Clara (1906-1969) was our grandfather’s sister; Hill Farmstead Brewery rests upon the land that was once home to her and her 13 siblings. In her honor, this Grisette is crafted from American malted barley, Vermont Organic Wheat, European and American hops, our distinctive farmhouse yeast and water from our well. Unfiltered and naturally carbonated, this is the ale that I dream to have shared with Clara.
Clara is conditioned in barrels until the acid/texture had developed to the point that we like. Sometimes this is 3 months. Sometimes this is 5 months. In the early days of the brewery, Clara was stainless steel (prior to adding puncheons in 2013). Since 2013, it has only been conditioned in puncheons, with a few larger Foudre batches over the years. Ultimately, it is always conditioned in wood.
