One bottle of Hill Farmstead Samuel, Released July 2025 Bottled March 2023
Bottled March 29, 2023 Samuel Hill (1820-1899) was Edward’s great-uncle and brother of Ephraim. His story is many-layered and singularly impressive. He served in the Union army at the Battle of Gettysburg. An early agricultural innovator, he held several patents for milk cooling and cream separation. He moved a house, midwinter, with horses from North Greensboro to Greensboro Village. He also helped build the first road from Greensboro to Greensboro Bend.
Among our most cherished bottlings, Samuel begins with a foundation of buckwheat, spelt, and Vermont wildflower honey. Transferred to wine barrels and left to its own becoming, the beer quietly matures—an homage to Edward’s great-uncle and his enduring legacy. After more than two years of slow, attentive bottle conditioning, we are pleased to share a new expression of this contemplative offering.
Guided by the essence of both Le Sarrasin and Vera Mae, Samuel seeks to weave their defining elements into a singular entity. As with so many of our Farmstead® ales, it will continue to evolve over time, rewarding patience with greater aromatic depth and textural nuance for years to come.
