About this beer

Hexaploid is a Spelt Farmhouse Ale brewed by Urban Family Brewing Company, weighing in at 4.2% Alcohol By Volume and packaged in a 19.2oz (500ml) bottle. The label prominently features the name “Hexaploid” in a stylized, serif font against a background of vertical, wheat-colored stripes. Beneath the name, "Spelt Farmhouse Ale" further defines the beer’s style. This brew is described as “alive” on the label and is requested to be kept cold; it’s brewed and bottled by Urban Family in Seattle, Washington. While specifics of the hop and malt bills aren’t provided, the defining ingredient of spelt contributes to a rustic, subtly grainy character expected of farmhouse ales, offering a complexity beyond standard barley-based beers.

The beer’s profile is likely characterized by a light body and a moderate level of fermentation esters—fruity and spicy notes common to the farmhouse style—derived from the yeast. The use of spelt adds a distinct earthiness and a potentially nutty nuance complemented by a delicate sweetness. Governmental warnings regarding alcohol consumption are printed on the left side of the label, as is standard practice.
