2018

This Saturday 5/19 from 11:30am-6pm at the brewery we will be selling cans of Vulgar Display of Flower at $18 per four pack. Limit 1 case per person, limits subject to change.
Vulgar Display of Flower (8.5% ABV) is a tribute to an aggressive yet balanced assault on the senses. It blends East-meets-West coast DIPA with our own Equilibrium twist. It is dry, bitter, piny, resinous, yet remains smooth, juicy, and drinkable. This concoction displays the hop flower’s assertive yet delicious nature.

Blueberry things in Copenhagen! Pete and Jeppe at Himmeriget. Pete with the perfectly paired shirt color for the day.

If you are in the Binghamton area on Friday 5/11, we are having a tap takeover with our friends District 96 Beer Factory at Craft. The event starts at 4pm!

This Saturday, 5/12 at the brewery from 11:30am-6pm and alongside Pump The Brakes, we will be releasing There and Back Again Pineapple (6% ABV) at $16 per bottle. In an effort to help these bottles last through the day, we are setting limits at 4pp. (subject to change)

There and Back Again is a tale of a spontaneous fermentation, isolation, confiscation, rejuvenation, mutation, and finally perturbation. This sour American wild ale is a collaborative effort with our dear friend Dr. Jason Rodriguez. We took our house “honey badger” mixed culture (no saccharomyces) and allowed it to ferment and sour over several months before refermenting it on pineapple. The result is a bright and clean pineapple flavor boosted by the tropical expression of our microorganisms. This beer is unfiltered, unpasteurized, naturally carbonated and will continue to evolve over time if properly cellared.

This Saturday 5/12 from 11:30am-6pm at the brewery, alongside Pump The Brakes and TABA Pineapple we will be selling cans of dHop2. $20 per four pack, limit one case per person (limits subject to change)

dHop 2 is a 8.5% DIPA that investigates the interplay between our ale strain and an intensive Mosaic and Citra forward hop bill woven four times into its creative process. It pours a very murky tangerine color, releasing notes of orange juice (with pulp) and earthy grass. The taste is highly resinous, dank-citrus, pine juice, with a chewy mouth feel and a firm and pointed bitterness.

If you are in Copenhagen come say hi to Pete and Will this week there will be a tap takeover featuring our beer at Himmeriget on Thursday during the much anticipated Cantillon Blåbær release!

This Saturday 5/12 from 11:30am-6pm at the brewery we will be selling cans of Pump The Brakes (8.0% ABV) at $20 per four pack. Limit 1 case per person, limits subject to change.
We loved Even More Unbalanced so much that we decided to pump the brakes on it and scale this TIPA down to a DIPA. The same blend of Citra, Galaxy, Denali, Mosaic, and Amarillo pours an intensely hazy tangerine color with a blast of bright tropical mango, pineapple, apricot, and berry. The taste is blended tropical fruit. It remains fluffy but with a proper bitterness for balance.
