Edward (1917-2002) is our grandfather; Hill Farmstead Brewery rests upon the land that was once home to him and his five children. In his honor, this American Pale Ale is dutifully crafted from American malted barley, a plethora of American hops, our ale yeast and water from Edward’s well. It is unfiltered and dry hopped.

Draft. A hazy golden beer with a lazing white head. The aroma has notes of citrus fruits, straw, hops, and malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of lemons, oranges, straw, hops, and malt, leading to a bitter finish.

On tap at the brewery. An unclear, orange colored beer topped by a dense, off-white head leaving lacings. Orance zest and a generic citrus scent in the nose. Not much maltyness going on. It’s full-bodied and with a good carbonation. Bitter flavor with oranges, citrus and some pale malts. Lasting bitter finish with a good dash of oranges. Rather lovely this one. 150610

Location: Growler from the brewery, 7/8/15
Aroma: Aroma of grapefruit, pale malts, some tropical fruit, grass, and a bit of caramel
Appearance: It pours a murky yellowish-orange color with a frothy head and some mid-heavy lacing
Flavor: Tastes almost as good with a nice fruity and malty sweetness and a good hop bitterness
Palate: It is medium bodied, nice and clean, but a hint too fizzy, with a nice, dry finish
Overall Impression: Another excellent beer from Hill Farmstead. No surprise. I guess my only minor flaw is the carbonation is a bit too high. That is a very minor flaw though. This is an excellent beer. Totally legit.

This was on tap at Whetstone Station Restaurant and Brewery.
This was poured into a tulip.
The appearance was a hazy orange gold with a slim quarter finger’s white head. There wasn’t any lacing.
The smell had a light floral and light pine.
The taste was semi-sweet through the pine. There’s no aftertaste and it had a dry finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light on the body. Carbonation hits as an APA but loses its temper on lack of bitterness.
Overall, its good, but nothing over the top. Maybe if I would have had it in its proper glassware, it would have been better. I don’t know, but I’d still try again.

En fut au prohibition pig. Au nez on y perçoit des agrumes et du conifère. En bouche, le poivre se rajoute aux agrumes et le houblonnage laisse libre cours au sapin et à la résine de conifère en abondance. Très ronde en bouche. Très rafraichissante. Exemple typique d’une excellente pale ale américaine.

Northeast Bucket List Trip Beer #99. Keg at the brewery. Pours a hazy orange with a large creamy tan head. Good head retention. Aroma of tropical, citrus hops and pale malt. The taste is earthy, tropical, citrus hops, nutty notes, pale malt. Medium bodied, mild lingering bitterness, well balanced.
