw-golden, chill-to-lightly hazy, with a small, white head atop showing moderate retention.
Nose is a lovely mix of light grain, floral noble hops with a healthy herbal tinge and just-a-touch-juicy, yellow fruit-like American hops. Light-to-moderate lactic acidity mixes with just a hint of acetic acid and a good deal of fruity, gentle, funky Brett. Malts are sparse, yet there is enough biscuit, cereal and light honey to easily balance.
In the mouth it's soft, very fruity, with light tartness at best, gentle, fruity, funky Brett and chewy wheat-like textures with tight carbonation. Mixed ferm character is quite unmistakable, as well as the American hops, but neither are crude or dominant like they are in so many American mixed ferm "saisons". Ample, yet well-attenuated malts, and just the right amount of bitterness from the hops. No alcohol or flaw. Lovely.

4 oz. draft at the brewery. Flavor is ligjt funky and tart but... have to say, after so many APA and IPA’s today, I am digging it. Nice lasting tart, funky finish. Lemon juice acid.
