Aaron is our barleywine-style ale aged in bourbon barrels. Aaron A. Hill (1785 – 1869) was our great-great-great grandfather who operated the original tavern in North Greensboro. The Hill Farmstead Brewery logo is based upon that tavern’s original sign. In his honor, we crafted this barleywine, which has rested, unhurriedly and undisturbed, for over 2 years in bourbon barrels from some of our favorite distilleries, absorbing the essence of its surroundings and history.

Bottle at bumba. Aroma of malt, raisin and sticky vanilla. Taste of sweet raisin, bourbon, molasses and malt. Good, but overrated, just as most hill farmstead beers.

2015/17 Aromat ciut rozczarowywuje moze, ale smak wynagradza. Slicznie beczkowo-figowo-melasowe w smaku. Faktycznie eleganckie piwerko. 4.4
