Farmhouse Classic Brett Lambicus Variant
A secondary fermentation with Brett Lambicus adds its characteristic funk to Bellwoods' classic Farmhouse Saison, transforming a familiar profile into something earthier and more complex. The liberal dry-hopping with both Noble and American varieties creates a floral hop register that intertwines with the Brett's own aromatic signature — leather and mild pepper emerge alongside lemongrass notes, giving the beer a layered, almost savory quality. The result is less the bright, zesty Saison of convention and more an introspective, contemplative pour: the kind of beer that rewards attention during a long evening, when you want complexity over refreshment.
