Hill Farmstead thread

Hmm ok, I guess my plan of spending a full half day out there is going to have to change.

it doesn't appear to be set hard in stone, but 2 drink limit where a drink is a 375 mL bottle, half a 750, or one draft pour. if you have bigger groups to split bottles with you can try more bottles, obviously, but they're not gonna let you just hang out and drink there all day.

but there are a lot of good drinking spots in reasonably close range!

Wow ok, good to know. Thanks for the info.

As others have mentioned I'd just go and get my growlers/bottles, have my two drinks, then head to Parker Pie. Honestly the draft list at Parker hasn't been amazing the last two times I was there (only 1 or 2 HF offerings), but I think thats been mostly bad luck. Either way the food is awesome and there will be plenty to drink.

Grab your growlers and go for a hike sounds like a decent idea.

Was just about to post that. Me and my wife love hiking so I'm thinking get there early and grab some growlers for a mid hike break. Did this in Portland and loved it. Growler of E9 Nectarberry at Mirror lake was pretty awesome.

april rain along with the ground thawing can leave things really muddy. i'd have alternate plans if it was me.

You should be good. I'd recommend Elmore Mountain for a nearby hike.

Not super close to HF (45min-1hr away), but still a hike I've done in early May with good results before. If it's a nice day, you can get some pretty bad ass views from the Fire Tower at the top.

Anyone know the bottling dates for Dorothy (Citra/Equinox), Dorothy (Mosaic) and Florence (Stainless). Any help will be much appreciated

Wonderful day at hill. Ann onsite today ! It was ******* awesome. 2014 3f kriek and sue onsite looked like a decent amount of bottles left in the cooler.

Anyone know the bottling dates for Florence (Stainless).

Do not want. Anyone been a fan of this batch over other recent batches?

 

[GuzzleMcBrew]

That puncheon Florence was the truth. Rivaled Cellarman when I tried them together.

 

[iong516]

Same for 7/14 Florence next to Bernice. Wonder how many puncheon bottles I have hiding in my closet...

I need to get a 7/14 bottle to side-by-side with 4/30/15 Flo because the latter is one of the best HF beers I've ever had.

agree. the 4/30 is the magic batch for me. that batch is absolutely fantastic

 

[eb1]

Did 7/14 in January and thought it was good, not magic. Will be doing 4/30/15 in the next month, will report back (on the edge of your seats?).

quite likely those were gifts for him... he was visiting... they may be batches that were released...

Art could be the still one

In one of the comments he did say it was getting waxed now so thats a good sign. I hope Flora comes out though, need it.

 

[bahnfire]

That looks to be a Flora variant (fruited) label on a 750ml, which to my knowledge has never been a thing released publicly. Interesting.

I see... it is indeed a future release of Art. I loved the last batch. One of the best beers I've ever tasted in my life.

You're right i didnt even notice that. Looks like the color of the plum labels but the text on the bottom looks to small to read

 

[Os]

looks like the plum flora 375 label put on a 750... may not be public release thing
