Hill Farmstead (2020)

#2020

 

No one can technically stop you from doing it, but if you're just getting craft beer it's definitely stupid and entirely unnecessary.

That said, I've been feeling pretty sick lately and I'm probably going to end up in the hospital so I'm definitely going to stock up on HF to sell on the grey market. How else am I going to pay my medical bills?

 

Alchemist and Hill Farmstead do contactless curbside purchasing. Submit your order online in advance. Just don't stop anywhere else.

 

Oh I know I was just messing around. I can wait, as much as it pains me.

 

What if you hit a snow squall in the NEK and slide off the road requiring road-side assistance? God forbid, what if you slid off the road and required hospital care or emergency services?

Not agreeing or disagreeing with your statement. Just playing devil's advocate as it relates to taking unnecessary long distance trips.

 

Speaking of which...those of you who know Kerrie Montgomery, one of the original servers at HF and more recently at Parker Pie, slid off a local road up there in her new car and hit a tree night before Thanksgiving. Totaled her car, and broke her clavicle from the seat belt. Out of work, no car, and no health insurance. Surgery Friday. There's a GoFund Me going to help her out. Please consider for all the times she has poured you a beer at Hill over the years.

Thanks for killing the buzz.

Sigh.

*Donates*

 

Kerrie got through surgery ok, and is rehabbing at home with her hubby's help. Her GFM goal was reached yesterday, and she is grateful to all who donated in support - over a hundred kind folks.
Happier Holidays to All!

 

Good to know. Thanks for the update.

 

Did they completely switch all canned beer to 16oz cans? I love the 12ozers, especially for the double IPA’s, but just curious if it’s official.

 

I’d hedge a bet that it’s based on the can shortage. 12oz cans are the hardest to find. 16oz cans seem a bit easier to come by these days.

 

So I got a can of the RR Edward from a friend.

It's interesting. Edward is in there for sure but the bittering hops are a bit overpowering. Never thought I'd call Edward "dank" but here we are.

That said, this absolutely needs to be brewed again (and again), but under a different name. It's a fantastic pale ale.

 

Agreed, my take was that the Amarillo was the driver on this boat. I also really enjoyed this version.
