Hill Farmstead Bottle releases

I have a friend driving up this afternoon was there a decent amount left?

 

Plenty I assume. I'd be surprised if 100 people have been here so far

 

Only about 120 people so far. Will be plenty of bottles remaining through the week and into at least the start of next week...

 

So we can probably not expect any bottles to be avaliable on 8/7?

 

Difficult to say. You can expect whatever you want to... =)

 

Ahh... so THAT explains why so many people have such an entitlement complex.

 

A man can dream can't he? Thanks for the reply and I look forward to visiting HF, bottles or no bottle.

 

Shaun, does this mean you will keep the limit at 4 for the weekend?

 

moved to 2 per person. per Facebook.

 

I got there around 12:30. Bottle line moved fast, got in the growler line for 2+ hours. Well worth it, met some awesome BA's from Philly (hope you guys like that Crooked Stave, thanks again, man!). If I only lived closer, I'd be at Hill Farmstead every other day!

 

The Arctic Saison is in.

 

For anyone reading this or my post do NOT take Chesley Hill Road -> Dane Rd -> Kensington Rd in Sheffield either. I went up last week and my GPS took me down this road. It is incredibly rocky and bumpy. I made it 3/4 the way down only to find the road washed away with a four foot drop off. How my Audi made it through that road and back is beyond me. You can easily pop a tire or loose an oil pan on that road with a car with a low clearance. Lost about half an hour because of that detour.

 

wtf are you guys driving?

Take Rt 16-->Taylor Rd-->Jaffin Flats-->Hill Rd.

 

Can't trust the GPS is the lesson here. It would have taken me directly across from Taylor Rd, but the GPS cant distinguish from sketchy unsafe roads and normal ones.

 

Or: Greensboro Rd. from Hardwick > right at Willey's store in Ggreensboro > straight and long uphill about 2 miles > left at the first T > left at the fork onto Hill Rd. It cannot be said enough: GPS SUCKS UP THERE - DO NOT RELY ON IT. Use the text directions on the site or a Google map (NOT their directions) - or risk getting winched out of a logging road by the local farmer (or Shaun's bro with the tractor!)

 

My cousin is one of those local farmers who has towed out many a flatlander who got lost and went down the wrong road. I've told him he's missing a great business opportunity since he's a nice guy and does it for free. He could have a nice place in Florida by now if he charged $50 a pop...

 

whoda thunk a map or printed out googlemaps directions would be the most reliable?

 

You guys need to update your GPS devices.

 

I have a place in Lake Eden. Google shows a route from my place that is only 20 miles to HF. I tried it once and it just isn't worth the wear on my car even with AWD. I drive the way that's closer to 35 miles total and it still takes the same amount of time. Those roads up there are no joke under the best of circumstances.

 

If someone can bring me some heady topper tommorow at HF, i can bring you some cantillon gueuze and kriek. Can also do the same for a Anna and Clara.

Just message me here before 6:00 in the morning so i can put the bottles in my cooler.
