Hired Hand Brewing Co. Menu (Update 2026)

A trio of fresh Norris Farm (Starksboro) Homestead Hops and 100% Peterson Quality Malts (North Ferrisburgh) creating a crisp hyperlocal Pils. 5% ABV 18.3 IBUs.

Big coffee nose with layers of velvety, semi- sweet cocoa, lactose and dark coffee with a creamy, slightly bitter finish. 5.5% ABV, 49 IBUs

We double dry hopped with massive amounts of Cascade & Chinook hops, in addition to using large amounts of Chinook, Nugget, Centennial and Cascade hops from our friends in South Starksboro, VT.
