Aaron is our barleywine-style ale aged in bourbon barrels. Aaron A. Hill (1785 – 1869) was our great-great-great grandfather who operated the original tavern in North Greensboro. The Hill Farmstead Brewery logo is based upon that tavern’s original sign. In his honor, we crafted this barleywine, which has rested, unhurriedly and undisturbed, for over 2 years in bourbon barrels from some of our favorite distilleries, absorbing the essence of its surroundings and history.

Damn, the barleywine hype is indeed real. Just silly how smooth this is. Incredibly well made and balanced barleywine, raisins, caramel, soft malts. Add to that great bourbon barrel ageing, oak, vanilla, light booze. Awesome.

04-07-20 // Hopfenjünger-Hef big bottle sharing 2020. 2018 vintage. Barleywine perfection. Wow. Sugary sweetness but the sweetness so extremely balanced and embedded. Candied sugar and soaked fruits. Thick velvety mouthfeel. Fantastic bourbon notes.
