Commercial Description:
This delicious farmhouse ale is named for our Jack Russell, who struck by a car, bounced back in fine tenacious Jack Russell fashion, and is brewed for those of us who knocked down, have picked up, dusted off and carried on undaunted. Golden, naturally cloudy, bottle conditioned and dry hopped for a perfectly refreshing balance of spicy malts, hops and yeast. Please enjoy our beers in good health, And look both ways when crossing the street!

Bottle; poured a yellow with a large frothy white head. Aroma of yeast, apple, must and bread. Surprised at how much I enjoyed this one. Flavors weren’t amazing, but they all came together well. Flavors of apple, yeast, banana, spice and citrus. Palate was as expected. Good for the style.

A very fruity, crisp ale. Spicy with citrus and oak in both the nose and palate. A good beer from a fine brewery.

Pours a cloudy yellow with a frothy white head. Has a authentic dusty farmhouse aroma. Taste is sour fruity, spicy and funky. Too much bubblegum for my liking. Still has enough going on (lemon zest and coriander) for me to enjoy this. Finishes dry and watery.

Wow, this beer surprised me. Somehow, living in michigan, I had only had a sample of this a long time ago. Glad I picked some up. This is a gateway beer into funky goodness. Just a touch. Poured a yellow/golden color with a nice white head. Diminished and then a thin layer lasted. Aroma is a little bready with a hint of sour. Taste is some grapefruit, touch of barnyard funk, bit of hops. Very rounded and nice. A joy to drink. I am not exactly sure why, but I loved this beer.

Single 12 oz. bottle from Broudy’s at Jacksonville Beach. Pours a murky gold color with a lot of white head that lasts. Aroma is slightly sour and a bit of yeast. Taste is tart with what seems like grapefruit and a touch of sourness. Not too bad.

My palate does not agree with this brew. Dry and very sour, hazy gold. Lots of grapefruit in the palate and nose. Wish it had more hop spice, but that is just be my palate talking....

Bottle. Poured hazy gold, fluffy head with nice lacing. Grapefruit and sour, but drinkable and dry. Taste opened up as it sat longer. I love both saisons and JP. This is a great beer.

Bottled. Poured cloudy yellow with a huge fluffy white head. Aroma had the classic sour JP smell I have come to know. Wheaty, banana, some lambic notes, and a slightly sour bitter dry cobweb in the aroma as well. Tastes like you are drinking a haystack on a farm while inside a barn. Very barnyard esque.
