To quote the great Carl Sagan, “We are a way for the Cosmos to know itself.” Personally, I find that winter stargazing is a great way to aid the Cosmos in this self-discovery. To this end, I brewed Cosmos, the beer, in the style of a robust Foreign Export Stout to have as a companion on those cold, clear nights of celestial exploration. With its big, warm body, rich chocolate and caramel flavors, and delicate oatmeal smoothness, Cosmos stands up to the coldest of New England nights. So whether you’re exploring your inner and outer universe high in the White Mountains or marveling at the night sky through your backyard telescope, Cosmos Stout will help keep your body (to say nothing of your mind) rooted here on Earth.

Enlightenment Brut is an American bière de champagne brewed in the style of a Belgian strong golden ale and conditioned using the traditional méthode champenoise.

While watching the colors of an autumn sunset bleed into the ripples of a quiet pond, have you ever experienced the feeling of complete oneness between yourself and the universe around you? This is a beer brewed for such moments. After a warm fermentation and double dry hopping, two batches of Transcendence were pitched with wild yeast and allowed to sleep throughout the summer. Before bottling, a third batch of fresh, young beer was blended in. What has emerged is a dry, funky and intensely fruity farmhouse ale that transcends the sum of it’s ingredients. So if you go exploring, I hope you will find Transcendence a comforting companion during you own moments of inner reflection.
Day Trip: Extra Hoppy Golden Ale, is brewed in celebration of those brief but wondrous escapes. Inspired by a favorite Brussels beer, I brewed Day Trip to have an inviting fruity nose, spicy hop flavor, and a dry bitter finish: the perfect liquid companion for a day of bold wandering. So if you feel that itch to escape the rat race, if only for a day, throw some of this hoppy golden delight in a cooler and lace up your boots.
