Farmhouse Saizon style of beer was nearly extinct before being resurrected by American craft breweries in recent years. The Farmhouse style originated in France hundreds of years ago where it was brewed on farms during the harvest season. This is a very complex style, and the Lena Farmhouse is slightly sour with tartness and yeast tones, medium bitterness, and semi-dry.

Aroma is caramel/light toffee,spices and malts. The flavor is malts, caramel, mild tobacco/dark fruit, slight earthiness and a mildly sweet/funky tart finish.

Definitely sessionable. Farmhouse Ale with some body to it... Who knew that could be a thing?
My husband drank most of it when I wasn't looking. How rude.
