Description
Casa Agria Specialty Ales is a small brewery focusing on mixed fermentation farmhouse style ales and barrel aged wild ales in Ventura County, California. Like much of California, Ventura County agriculture and farming has played a vital role in the development of the communities here throughout time. The mild climate and rich soil allows for several harvests throughout the year making it one of the most valuable resources here. For these reasons the farmhouse style is a perfect style to refresh during a warm dry winter and a mild summer day alike from one harvest to the next. Further influence is found in the food ingredients and diverse cultural traditions of the people who shaped the California of today.

Well it looks like mud, no head, so pretty ugly. On the nose, it’s yeasty with a touch of that yeasty, diacetyl and lupulin powder you get from green beer. Bitter, really yeasty, and that messes it up. The bitterness doesn’t show much in the way of bright hops, mostly just that same sharp bitterness. Alcohol in the finish isn’t bad as a way to lend balance, but the malts aren’t doing anything to help this. An unbalanced mess.

500mL can, pours an opaque peachy golden with a small white head. Aroma is very pithy, with lots of stone fruits, resinous hops, citrus and lots of yeast. Flavour is very cloudy, with lots of yeasty notes, resinous hops, citrus notes, and stone fruity pith. Very pithy and yeasty. A little jumbled but it's done very well. Nice stuff.
