Like most of these unfiltered Hill Farmstead IPAs, it\u2019s incredibly cloudy a more burnt orange 3 finger sticky head with nice lacing. Very cloudy.<\/p>\n<p>S &#8211; Nose is extremely juicy. Reminds me a lot of some of the Society series of Double IPAs. Very juicy. Smells sweet with a lot of orange.<\/p>\n<p>T &#8211; Very mild resinous taste, refined sweetness, I get an orange skin and actually floral and herbal taste at the finish. Really hard to pinpoint everything going on here but the hop flavors are very juicy, tropical and floral. It\u2019s really interesting yet so distinctively a Shaun Hill beer.<\/p>\n<p>M &#8211; Mouthfeel is akin to the Society 4, 5 and 6 with a lot of what I tasted recently with some of the single hop IPAs. Not that helpful to people reading this but it\u2019s a nice mineral water mouthfeel accentuating the hops. The overall mouthfeel reminds me of a dryer version of Alchemist\u2019s double IPAs.<\/p>\n<p>O &#8211; In a blind test, I\u2019d say this was an 8.5% IPA with lots of citrus adjuncts, 10 different hops and a very clean yeast. It\u2019s far less than that with such a huge taste. I love it.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a title=\"View &#039;Hill Farmstead Excursions #2&#039; on Flickr.com\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/adamjackson\/16068499958\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img  decoding=\"async\"  style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"Hill Farmstead Excursions #2\"  width=\"\"  height=\"\"  border=\"0\"  class=\" pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/farm8.static.flickr.com\/7484\/16068499958_2940a7d62b.jpg\" ><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"View &#039;Hill Farmstead Excursions #2&#039; on Flickr.com\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/adamjackson\/16068662040\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img  decoding=\"async\"  style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"Hill Farmstead Excursions #2\"  width=\"\"  height=\"\"  border=\"0\"  class=\" pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/farm8.static.flickr.com\/7555\/16068662040_253174352b.jpg\" ><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"4.3 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0AROMA\u00a09\/10\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0APPEARANCE\u00a05\/5\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0TASTE\u00a07\/10\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0PALATE\u00a05\/5\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0OVERALL\u00a017\/20 Thanks Heather for picking this up. 750ML filled 3 days ago split 2 ways in HF&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"apple_news_api_created_at":"2016-03-17T02:25:17Z","apple_news_api_id":"052892cc-13ae-4eb2-a94b-a4862fa80014","apple_news_api_modified_at":"2016-03-17T02:25:17Z","apple_news_api_revision":"AAAAAAAAAAD\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/w==","apple_news_api_share_url":"https:\/\/apple.news\/ABSiSzBOuTrKpS6SGL6gAFA","apple_news_cover_media_provider":"image","apple_news_coverimage":0,"apple_news_coverimage_caption":"","apple_news_cover_video_id":0,"apple_news_cover_video_url":"","apple_news_cover_embedwebvideo_url":"","apple_news_is_hidden":"","apple_news_is_paid":"","apple_news_is_preview":"","apple_news_is_sponsored":"","apple_news_maturity_rating":"","apple_news_metadata":"\"\"","apple_news_pullquote":"","apple_news_pullquote_position":"","apple_news_slug":"","apple_news_sections":[],"apple_news_suppress_video_url":false,"apple_news_use_image_component":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_custom_appearance":"","csco_disable_excerpt_posts_layout":false,"csco_page_load_nextpost":"","csco_post_video_location":[],"csco_post_video_location_hash":"","csco_post_video_url":"","csco_post_video_bg_start_time":0,"csco_post_video_bg_end_time":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[160],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-7780","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-reviews","7":"cs-entry","8":"cs-video-wrap"},"apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pb3IC4-21u","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":2725,"url":"https:\/\/adamchandler.me\/blog\/2015\/04\/06\/review-hill-farmstead-mosaic-single-hop-pale-ale\/","url_meta":{"origin":7780,"position":0},"title":"\u2605 Review: Hill Farmstead Mosaic Single Hop Pale Ale","author":"Adam Chandler","date":"April 6, 2015","format":false,"excerpt":"4 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0AROMA\u00a08\/10\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0APPEARANCE\u00a05\/5\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0TASTE\u00a07\/10\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0PALATE\u00a05\/5\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0OVERALL\u00a015\/20 750ML Growler filled yesterday and split 2 ways in HF stemware at fridge temp (37F).
