Half Acre Marty Stouffer’s Wild America
From Half Acre – As a brewery this is our first “tribute beer.” A beer brewed specifically to pay homage to someone or something that we feel lent an interesting twist to life. With that we give you Marty Stouffer’s Wild America, a barley wine in honor of wild life’s quintessential badass.

Brewing something people should know about?
Since 2007, The Full Pint has been where craft beer fans get their news. Breweries and beer brands can reach them too.
Aroma: Peaches and spicy sweet malt.
Taste: Super bitter hops and grapefruit held together by some sticky, moderately sweet malt. You will notice the alcohol, but it’s not out of control.
Mouthfeel: Full bodied with modest carbonation.
Overall: A nice hoppy barleywine, blurring the lines between it and a double IPA. Very enjoyable, I wouldn’t bother aging this, I’d drink it now.
