Hill Brewing to Release Four New Beers

Hill Brewing is in the process of adding four new beers to their line up.  A Golden Blonde is already on tap and a Pumpkin Ale should be tapped in about two weeks.  Hill is being secretive about the next two.

I'm thinking at least one of the two upcoming beers will be the Peach Wheat that was brewed for breast cancer awareness.  Hill Brewing invited Stephanie, a local cancer survivor, to come in as a guest brewer.  A portion of each Peach Wheat sold will go towards finding a cure for cancer.  Hill Brewing says the Peach Wheat should be ready in two to three weeks, so keep an eye out for the pink tap handles.

Hill Brewing seems to be on the right track.  They are on my list of places to check out the next time Im on the Missouri east coast.

UPDATE
I just recieved this email from Joe Lonero, owner of Hill Brewing

our pumpkin is our first test batch due to be ready next week. it looks to be about 7.3 abv. we used a ton of caned pumpkin in the mash and will only use a cinnamon and nutmeg blend in the cellar tank after fermentation (no vanilla) we also used a California yeast to try to keep down the off flavors.
the other two beers we are working on one will defiantly be a peach. already brewed a small batch with a Stephanie (a home brew novice that survived breast cancer) for our October breast cancer push .part of proceedes will go to breast cancer. the other is still on the table thinking a bur ban stout or a vanilla lager any suggestions or favorites ?

we are in the process waiting to receive our wholesale license. we also have purchased a 4 head meheen bottler.  so yes in time we will be on the shelf's.  kegs first than bottles. over the net 6 to eight months. with St Louis first than kc and Illinois area. in house we will have 14 in all now have 10. and so far the pecan brown seems to  be the big hit

thank you so much for the inquiry we are going a 100 miles a hour and have been very well received by all.  got to love it what a blast, 7 days a week 16 hours a day
Sounds awesome!
