Tangerine Peel Laboratory

on July 31, 2019 No comments

This Saturday 08/03, starting at 11:30AM at the brewery, we will be selling cans of our collaboration with Foam Brewers, Tangerine Peel Laboratory (10.5 % ABV TIPA). $22per four pack. Limit 1 case per person, limit subject to change.

We went Straight into the Laboratory with our friends from Vermont to bring you something brand new, a triple conditioned on tangerine purée and citrus zest. We started out with a heavy base of wheat and oats and then a big dose of citra before conditioning it on over 600lbs of tangerine purée and citrus zest. We then dry hopped it with additional citra and citra cryo hops. Tangerine Peel Laboratory pours a bright yellow and has an aromas of just pressed, sweet tangerine and oranges. It’s flavor is big, bright, and vibrant mimicking carbonated tangerine juice. It starts off zesty, has a touch of sweetness and transforms into our smooth and balanced #EQjuice finish. This is absolutely the most fun we had in the laboratory yet.

More to come…

Solar Flare

on July 25, 2019 No comments

This Saturday 07/27, starting at 11:30AM at the brewery, we will be selling cans of our new beer, Solar Flare (6.8 % ABV IPA). $16 per four pack. Limit 1 case per person, limit subject to change.

A Solar Flare is a powerful Fluctuation of electromagnetic energy from the suns surface that creates a smaller irradiance on earth, or in this case a smaller beer created from Fluctuation. We used a downsized Fluctuation grain bill along with loads of citra and our energy process for the first time in a single ipa to give you all the tropical flavors you would find in Fluctuation but on a smaller scale. Expect an aroma and flavor of passion fruit, pineapple, mango, and bright citrus with a soft but pointed bitterness, but in a summer crusher form.

Zero Flucs Given

This Saturday 07/27, starting at 11:30AM at the brewery, we will be selling cans of our collaboration with Hidden Springs Ale Works, Zero Flucs Given (10.0 % ABV TIPA). $22 per four pack. Limit 1 case per person, limit subject to change.

Hidden Springs goes big. When they came to the brewery, we wanted to do something over the top. Zero Flucs Given is the hoppiest beer we’ve ever done at Equilibrium to date at more than 10 lb/bbl of citra. We started with a supersized Fluctuation Grain Bill, and for the first time ever, we combined our Maelstrom of Saltstraumen Whirlpool technique with our Energy Dry Hop. As we’ve always expected in theory, there is an interaction between these two process. How? Classified… but its pretty cool.

As soon as you crack Zero Flucs Given open, you’ll immediately notice an aroma of as if SOTL and Deviation had a baby. Fresh squeezed OJ, Mango, grapefruit juice explode out of the can. The flavor is deep, raw, and intense while staying balanced with a fluffy-gummy-bear like body that finishes with our #EQjuice.
Looks like we spilled some beer in this picture, it’s alright, Zero Flucs Given.

Juice = Juice

This Saturday 07/20, starting at 11:30am at the brewery, we are bringing you a collaboration with our friends from Oregon, Great Notion Brewing, Juice = Juice (8.5% ABV DIPA). $20 per 4-pk, limit 1 case per person Limit subject to change.

Juice = Juice was born when we had Great Notion in the lab to review, axioms, hypothesis, postulates, and proofs to derive and fuse our juice tactics together to make a beer bursting with extreme flavor. We used a malt bill of heavy wheat along with a combination of flaked oats and oat malt for the foundation. We whirlpooled heavy with Citra and Idaho 7 and finished it with our absolutely biggest galaxy dryhop to date AND ran galaxy through EQs energy process for the first time.

Juice = Juice pours a bright straw yellow and gives off big big aromas of tropical juice flavors. The flavor follows, with a jumbo medley of island fruits and a touch of dankness. You’ll notice a mild bitterness upfront, pillow like mouth feel midway and a smooth juicy finish at the end making it extremely balanced and drinkable. You probably don’t want to miss this one.

Players

on July 3, 2019 No comments

This Friday 07/05, starting at 5pm at the brewery, we are excited to bring you a collaborative American Imperial Stout with our friends fromThree Chiefs Brewing, Players (11.0% ABV). $16 per bottle, limit 4 bottles per person. Limit subject to change.

When Charles, Nate, Gerard, and Kramer came to Middletown, we took them to one of our favorite local watering holes, Players. After some joking around and a long… long… night of hanging out, jokes became reality and our collaboration was named. Players is an American Imperial Stout brewed with Madagascar vanilla beans, Fiji cacao nibs, toasted coconut, and Mostra Coffee ghost bear espresso. No lactose was harmed in this beers creation. It pours jet black with a beautiful deep tan head. The dynamics of the relative adjunct strength shift as the beer warms and time lengthens. The creamy flavor is a medley of some of our favorite things: coffee at first and then a transformation to chocolate brownie batter sprinkled with toasted coconut flakes followed by notes of vanilla-marshmallow to balance it out. As it’s one of our longest boils yet, the viscosity and body is thick. We recommend drinking this at or near room temperature to experience all the adjuncts have to offer. We recommend NOT cellaring this beer to enjoy its fresh coffee and coconut character.

Walk Under The Sky

on July 2, 2019 No comments

This FRIDAY 07/05, starting at 5pm at the brewery, we are bringing you the next beer in the cloud series, Walk Under The Sky (8.0 % ABV DIPA) at $20 per 4-pk, limit 1 case per person. Limit subject to change.

Walk Under The Sky uses the same amount of oats as Cirrus and WOTS to give you that extremely pillowy mouthfeel, but has a different hop ratio along with a touch of lactose. The biggest difference is the Energy dry hop process we gave it. Like Deviation, this process gives the beer a bolder, brighter, and more tropical fruit cup flavor for maximum juiciness and and drinkability. This beer is smooth, bright, fruity, crushable, and has our #EQJuice finish.

We’ll also be announcing another can, in addition to a bottle that we made with some friends from Cali 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽. You know where to be Friday afternoon.
