The whale of hops, Riwaka is named after the small settlement in the Tasman District of New Zealand’s South Island. Due to the climate needed for growth and a smaller production yield, it’s one of the most coveted hops from New Zealand. Riwaka’s abundant oil content is nearly twice that of its parent variety Saaz. With its high oil content and a 1:1 ratio of alpha to beta acids, this hop is known its strong sweet citrus notes and extreme flavor.
We love TIPA’s and we love Riwaka, so you know we had to do it. We wove Riwaka three times into the process of our Even More Unbalanced grain bill to create something stunning. Waka³ pours bright tangerine with aromas of oranges gummy slices, lemon wedges, and fresh cut grass. Its flavor is explosive with bright notes of orange juice, marmalade, limeade drink, earthy grass, and Smarties candy with a white pepper bite and an earthy grass component that complements the bright juicy elements. This beer is smooth for its size and the #EQjuice finish greats you after an explosion of flavors.

More to come!

Transatlantic Songbird

on October 7, 2020 No comments

Today at 2PM, we will sell Transatlantic Songbird, a collaboration with Cloudwater Brew Co (6.8 % ABV IPA) at $17 per 4-pk, no limit. We will have this available with options for curbside pickup at the brewery or delivery throughout New York, Pennsylvania, Washington D.C., Ohio, Nevada, New Hampshire, Vermont, North Dakota, and Virginia. Please follow individual State guidelines on limitations.
We teamed up with Cloudwater to bring you Transatlantic Songbird. A beer that signifies both Paul’s love of Kenny G tunes and our friendship with the Cloudwater crew, which spans across an entire ocean. At any given festival (remember those?), Paul from Cloudwater could be found playing the smooth sounds of Kenny G., so when we Zoomed with Cloudwater a few weeks back, we had “Songbird” playing for everyone. Transatlantic Songbird takes a simple 2-row grain bill and applies a heavy dose of a Riwaka. This is the first time this elusive hop has been used for 100% of the hopbill in an Equilibrium India Pale Ale.
Transatlantic Songbird pours vivid firefly yellow and has beautiful aroma of citrus, lemon balm, passionfruit, New Zealand white pepper, and fresh cut grass. Its flavors are bright with notes of kumquat, lemongrass, and stone fruit. A white pepper bite wrapped in a creamy finish balances a pop of bitterness to maintain high drinkability. We find this beer to be really fun and a great showcase of what Riwaka has to offer. This beer is full of flavor and is as smooth and easy drinking as your favorite Kenny G playlist.

Gin Barrel Aged Unlikely Foragers

We will have this available with options for curbside pickup at the brewery or delivery throughout New York, Pennsylvania, Washington D.C., Ohio, Nevada, New Hampshire, Vermont, North Dakota, and Virginia.

This was brewed in May 2019, right after our yearly dandelion blossom forage. We let this beer evolve in Barr Hill Tom Cat Gin barrels with select Brettanomyces strains for almost a year. Following its transformation, we further bottle conditioned it for 3 months prior to its release. The resulting liquid pours a golden yellow with a billowy head. It’s delicate and beautifully balanced with layered flavors of Meyer lemon, pie spice, juniper berry and assorted botanicals, a beautiful barrel presence, and a purposeful touch of balanced acidity. This beer will continue to evolve over time if properly cellared.

Using one of our favorite crops of Galaxy yet, we are happy to have this beer back. Fractal Mosaic / Galaxy investigates the interplay between two of our favorite hops in a combination that seems timeless.
Fractal Mosaic / Galaxy pours a resinous-hazy-straw yellow releasing complex aromas of intense citrus, mango, assorted berry, earthy grass, and nice melon notes. The taste is resinous, dank pineapple orange juice with a hint of pine. The finish is big and juicy and has a light rounded bitterness.

We will have this available with options for curbside pickup at the brewery or delivery throughout New York, Pennsylvania, Washington D.C., Ohio, Nevada, New Hampshire, Vermont, North Dakota, and Virginia.

Our latest TIPA using our Energy Process is here. Ampere is named after the French physicist André-Marie Ampère who is now considered the father of electrodynamics. Also known as “amp”, Ampere is the basic unit of electric current equal to one coulomb per second. We applied our Energy Treatment to a massive hop bill of Mosaic and our new magic
Galaxy using the same heavy wheat and oat grainbill as Joule
Ampere pours electric yellow and has an aroma of assorted citrus and mango with flavors of orange, cantaloupe, pineapple, and mango smoothie with a touch of earth and grass like your Dad mowed the lawn and accidently ran over the blueberry bush. The mouthfeel is creamy with a pop from our #EQjuce finish. With a nearly undetectable 10% ABV, this Triple will flow through you at max amps.

Project Geisha

on September 30, 2020 No comments

This Wednesday, 9/30, at 9 AM on Eventbrite, we will sell Project Geisha (13 % ABV ) $28 per 500ML bottle. Limit 1 bottle per person. No Proxies! For shipping, names must match delivery address. No minimum for shipping but flat rate is in place for shipping. Please add Eventbrite Order number when checking out on our website and please claim by 10/10/20.

Project Geisha is another extremely special beer to us made with our friends from Mostra Coffee. We took the last remaining barrel of the base stout that eventually became Swiss Bliss and allowed it to further mature for a total time of more than 18 months to meld and develop with oak, char, and its former Buffalo Trace occupant. We added just one thing: Mostra Bambito Estate Geisha Coffee, an extremely rare coffee from Bambito Estate in Panama. Coveted for its flavor, it can only be grown at high altitudes with certain soil profiles so only a small amount is produced at each harvest. It’s known for its intense floral aroma as well as along with flavors of milk chocolate, marzipan, lychee, Meyer lemon and blackberries.

Project Geisha pours pitch black with a rich tan head. It features bright and clean notes of creamy chopped bakers chocolate, caramel, Cadbury Crème egg filled with bourbon, oak, young blackberry, and plum skin. Deep layered flavors of rich brownie, full bodied cold brew coffee, American oak integrate into a silky and luxurious mouthfeel that are balanced by bright notes of lemon, blackberry jam, and rollercoaster of flavor ends with lovely barrel heat balanced by some port-like sweetness.

Mesocyclone

on September 28, 2020 No comments

Today, we will sell the next beer in our Project Elevate Series, Mesocyclone (10.0 % ABV TIPA) at $22 per 4-pk, no limit. We will have this available with options for curbside pickup at the brewery or delivery throughout New York, Pennsylvania, Washington D.C., Ohio, Nevada, New Hampshire, Vermont, North Dakota, and Virginia. Please follow individual State guidelines on limitations.

Mesocyclone is a storm-scale region of rotation that can lead to a tornado. A Doppler alert was issued not too far from the brewery so naturally we took flight to investigate. What followed was an amazing almost UFO-like whirling structure complete with lightning bolts. If you watch the video to the end, the mesocyclone leads to an incredible change of sky color, sometimes even producing COTTON CANDY SKIES… but more on that soon…
We started with a base of wheat and flaked oats before a giant mesocyclone of El Dorado, Citra, Belma, and Galaxy in the whirlpool followed up with the same hops in the Dry Hop. Mesocyclone pours an opaque bright yellow with an aroma of orange marmalade and tropical fruits. Flavors of just squeezed oranges, passionfruit, and ripe peach lead into a creamy mouthfeel with pops of fresh fruit. The masked ABV is makes this beer tasty and flavorful while remaining totally drinkable for its size.
Please see the second slide for a still image and video of the Meso Cyclone in the comments starting to create Cotton Candy Skies. To download the wallpaper and video, head over to the link below.

Celebrating Blåbær in 2020 is a bit different from previous formats and it left us with some questions. When the idea of doing a Farmhouse Ale with blueberries and dragonfruit came up, naturally, we asked Jeppe, the Captain of Team Blåbær: How Do Blåbærry Dragons Blow Out Candles? To answer this important question, we took EQ’s base farmhouse Austin, and let it rest in Chardonnay Barrels that previously held 2018 Unlikely Foragers. With a brett strain isolated from our favorite spontaneous Blueberry Lambic, we let it rest on blueberries, dragonfruit, and raspberries. This beer was further bottle conditioned for several months. Balanced and refined notes of Belgian Watermelon Jolly Ranchers, passion fruit, pleasant funk, touch of white wine, oak, raspberry, savory umami, soft blueberry skins, and a balanced acidity choreograph under a white head. This beer is unfiltered, unpasteurized, naturally carbonated, and will continue to evolve over time if properly cellared.

Super Fractal Cosmos Set

The next beer in both our Project Elevate and Super Fractal Series is here. Planets assemble around stars, stars group together into galaxies, galaxies assemble into clusters, and clusters to form large-scale superclusters. As Astronomers study the cosmos on ever expanding scales, they have been surprised to find repeating fractal like structure. At part of this scale, The Milky Way is the galaxy that contains our Solar System, with the name describing the galaxy’s appearance from Earth: a hazy band of light seen in the night sky formed from stars. The label image, which was shot locally, graces the can of the latest Super Fractal Set. Super Fractal Cosmos Set starts off with our Super Fractal base and fermentation process before an ALL GALAXY hop bill, a first for the Super Fractal Series.
Pouring hazy tangerine, you’ll notice an aroma and flavor profile of a pineapple-mango smoothie, starfruit, passionfruit, papaya, and juicy stone fruit wrapped in a grassy dank finish. The mouthfeel is fluffy and creamy with a buildup of our #EQjuice right at the end of your sip. The beer is best enjoyed on cool nights outdoors looking up.
