Hi-Wire Kicks Off New Farmhouse Series with Volume 1

Hi-Wire Farmhouse Series Volume 1 kicks off a new series of farmhouse ales from the Asheville, North Carolina brewery.

To start off the new line, Hi-Wire chose to go traditional, making Hi-Wire Farmhouse Series Volume 1 a tribute to the classic Belgian-style saison.

We would be remise if the first ale in our farmhouse series didn’t pay homage to those who created the style. A traditional saison, this beer utilizes a classic Belgian yeast strain to achieve flavors of black peppercorn and pear. Flaked oats and wheat create body in the light and earthy saison.

Hi-Wire Farmhouse Series Volume 1 will be available in 22 ounce bottles around the third week of August.

Style: Saison
Availability: 22oz Bottles
Release: Mid-August, 2015
