Really nice beer! Right down my alley. Love the farmhouse character and how smooth it is for 7%. I would be really proud if I brewed this. Great job!

Great beer. Aroma: Tart, slightly fruity (like red berries). Flavour: some grainy malt pils behind the tartness, which is quite pleasant and not sharp. Not much palate funk from the brett yeast, so it's more of a session / gateway sour beer that's very approachable. Finishes clean and crisp. Having tasted some of the pin cherry yeast entries in the comp I'm not sure that yeast is pushing through very well in this beer, so you may be able to leave it out if you want to brew it again. It'd be interesting to see if the same recipe with just the Amalgamation yeast would be appreciably different. Great job on a very tasty beer.

Nice fruity aroma with a bit of peppery phenols. Low bitterness, the malt character is low in the background and the fruity esters (apples, mix of fruits, and a bit flowerey? that blend together) are coming full force in the flavour. There is a pleasant fruitiness in the finish. Nice carb, nice dryish mouthfeel. Very well made, thanks!
I had Big Spruces 100 yesterday and I find you can tell there they share part of the same character.

Mabel, Margaret and I greatly approve. Farmhouse is a style I am warming up to.

Re: 2017 Advent Beer Day 3 (Dec 3rd) Split Personality
Fundamentally a good beer, but something seemed a bit off. I've had the pin cherry yeast before and didn't like it, so I'm wondering if that was it.

Re: 2017 Advent Beer Day 3 (Dec 3rd) Split Personality
I didn't participate in the beer exchange but was lucky enough to get my hands on one. I love it. Tasted a bit thin when I first poured it...but after it started warm all the flavors started to come out. I've brewed a few saisons over the past few months so this is right up my alley. It's excellent...i'm proud to have come runner up to this beer!

Re: 2017 Advent Beer Day 3 (Dec 3rd) Split Personality
I'm not sure I can. There was a hint of 'green'. Not acetaldehyde, per se, but it seemed newish. There was something else, but I really can't identify it (my wife is excellent at that - should have had her try it). It was all pretty subtle. When I first tried the pin cherry yeast in the Big Spruce beer, all I could taste was toothpaste, so as I said, maybe I was picking up the yeast in some weird way.
I drank the whole thing pretty easily, though, so I wouldn't concern yourself with my weird taste buds.

I second this. But the more and more I drank this one. The more I like all the different flavors and complexities in it. Great job! It makes me want to try more saisons now.jmacdonald wrote:Farmhouse is not my style but did not mind this.

I should have taken notes while I was drinking it, my bad. I liked this one a lot though, I want to start making more farmhouse type beers.
