This is The Farm Brewery's signature Farmhouse Ale fermented with our own house yeast strain from right off the farm. It has s a light bodied beer with the refreshing aroma of basil and a touch of watermelon on the back of the palate. The fruitiness of the yeast makes this an exceptional choice for a great summer beer.

A weird one where the strong herbal nose is nice, but its strength and mix with watermelon notes are strange - almost minty. Prickly carbonation and light feel are nice.
I'd strongly suggest letting this warm a bit to bring out some of the watermelon and quell the herbal notes a tad.
This may mellow but in this sitting the basil/herb was a bit overpowering. I liked the weirdness of it, but I'd taste it before grabbing a full pour to be safe.
