VT Beer

Hill Farmstead Edward & Smuttynose Noonan

London Calling & TLA IPA

first trip to Burlington and two places that i needed to try was the Farmhouse for some Hill Farmstead beers and American Flatbread/Zero Gravity for pizza and beer.

Went to the Farmhouse first and all they had was Edward, an american pale ale, 5.2% beer. It was very good, worth the 5 hr drive. Also had the Smuttynose Noonan, a black IPA in honor of Greg Noonan, creator of the Vermont Pub and Brewery who died recently. Also had the Trapp Lodge Dunkel and a taste of a 1 yr old Smuttynose Wheat Wine, on of my favorite styles. It was amazing.

Off to American Flatbread where we sampled at the bar, a Gruit and a Madhava which is a 9.2% belgian pale ale brewed with honey and aged for 7 months with Brett, it was great, we also had the TLA IPA and a the London Calling, a 3.9% session english pale ale. Very tasty for  low alcohol beer. Oh yeah, the pizza and salad where great too.
