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.

Bottle. Lovely golden yellow, cloudy, with a fine head. Grapefruit nose, a bit pissy, brett, lemon, wheat. Tart and funky flavor, pissy, bitter, great grapefruit and light to medium tropical fruit as well. Soft, silky body with nice, fine carbonation. Very much in character with their house flavors. Very drinkable and tasty.

750mL bottled 7/2/15, shared with Nelson on 6/3/16.
Big white head, very well-retained, tops a light golden body with good clarity.
Perfumey brett mixing with mild tropical fruits and tons of wheat goodness; lots of cereal-graininess that matches the dry, but fruity brett notes. Good cleanliness, with strong minerality and finishing with moderate citrus characteristics. No alcohol, despite being 7%, no flaw.
Very well-carbonated and wheat-driven body lends grain, chewiness and plenty of dryness. There’s light honey to be found, but it’s very dry, and given to a mild guava-pineapple character from the brett. Doesn’t seem alcoholic or sweet, but still comes off a bit heftier than most of the other farmhouse ales from Hill. Lots of body from the malt and wheat, with tight carbonation intensifying this. Good, but I don’t find any reason to drink this over the table version.

Draught at WarPigs Brewpub, Hill Farmstead Day. Fading white head leaving solid lacework behind. Hazy golden body. Mid-dry aroma of sappy wheaty fruits. Comfortable mixed taste profile of citrus, wheat and tropical fruits. Brett to a maching bitter ending. Well bodied. Nice and refreshing (shared with KimJohansen and Skinnyviking, Copenhagen 12.05.2016).
