Poured into a pint glass. A moderately hazy golden color with a medium-sized white head. Nice lacing in the glass. Aroma was mainly wheat and bread with faint apple. The taste was slightly tart, again with a nice apple flavor. Some floral quality as well. A gentle wheat and bready presence as well. Medium feel and easy drinking. Low bitterness. Really nice and enjoyable.

I would have never guessed this was a Farmhouse. I can smell it a bit, along with bright citrus, but I get no saison in taste. Honey, caramel malt, some spritzy lemon. Cloudy gold. Head becomes thin and hangs on the glass. It's an anytime, enjoyable ale.

Slightly hazy yellow gold color with white cap and lacing.

Aroma of sweet malt with floral hops.

Taste is sensational enough to realize why this Farmhouse Ale is so popular. Rich, caramel malt up front with a mild hop bite. Close to the finish I get something I can only describe as pleasantly fruity. It's bright, lively and a joy to drink.

Medium-full texture with balancing carbonation.

I honestly can't think of any food style I couldn't match this with and don't think I know anyone who wouldn't cheerfully drink it.
