Hill Farmstead thread

[Os]

But like natejohnson mentioned, I can go pick up a sixer of Pivo for $12. Mary is a fine pilsner, but say it's $5 for 500mL like I mentioned before (which granted I have zero idea what HF may charge or what size bottles they'd package in) you're paying almost double for Mary. What does Hill charge for a 2L of Mary, currently?

yeah, definitely some good points... perhaps I'm just enamored w/ the idea and am not thinking of the price. Bottle conditioning would certainly make it more costly to produce... but it sounds delicious.

I couldn't disagree more. Most pilsners have hopping rates similar to IPAs, so I'm not sure why you think they do well in bottles for months at a time.

If a pilsner is handled properly it will definitely hold up for several months and taste relatively the same. Is 6 too high, maybe. How about 4 months.

I'm with bum732. While I wouldn't mind being able to bring back a few bottles of fresh Mary from one of my visits, I don't see why they'd be any more shelf stable than the pale ales.

Please refresh my memory . . . HF retail boxes hold how many bottles?

12, at least for the 750ml and 500ml bottles.

I have a 6x750ml box from a few years back, I'm assuming they switched to the 12 bottle cases when they upped production?

A crossing my fingers for a Greensky Bluegrass return to Higher Ground next September.

If this happens I'm so in! I'll fly/drive from Chicago just to listing to Greensky with you Jeremy.

 

[skrip]

as a huge pilsner fan i really hope this happens!

How you walk away with only 6 bottles of Soigne is beyond restraint imo.

If I could defer part of paycheck into bottles of Soigne it would rival my 401k contribution.

I'd probably hit 960 on 8 cases of Anna/Arthur/Florence/Soigne, then another 150 or so on Elab 5/Flora P&P/George/Fear&Trembling. Add in growler fills and it would be getting close, so probably over.

 

[tehzachatak]

I am probably going up with the GF on Friday and am worried about the status of our relationship given the money I'm likely to spend.

Really prepping for that hurricane with those numbers.

How'd you not get hand selected for CW??

Best to test that now before buying Christmas presents.

Don't forget that 6% tax. It gets hefty when your bill goes over four figures. Haven't been over $1000 in a while but definitely would this week...

 

[JulianB1]

Probably because pbyoung doesn't want to deal with storing my mountain of beer for 6 months at a time.

If there was any kind CT soul who is going up this week and would be able to GPIUFMB some of the saisons available I would spend a little time on my knees for them and repay the favor when I go up in 2 weekends (HF or Alchemist). Obv would pay cost and chip in gas/convenience fee.

This last batch of Soigné is just aight. Felt the flavor was muted compared to what I remember in the past, but its been a little while since I've had it.

Might be weird.. but drinking this batch of Soigne side by side with a fresh margarita was pretty damn tasty
