Kent Falls Field Beer

Field Beer is the first beer we produced as a brewery. Meant as a philosophical flagship it is a beer that has gone through several iterations. We brew this beer to highlight profiles of individual barley farms and the maltsters who allow us to make beer with their harvest. The beers that came to define the farmhouse “style” were often brewed for those very farmhands who worked the soil that spawned the beer, but today, modern agriculture and brewing make up a far more elaborate web. With Field Beer, our farmhouse ale fermented with a mix of indigenous microbes cultured from our farm, we pay homage to saison’s intrinsic connection to the fields. Working with nearby farmers and maltster, we work to preserve our beer’s vital connection to local agriculture by highlighting where our malt came from for each batch. Each iteration of Field Beer will offer familiar fermentation flavors – dry, delicate, and complex – while highlighting the nuance created by varietal and geographical differences, as well as an individual producers’ manner of cultivation.
