In honor of Edward's sister, this version of our honey Farmstead® ale-crafted from organic American malted barley, European and American hops, Geteme honey from Ethiopia, and our distinctive farmhouse yeast-aged for 10 months in our puncheons-more than Anna, not quite Ann, but enchanting all the same. Sourced from the high-altitude Gera forest in southwestern Ethiopia, Geteme honey is derived almost entirely from the Geteme tree. Bottled 2023.

This one pours a hazy golden orange color, with a small head, and a good bit of lacing.
This smells like orangey funk, chamomile tea, white wine, grapefruit peel, apricot, and peach.
Anna is already a delightful beer, and this adds a really pleasant silky and velvety variant to it. The honey itself feels stronger, adding more sweet, floral, and almost tea-like notes, with stone fruit and orange, some white wine, and a touch of oak.
This is light bodied, but silky and super soft, with a great drinkability.
This is a fantastic update to an already great beer.

Almost indistinguishable in appearance from WoL: Keeping Together, this appears as a slightly darker yellow-gold but with a similar level of just barely blurry haze under a short, bubbly white blanket with somewhat lower retention.
Exhibiting less oak than Ann, while as vibrant as Anna, and frothier in body than it looks, I experience tart meyer lemon, but at a super quaffable level of acidity, countered by pleasant straw, white wheat and honey. Floral even, it's got a super juicy mango-passion fruitiness making it quite tropically delicious as it finishes quenchingly semi-dry. Classic and delightful Hill farmhouse character returns upon revisit.
I'm having a hard time deciding if I like this or the Keeping Together collaboration more, but in relation to Ann, being less intense on the oak front actually makes this my "just right."

Revisiting two months later, I'm tasting more wild honey--after having already had several beers, oddly enough--but with an herbaceous accent. It's just got a really refreshing tartness pairing with a pleasant brett-like quality, but milder. Lovely.

Pours a hazy golden color with a bubbly white head. Expected minimal amount of lacing and head retention from the style.
Strong aromas of white wine, apricot, marmalade, and oak. Grassy, herbal, and lightly funky.
Taste has notes of white wine, pears, Belgian yeast, lemon zest, oak chips, and a bit of honey. Lots of grapefruit as well. Very citrusy.
The feel is medium bodied with exceptional carbonation. Crisp, lightly tart, and very dry. Absolutely perfect for the style.
Overall, this is yet another wonderful farmhouse ale from HF. Tart, complex, yet shockingly easy to drink. It's Anna moreso than Ann, but honestly could easily be another ancestor entirely.
