As we continue to make business decisions we will be sure to keep our loyal patrons in the loop so please check back regularly for updates.

We toast to your continued good health and happinesses!

You might need a spoon for Equilibrium’s MC2 now pouring at The Blue Monkey Tavern. Succulent juices and chewy hop resins make this an imperial IPA to drool for with its hazy tangerine color, releasing bright tropical notes of mango, pineapple, and apricot. This DIPA (Double IPA) has double the amount of hops, and more malt to counteract and is Equilibrium Brewery's tribute to the amazing relationship that energy and mass are balanced, proportional to the speed of a photon squared. Equilibrium Brewery, Middletown, NY combines research and inspiration to balance drinkability with massive flavor.
