Harlan is Edward’s slightly more assertive alter-ego, an America India Pale Ale that is copiously dry-hopped with Columbus, Simcoe, and a hint of Nelson Sauvin hops.

On tap at Sabatinis in Exeter pa early this evening.
Splendid looking beer. Slightly hazy pale amber body with a small head which leaves dripping rings of lacing. Aroma is strongly herbal and dank. The taste however, is not
Initially there is a piney bite which quickly moves to a strong grapefruit flavor, and a long lasting finish which doesn't dry out. Another wonderful beer from HF, who unlike many ipa brewers, manage to make each beer different and full of character. Loving this one.

Murky amber pour, small head that fades to a thin raft of fine bubbles. Smell is of white wine and citrus pith. Taste adds some pine, maybe a touch of pepper, and finishes dry.

I’m surprised this isn’t rated higher. Stone fruit, white wine, & a touch of pith on the nose. Palate boasts an underlying citrusy sweetness w/ a predominance of peach, pine resin, & floral, peppery hints. Finish is bitter but clean and mildly dry.

16oz. Can I to a BT pint.
Pours a hazy, slightly darker orange. 1 finger rich white head. Layered lace. Nose is citrus, grass, and grapefruit. Moderately aromatic. Beer opens grass, citrus, bark, and a touch of wax. Lychee undertones. End is citrus rind and grapefruit. Very balanced. Body is light with moderate carbonation. Dry on the palate and soft going down. Bone dry aftertaste.
Really sessionable. Great flavor packed in a mellow body.

On tap at hill farmstead.
Had this next to an experimental ipa and they tasted very similar. Both New Zealand vibes. This one has a bit more farmhouse ness to it. Less of the new school hop powder crap. A bit more traditional. Mango, melon, honeydew, floral.

Can from Jeff, thanks for the tick.
Pours a hazy murky dark yellow color with a frothy off white head that slowly recedes. Earthy grassy citrus and topical fruits. Gritty sweet bread to counter.
