Earl (1911-1985) was our grandfather’s brother; Hill Farmstead Brewery rests upon the land that was once home to him and his 13 siblings. In his honor, this Stout is crafted from American malted barley, Flaked Oats, English roasted malts, American hops, Organic Guatemalan Coffee, our ale yeast, and water from our well. It is unfiltered and naturally carbonated. A silhouette of coffee and malt – an embodiment of complexity and drinkability, this is the ale that I dream to have shared with Earl.

50 cl bottle @ home. Bottled 13.02.2016
Aroma has ash, coffee and some licorice. Flavour has pot coffee, lots of ash, some grapefruity hops and gooseberry bush. I like the licorice and ashy tones here. Oh, and also the coffee tones are nice. But alas, this is too hoppy to be completely enjoyable. Also CO2 level is a bit too high.

Draught at Mikkeller Bar, Victoriagade. Pitch black with a fluffy, tanned head. Roasted aroma with dark malts, chocolate, coffee, roasted, bitter notes. Toasted bread and red berries. Taste is bitter-roasted. Medium to full body with a creamy texture and a soft carbonation. Finishes dry and roasted with lingering dark, bitter chocolate and toasted notes. Lovely Stout.
