Dave's BrewFarm BFF V
Dave's BrewFarm BrewFarm Funk V. (For Vendetta? Visitors? I'm sure it means something…not Valerie, she already got her beer.) 6.9% ABV.
This is a dark brown one, with ruby tinges and a toasty tan head.
Aroma: FUNK! a little vinegar-y this one, with fruit below.
Taste: Ah! Fresh and refreshing! Dark fruits, with a twist of oak. here come the tannins! Medium-bodied, long, tart finish. Mmmm, this is a complex, terrific, juicy thing. A little plummy, touch of raisins, …figgy. (Just love to say "figgy.")
Deee-licious.
So, I'm collecting all the BFF beers. This is the fourth one, this one called V. I've had one, two, three, and Vee. Which one am I missing?
The Farmer in the Dave says: "Deep, dark mahogany with notes of pit fruits, and nice tart finish. Pale, pils, Caramel 20 & 120 and rye malts, brown sugar and hopped with Warrior, Brewer's Gold, Centennial, and Bramling Crosss hops. Fermented with a Belgian yeast strain."
And it went well with grilled chicken and rice. (Eating lots of rice lately.)
