Abner (1867-1953) is our great grandfather; Hill Farmstead Brewery rests upon the land that was once home to him and his fourteen children. In his honor, this imperial pale ale is dutifully crafted from American malted barley, a plethora of American hops, our ale yeast and water from Abner’s well. It is unfiltered and double dry hopped.

Growler from Chris for bottleshare: pours lightly hazy orange with a white head. Aroma is dank fruitiness, some pine. Taste is pretty sweet, some underlying bitterness. Slight bitter aftertaste. Very ripe tasting. Large.

Draught @ City Hops (10/2/19). Extremely hazy rich yellow-orange with small foamy whitish head, faint citrus aroma, low carbonation, medium bitter citrus-mango-pineapple taste, faint alcohol undertones, smooth thin body, long medium bitter finish. Very well covered ABV, smooth and tasty.

Tap pour into goblet from The Dive Bar, Worcester. Appearance is cloudy orange with finger-width white foamy head with excellent retention and soapy lacing. Aroma is mix of grapefruit and citrus fruit. Taste is nonspecific fruity--hard to place--like a grapey, yogurty, fruit salad. Not tropical. Palate is light-to-medium bodied with smooth texture, soft-to-average carbonation and crisp finish as taste. Overall, pretty strong aroma and flavor but not terribly complex and fairly indistinct. Enjoyed it but falls short of a classic for me.

Draught @ Armsby Abbey, Worcester, MA. Smooth, super juicy fruity and hoppy with some tropical notes, pine, floral notes, citrus and grass. Great, another super well balanced DIPA from HF.

Flip top bottle thanks to Toby pours out golden topped with a white head. Nose is big citrus pineapple sweet hops a little tropical notes and a bread malt. Taste is more of the nice crisp hops wow very nice and no chance you can pick up the 8%.
