| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | May 1, 2007 The Farmhouse Ale poured beautifully into my tall pint glass with a short head that belied its fathoms of taste. The fruit and floral aromas told me more about this ale I as dove in for a taste. The golden red ale tasted differently each time as a hundred different colors came to my mind. A light sense of hops came around to remind me this was an ale and not just a glorious find. It also had a malty background, unlike other saison interpretations I have had.
My hat is off to the Smuttynose Brewing Company for creating such a great ale.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 1, 2007 a saison that didn’t offend at all. pleasantly decent, and not overdone with all of the things these beers do (thinking that people don’t have tastebuds). typically spicy and yeasty with good body. earthy is a good word. i am not a big fan of spicy saisons that are earthy. light candy citrus smoother in the flavor pattern.

Lightly spiced toasty biscuity malty aroma. Body starts with a full, sweet caramel maltiness with some dry grassy earthy notes and a good, sweet, slightly warming finish. A nice saison. kwoeltje (1322), Manchester, Missouri, USA
