Difference & Repetition 3
Hill Farmstead Brewery

 

 

 

 

 

On tap at BeerShop, NYC.
Pours a hazy straw orange color. A moderately large head forms a nice foam cap, displays decent retention and yields sticky lacing.
Aroma opens with citrus pith and tropical fruit juice. Notes of tangerine, orange, mango and pineapple. Light aromas of bready malt, hint of grass and faint herbal dank.
Juicy overall with dry, even slightly tart, and muted flavors of tropical fruit, citrus and herbs. Flavors of grapefruit pulp, orange pith, lemon, dry mango, pineapple, guava, even pear. Grassy and earthy hops flavors evoke prickly pine needles that gently scrub and balance the middle palate. Little to no hops bitterness. Muted dry bready malt flavor.
Medium bodied, moderately carbonated and smooth drinking. The finish is dry and pithy.
Very sessionable and flavorful. I could crush several of these.

 

 

 

Hazy golden color. Aroma is herbal and grassy with linden flowers notes. Taste is more earthy, even a bit nutty, light bitterness on the finish. Quite light and easy drinking.

 

 

 

 

Opaque orange-yellow with a thick, persistent white blanket leaving a few waves of lace on the glass.

Smell is orange, pineapple, mango and even green apple with some spicy accents of dank cannabis and smoothing vanilla creme.

Taste is spicy eucalyptic pine with toasty cracker, orange zest, orange rind, dense shortbread, mango and a hint of weed.

The moderate body has a mild, soft carbonation and a paper dry finish.
