Booth: Lamplighter Brewing Co.

Is Idaho 7 hard to get?

What hop would you like to try but have not?

What was your worst concoction or formula that sounded good but didnt work?

 

Hey there! Just wanted to say thanks for participating in this online festival!! Cheers!

 

The designs for your beer labels are always so consistent yet unique. They are both clean and colorful with intricate artwork and a minimalist aesthetic. Could you tell us more about your design process and what goes into deciding the name and art for your beers?

 

Enjoyed this beer ...again!! Thanks for adding it to the fest

 

Is it true that all the founders went to brewing school together? I'm lucky to be near you guys and every beer I've had has been on point. Consistently great beer.

 

I love the name. How hard is it to think of beer names that have not been used before?

Cheers!

 

Not a question just showing the love..I hit lamp i think when you guys were just about a year open and the tap room was the best. Then ended up getting engaged to a woman who lived a street over in Central Sq and you guys became second home. Rabbit Rabbit is a go to now.

 

Great beer! Have you ever tried sitting backwards on the toilet and using the back of the toilet as a little table for your beer?

 

First, love your beer and great taproom. There was a bit of shade thrown at hazy, New England style IPAs in the first session, so, can you tell our lovely hosts why NE IPAs are so delicious!

 

Their Major Tom Galaxy IPA label - the one with the dark blue background, a bunch of stars, and a tiny cat silhouette, is my favorite from them.

 

Great tasting beer, hits some great tropical notes and nice orange ending. For being a double this is super crushable. I noticed that the beer poured out clearer then most NE is this your normal style or did you clear this one up a bit more?

 

Hi Tyler, can you talk a little about your foudres and what beers have or will come out of them?

 

What is the story behind the name of your brewery?

 

I love how long the aftertaste lasts on the tongue once taking a sip. Not many can do that.

 

What's your desert island IPA that's not your own, and why?

 

Native from Jamaica Plain here, but love what’s going on in the brewery scene in Cambridge right now. Rabbit rabbit is one of my favorite runs going.

What other brewery’s have you scene pop up in your neighborhood, and if you had to choose between native and western which would you choose?

 

That is a clean-drinking hazy, what a pleasant surprise!

 

This is great. How do you keep the salt in the Cambridge water from ruining the beer?

 

hey Tyler we had Bri on our Beyond IPAs podcast, we love your brews. We dig Cuppa,can you talk a little bit about that brew?

 

oh shit guys you just asked our same question

 

Is there a certain style you haven't brewed yet that you still want to try?

 

How many taps in your taproom????

 

TASTES LIKE FRIUTY PEDDLES!

 

Much clearer than the previous hazies ... what's the difference?

And is "Rabbit. Rabbit" for Updike-country?

 

What’s the history behind the lamplighter name?

 

I was really hoping Lamplighter was an ice hockey reference. Lighting the lamp is an expression for scoring a goal...

 

Where does the name Rabbit Rabbit come from? (we have bets on your answer)

 

Lunch!

 

King Sue out of Toppling Goliath brewery (Decorah, IA)

 

dessert island beer is a pastry stout

 

With your time in Vermont what is your favorite VT IPA?

 

Idaho 7 is pretty widely available! Check out Crosby Hops to get a sample.
Hop I'd like to try: Talus
Woof. Worst concoction? It's a good story, come on down to the taproom when we open and I'll tell you about it.

 

Very. but it all depends on how it's been used and where the name comes from. Copyright law is a nightmare.

 

you're living in 2035, tell us more!

 

We have a beer for sale right now called Little Light -- that was aged in one of our foeders (sorry for my spelling, it's just how I'm used to doing it) with a more 'american sour' mixed-culture blend. It was further aged on black raspberries and marionberries to balance out the acidity and add some fruity complexity.

Keep an eye out for another batch of Rhapsody coming out soon, it's a mixed-culture sour we've made a few different versions of, and that foeder is really hitting it's stride right now. This batch coming soon was aged on apricots.

 

Check out Brato Brewhouse in Brighton -- they've got some killer beer and food.
