Art is the wine barrel-fermented and aged version of Arthur (1922-2005), Edward’s youngest brother as well as his namesake Farmstead® ale. In his honor, we selected beers aged in French oak wine barrels for between 1 and 3 years, and further matured it in the bottle beginning in February of 2019. This experimental bottling has been packaged 'still' — without the addition of yeast and sugar, in an effort to explore the intersection and parallel universes inhabited by both beer and natural wine.

I like Art with bubbles better than the still version. No matter what... Still pretty excited to get to try this HF beer!

My wife and I each enjoyed a bottle pour at the source. This beer is absolutely phenomenal. The highlight of my two visits to Hill Farmstead. Beautiful aroma and the flavor is perfection! A beverage that gives you pause, makes you contemplate. Inspiring and world class. Wow…

2016 Vintage, bottle pour by Mike S on 7.28.21. Nice golden orange with large bubbles, not at still as expected. Beautiful vinous notes on the nose, nice barrel characteristics. Taste is surly Art but not as clean as expected, some sourness on the finish with some chardonnay notes. Some carbonation in the mouthfeel
