The beer is conditioned with 2 brett strains and wine yeast. The Nelson hops provide white wine flavors while Brettanomyces add a juicy quality to the beer.”

Let’s get started!

Aroma: Bready malts, citrus, herbal, tropical and grassy hops, yeast funk and stone fruit.

Taste: Funky yeast, biscuity Pilsner malts, citrus, grassy and herbal hops and spice, sweet and tart stone fruit and a touch of clove.

Overall: Crisp and clean, Prairie Artisan Ales ‘Merica American Farmhouse Ale is outstanding.  This 7.5% ABV offering is easy drinking, a touch hoppy and super delicious.
