pFriem Dry Hopped Farmhouse Ale

◎ Appearance

A luminous hazy gold beneath a tall, persistent white head. The cloudiness from the Belgian farmhouse yeast and modern dry-hop additions creates an inviting, slightly opaque appearance. Carbonation is crisp and visible, supporting the foam's fine structure and retention.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with stone fruit and citrus: gooseberry, mango, and lime zest from the Krush, Motueka and Nelson Sauvin dry hop charge. A peppery, spiced character rises from the Belgian yeast fermentation, layered beneath a soft, slightly nutty grain backdrop from the Pilsner malt, wheat and spelt blend.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and bright, with white grape and stone fruit taking the center stage. The mid-palate remains soft and slightly nutty, the grain bill offering a gentle, well-rounded base without heaviness. Bitterness is clean and measured at 25 IBU, finishing dry with a mineral quality that refreshes rather than lingers harshly.

◑ Finish

The finish is notably dry and mineral-driven, with the farmhouse yeast's attenuation leaving no residual sweetness. A clean, modest bitterness fades quickly, leaving the palate refreshed and ready for the next sip.

Serve at 8–12°C. Saison is refreshing but complex — cold works, but slightly warmer shows its farmhouse character.

The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.
