Farmhouse Ales Iron Hill Lancaster

Got this great email thought I would share since these are my favorite before I went Gluten Free (GF).

Farmhouse Ales for the Fall

These rustic country ales were historically brewed in Belgium and France, by farmowners to provide sustenance to their workers, and have survived until now since they have such amazing flavors and complexity. We have just put on two different farmhouse ales in celebration of the coming of fall.

Biere de Garde
is our version of a French farmhouse-style ale,
it is deep amber in color, smells of baking bread, toasted malt, and caramel, the flavors follow the aroma with a touch of spice in the finish. A true taste of fall in a glass.

Saison is our Belgian farmhouse ale. It is a cloudy golden color, very dry and light in body, with complex flavors of tropical fruit and spice. This beer also pairs great with almost any type of food.

And we have plenty of other fall beers on the line up for the next two months. Be on the look out for
Oktoberfest, Rauchtoberfest, (our smoked Oktoberfest), Abbey Dubbel, Munich Dunkel and of course Pumpkin Ale.

Hope to share a beer with you soon.
Cheers,

Paul Rutherford head brewer -Lancaster, PA
