Farmhouse Style Ale Aged In Chardonnay Barrels for 18 months.

Farmhouse Ale & Ramen
Farmhouse Ales are approachable, parfumey, lightly floral beers with a light body, a lower ABV, and notes of fruits and spices. The beer is often very dry and super effervescent with a distinct bitterness and hence needs a dish that can stand up to it. Since the beer is light enough for a hot summer day as well, the food doesn’t need to be heavy but spiced up to the max. Ramen noodles are the obvious choice here. The distinct yeast flavor matches the umami notes of the ramen and all notes of spices and fruits stand up to the Asian spices in the broth.
Farmhouse Ale
A farmhouse ale - or saison as its also known - is a refreshing, highly-attenuated, moderate-strength Belgian ale with a dry finish. Typically highly carbonated, and using non-barley cereal grains and optional spices for complexity, as complements the expressive yeast character that is fruity, spicy, and not overly phenolic. It features an harmonious marriage of the additive and beer, but still recognizable as a beer.
Even in a craft beer scene as concentrated as the one in San Diego, this place stands out and should be visited if you have the chance. Mikkeller SD has been a true game-changer, not only for us at Mikkeller but also for all of our locations who now suddenly have access to a plethora of amazing Mikkeller beers, brewed in the US and shipped around the world – making fresh American IPAs a common sight in Copenhagen for the first time.
