Everett (1908-1939) 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 porter is crafted from American malted barley, English and German roasted malts, American hops, our ale yeast, and water from our well. It is unfiltered and naturally carbonated. Decadent in its depth, with a complex backbone of chocolate, coffee, and malty sweetness, this is the ale that I dream to have shared with Everett.

Pours deep brown into a tulip. Mocha head with good retention recedes leaving scant lacing. Dark molasses and chocolate aromas. Soft and dry with dark chocolate, soy and licorice upfront turning to mildly charred mocha in the lasting finish.

Enjoyed on tap at the brewery on my first visit, Easter weekend 2018 trip. Very dark brew with a yellow beige head, good stay and lacing. Dark fruits aromas with molasses and hints coffee, nuttiness, apples. Roasted malts with a nice light bitterness, lingering coffee notes on the tongue. Quite a nice robust American porter.

750ml bottle shared by luttonm @Johnny’s Off License. Thank you Matt! Nera, densa, impenetrabile, schiuma scura color cappuccino, molto persistente. Al naso straordinario tripudio di tostature, tavoletta di cioccolata artigianale fondente, gianduja, caffè. In bocca è perfettamente bilanciata, attacco dolce, cioccolatoso con finale caffettoso e amaro perfetto, molto lunga e persistente a dispetto della gradazione alcolica contenuta. Corpo pieno, lunghissima, cremosa, vellutata al palato, carbonazione media. Semplicemente accademica. L'Everest delle Porter.

Draught @ Cooper’s Craft & Kitchen - Chelsea. Opaque dark brown with foamy beige head, coffee beans aroma, medium carbonation, slightly sweet mocha-roasted malt taste with alcohol undertones, smooth and thickish body, long bitter mocha finish. Very very good, as expected.
