Spastic Art

Returning to the roots of the Farmhouse Ale, by extracting sugars for fermentation from as many sources as can be grown locally, we threw in a slew of different types of grain and Red Kuri squash, Kabocha squash, and potatoes. The vegetables contribute not only fermentables but also starches that give the beer a fairly opaque appearance and a load of flavors and mouthfeel. The squash adds a bit of nuttiness and sweetness, along with hints of avocado toast and roasted apple sauce. A dusting of Fuggle hops provides a subtle woody and floral backbone that melds the bouquet from the squash and potatoes to the spicy and floral esters from the Saison yeast. Spastic Art Farmhouse Ale is a beer that might sound peculiar in concept but is sheer art in the glass. Show Less
