Hill Farmstead thread

Ah. Unless I hear otherwise, I'll assume Matt was just there and Jean let him taste some different lambics. But, if there is some HF/Cantillon blend getting released, I too will be there. Have been 50% on CD7, but that good bottle was great. The other was a bit buttery.

But, let's wait to hear if there's anything more to make of this other than Matt visited Cantillon. (Didn't he intern there?)

he was taking a week or so to brew with Jean again... more than a visit... question is if it's a second short internship or if a collaboration beer actually came of it...

If Ann drops in mid December there's a good chance I'll make the trip up from SC, meeting up with vonnegut21 in upstate NY. I'm free the week of the 17th-20th and just got my Christmas bonus check.

if it's not next week, I honestly want it to be in January

What better way to say Happy New Year than with an Ann release?

that would be ideal for me as I'm already off the 1st and 2nd but I can't see them doing a release starting on a Friday... I could be wrong though

Forget that, Xmas Eve or Xmas Eve Eve release. Spread the holiday joy.

They're open on NYE. Could do a release that Wednesday

wow.. that would be a killer for anyone not local or not planning on spending new years in VT

I saw that Tuesday opening and it made me curious.. I could do that day.. but would have to leave straight from HF to my brother's in CT

Hoping we see BoT before we see Ann. Already later in the year than when it is usually released.

Don't think they will drop something on xmas week or NYE based on the past few years (traditionally when vintage beers have shown up on the shelf). More interested in flora cuvee anyway!

BoT won't be anytime soon. Shaun just posted on Twitter the other day that due to capacity/storage issues, he still hasn't bottled it.

Bet it'll be an extra $10 since it spent longer in barrels

AS LONG AS ITS CARBONATED.

On that note, any reviews on Works of Love #1?

Tasty. Liked it a lot better than expected. Blonde with some hops. You get a VERY little bit of Earl Grey at the end if you look for it. Good beer.

Yeah, it's really good. Surprisingly so for the description. Great way to warm up your taste buds for a growler of Abner.

On tap, my experience was the same as Dino's. Very little tea.
