September Release
To celebrate the wonderful town that took us in and made us part of their community, we are brewing a special beer for the once-a-year celebration, Aberdeen Day. Just like local folklore inspired our Amity Premium Lager, a local musician and his band inspired this heavier (but still crushable) version of Amity. Jon Caspi and the First Gun, who have been long-standing in the NJ punk scene, partnered with us to re-release their cult classic song “Raise ‘Em High” to be the Official Beer of Aberdeen Day. We also have a new Pale Ale for y’all called Man-O-Lantern that we brewed special for @yetisteel for Space Squatch 2022. And finally, we hosted an unbelievable fundraiser for cancer research over the weekend called Melesa’s Wings. Along with @yankeerunner we brewed a very special barrel-aged saison with peaches and honey for an exclusive event release, and we’ll be donating $5 for every bottle sold to cancer research.

Man-O Lantern
Pale Ale 5%
Strata/Comet/Galaxy
Citrus/Sap/Homely
We were thrilled when we were asked to brew a Pale Ale for Space Squatch 2022. When @yetisteel invited us to this amazing event and suggested a Pale Ale with outer space hops, we knew exactly what we wanted to brew. We took our Why Not?! recipe, made subtle adjustments, and crushed it with Strata, Galaxy and peppered in some Comet. The result is strong notes of citrus and sap. Although the concept of this label differed from the original mashup, we knew Harry and the Hendersons had to be in it somehow. We started to brainstorm who is hairy like Harry, and boom, one of the funniest scenes in movie history came to mind! We hope you love it as much as we do!

Elena
In Memory of Maria Elena Escobar Saavedra
Saison Aged with Peach and Honey 6.7%
Light Funk/Stone Fruit/Vinous
Elena is a Saison made with NJ grown malt aged for 8 months in Chardonnay barrels. It was then aged for another 1 month on fresh organic peaches and bottle conditioned with local Homelands Farm honey. This delicate thoughtful beer was developed by Jose Manchola and brewed collaboratively with Alternate Ending for the Melesa’s Wings IV charity event. And darlin’, darlin, stand by me, oh, stand by me, whoa stand now, stand by me, stand by me...
