Hill Farmstead News for Summer 2012

Our bud Shaun Hill over at Hill Farmstead Brewery fills us in on some new tasty projects he’s working on. Read about new beers Beyond Good and Evil, new variations of Everett as well as Jasper. Cheers

Early next year we will begin releasing beers from our Bourbon Barrels.  This includes a new beer tentatively titled: “Beyond Good and Evil” – An Imperial Stout brewed with Wheat and Maple Syrup…

We’ll also begin releasing various barrel treatment versions of “regular” release beers.  Such as Bourbon Barrel Everett with Cacao Nibs and Coffee Beans…

We are also working on a beer called “Jasper” – named after our cousin Jasper Hill (which also happens to be the namesake of our neighbors and the  best cheesemakers in the country… Jasper Hill Farm and the Cellars at Jasper Hill).  The beer is designed to be used as a wash for the rind of their cheese Winnimere, and is to be released in bottle conditioned format at the same time as the cheese… for pairing.

On the collaboration front: We just brewed a High ICU Pale Ale at Dieu Du Ciel! last weekend.

Hill Farmstead is projecting 1,800 bbls for 2012.  That’s all for now.
