Dorothy (1921-1994) was our grandfather’s sister, Hill Farmstead Brewery rests upon the land that was once home to her and her 13 siblings. In her honor, this hoppy Farmstead® ale is crafted from New Zealand and American hops, our distinctive yeast blend and water from our well. Dry hopped, unfiltered, and naturally carbonated, this is the ale that I dream to have shared with Dorothy.
New iteration. Farmstead ale brewed with wheat, fermented with Brettanomyces, and hopped with Citra. Reminiscent of Wheat is the New Hops.

Sample from 75 cl bottle. Milky, golden color with a bubbly, white head. Fruity aroma with yeasts, bretts, citrus, wheat malts, barnyard, very complex. Taste is bitter. Finishes dry and bitter with a rich fruitiness. Excellent.

Craft Clerkenwell. LKS 15K bash. Big thanks to Leighton for more HF rarities. Hazy gold beer, good white head. Palate is airy and semi dry, fine carbonation. Tangy sweetish fruits. Some floralness. A white wine tang. Mellow spice. Lightly tangy floral finish. It’s a nice Saison but that’s it.

Light-medium sweet flavor with tangy lemon, tangerine, light rindy bitterness, funk. Medium bodied with average to lively carbonation. Super clean finish with a bit of rindy bitterness, melon, lemon, tangerine, funky, damp hay. Outstanding. Just so drinkable.
