Farm Ale

Farm Ale is a unique beer made entirely with grain and hops from Tasmanian farms. Our flagship session ale is hazy golden, with a big hop presence balanced by earthy grain sweetness. All the grain for Farm Ale ripens in the Tasmanian summer sun. We use sweet Westminster barley grown on farms in the midlands, silky oats from Kindred Organics in the coastal hills of the North-West and earthy, tart red wheat from fields overlooking the D'Entrecasteaux Channel just up the road from us on Bruny Island. Generous amounts of Helga, Ella and Cascade hops grown in Tasmania’s Derwent Valley contribute tropical fruit and citrus notes and a refreshing bitterness. Dry hopping (steeping hops in the beer post-fermentation) gives Farm Ale its characteristic freshness.
