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.

Hazy golden with big white head. Aroma is some berries, some sweet and sour fruit, some toast, light smoke, pears and mandarin. Taste is bitter juice with not much sweet fruit. Complex but very dry. Good.

Hazy yellow with a massive and very fine-bubbled head. Smells flowery, very sour, a bit like a wild farm field - as it should ;-). Flavor is quite bitter, lots of citrus, very complex.

Corked bottle at Black Christmas 2018, bottled 2017 09 06
Cloudy blond colour with large head. Extremely funky, lively, a bit lemony, with citrus zest, and some astringency in the final.
Lovely.
