Paying homage to our friends up north while trying not to copy them, Farmhouse is a cross between a classic American cream ale and a Farmhouse ale. We made this beer in collaboration with our friends at the Brat Haus in Richmond, IL to keep us Illinoisans from crossing the border to get a Wisconsin staple. While being on the drier side, the malty backbone is evident. German Lemondrop hops provide a bright citrus note in both flavor and aroma. The finish is light and fruity with a lemony kiss lingering.

Had on tap. Mostly clear golden body with a full white head and sporadic lacing. Smell has a nice airy yeast with sweet malt, cereal grains, lemon, and flowers. Taste has the yeast as the star right away, some sweet corn malt, citrus esters, and a floral toned finish. Feel is airy and yeasty is a bright malt backbone, easy drinking and soft, but sweeter than most. This is a really well done cream ale
