Citrus Coolship
Hill Farmstead Brewery

 

This one pours a slightly hazy golden yellow color, with a small head, and a little bit of lacing.

This smells like white wine, damp hay, funky citrus, orange peel, tart sour candies, and lemon.

This beer has been a long time coming, and it’s really cool to actually try it! There’s a solid but subtle citrus character to it, floating on top of some genuinely lambic like qualities here. There’s some funky wine and oakiness here, but also a damp, hay-like, barnyard-type funk here. There’s a slightly minerally finish, with a candied lemon, almost Sweet-tarts like candy sweetness on the back end.

This is lighter bodied, with a very manageable and soft level of acidity.

This was a real treat and pleasure to finally try.
