Hill Farmstead thread

[Don2]

One has hit its peak and is starting to roll downward. I'd say 3 >= 1 (depending on storage). I'll report back after 2015 Norma and my vertical

Yeah 3 was pretty close when we did it a couple months ago. 2 tasted like a different beer to me.

 

[OnryAndMean]

Thanks for all the feedback. Guess I'll give it another shot with a list to pick from. Maybe someone will give me a combo they'd take.

I never have more than a dozen or so bottles of Hill in my cellar at any given time. Keep drinking the darned things. FWIW Florence makes for an awesome "anytime" saison.

*Edit* thanks for the info on the Norma's. likely going to drink 2 in the next week or so and let 3 age for a bit.

 

[ncaudle]

seeing the way most of you are rating the Norma batches I must be the only one here who didn't care for batch3, or could foresee aging improvement. after I drank 2 bottles I quickly traded away my other 3... we even opened batch 2 and 3 back to back a month or so back and batch2 was so superior to batch3 it was hard to tell it was even the same beer.

Got it done for Norma+Peleg, which I'm okay with

Sarrasin is def phenomenal. Had like 3 pours at FOFA and couldn't believe how much better than the bottle it was and the bottle was amazing.
I def need to make FOFA a regular event to attend. Was my first ever Beer festival and def will always be remembered. The share the night before was awesome (thanks DonFrap and everyone else there) even if I was driving that night and only had a few samples. At least I didn't hit that moose. vonnegut21 SteveC32 IndysDad innuendobrewskiman63

Is anyone looking for the amber syrup? I've got an unopened bottle I could trade, considering how slow my progress has been on the bottle I opened

What are you looking to get for it?

 

[OnryAndMean]

What are you looking to get for it?

I got a few interested parties already, but I was just thinking $4$ (amber was $40) with HF beers, like the case limit saisons.

 

[ThatsThatDude]

After OnryAndMean gets taken care of, I would be interested in the same type of deal with my extra unopened bottle.

HF Saisons would work?

 

[ThatsThatDude]

HF Saisons would work?

[Os]

Yup.

[ThatsThatDude]

Do want. No HF stuff to trade though

 

[OnryAndMean]

Damn, that' worked out quick for ThatsThatDude ! I'm still waiting to hear back from the first guy who messaged me lol

 

[JbrewRI]

Everett back on tap now, just in time for my visit next week.

Anyone else heading up next Friday?

 

[Respirologist]

Any guesses how long Everett will last ?

 

[OnryAndMean]

If anyone else is interested in the amber syrup, it's still available. There's a FT in the "other stuff" forum.

Convivial this week!

Convivial this week!

And Art before end of October. Very small bottle count according to Shaun - almost same as Ann B2.

 

[OnryAndMean]

How many bottles of Ann were released last time?

 

[Jon1]

How many bottles of Ann were released last time?

Bottles were numbered out of 300 but I think only 180 were released the day of the release.

 

[OnryAndMean]

I imagine all bottles sold out the day of release?

 

[Frank1]

Yeah, from what I remember it was their first release people (myself included) got shut out of.

 

[Rootz121]

How long did Florence last this past go around?

 

[Number45]

Had a feeling the Art/Ann releases were going to be small. I just hope it's a sufficient amount of bottles to last a few days, although once word is out on those two I'm sure the masses will descend upon HF.

Florence only lasted like two weeks I think. The case limit was 2 (at least at the start) and it coincided with FoFA and I know many, many people there got 2-4 cases.

The tweet posted about cold hibiscus addition for vastly increased aroma and color made me rigid. That's probably my second favorite HF bottle already, and with even more hibiscus... Yes please
