Ithaca Cold Front Saison / Farmhouse Ale 89 out of 100
Backbone: French Wheat, French Munich and British Roasted Barley Malts, Noble Hops, Belgian 'Farmhouse' Yeast ![]() Copper Penny, Brown Sugar, New Carpet, Sour Cherry, Pear Skin, Raw Onion, Cardamom ![]() Banana Bread, Granny Smith Apple, Espresso, Chicory, White Pepper ![]() $11 | 6x 12oz bottles Pucker up, sour and biting bittersweet fruit juice rule this tart and unusually shadowy winter style saison. A pleasant parcel of dryness marks the exit - for me one of the many enjoyable characteristics of this style of beer. This brew has a uniqueness about it, standing out among the noisy rabble of 12oz winter seasonal six packs. I am always interested and happy to support breweries that do their part to take new or forgotten styles to the masses. Definitely locate a few bottles of this to share with some folks that have never heard of a saison or farmhouse ale. | ||||||
