Twin Elephant Brewing to open

Probably for the best - Oregon Trail could be infuriating.

 

Anyone know how long the line is to get in at the moment? Heard they are at capacity.

 

just left 15 mins ago (5:00ish) I'd say 15-20 people outside... can't say how long that equates to, but at 1:00 there were more and I only waited 15-20 to get in.


great time, food was phenomenal, beers were good - wish something special had dropped, but honestly can't complain - was a real nice give back to the customers.

 

No line now.

 

Gonna head over around 7ish before dinner. If anyone is around, and can give a heads up, I'd appreciate it.

 

This week's drops...


First and foremost we want to thank everyone for such an amazing 2 year celebration! It's been a wild ride the past two years and we couldn't have done any of this without the support of our local community, beer community and our friends & family. From all of us at TEB, we want to say THANK YOU!! And a huge thank you to our friends at The Stirling Hotel and Stirling Tavern that sold food outside! They were able to raise and donate a lot of money to the Community Food Bank of New Jersey thanks to all of you!

So with this ongoing warming of the weather and some seasonal rain, some beautiful blooms are starting to come out and to match that we're coming out with some fruity and floral brews this weekend! On Friday we will be tapping a new batch of a fan favorite American Session Ale "Chuck's Garage", thirst quenching and easy drinking at 4.7%.

On Saturday, we'll be tapping fresh batches. First off we have a new DDH American Pale highlighting the Idaho 7 hop called "Hobbies Include". This hazy pale ale has a citrus forward with some tropical fruit notes and slight lingering pine on top of a biscuity medium body at 5.8% ABV. We'll be also be tapping our "Lil' Shimmy Ye" variant with mango, pineapple and Madagascar vanilla beans. We take our favorite 5.8% ABV APA and rack it on top of 100 lbs. of mango and pineapple and lots o' vanilla beans in secondary to create a smooth sweetness of a ripe mango shake with slight fruity pineapple tartness.
Finally on Saturday we will also be making festival appearances at Beer, BBQ, Bacon in Morristown and Fivo Boro Craft Beer Fest in Brooklyn, NYC.

Oh that's that good **** right there.

 

Great news about Sundays! Also fresh drops!

 

I want that beer in mah belly.

 

Damn, you fast.

 

how did they blow through all the Hobbies Include already? that was tasty last Saturday...

also glad to see the return of Sundays.

next up, cans...

 

Great news about Sunday’s. That Wheat Ale looks legit.

 

what i would give to be able to purchase a case of LSY to enjoy this summer.

Hot take: given the choice, I'd take LSY over sneakbox for a constant rotation pale ale.

 

Super pumped about them opening on Sundays, my work hours have stopped me from being able to go to the brewery but finally now I have a chance. Def will get a growler and some proper glassware if they have it.

 

Seconded

 

haven't been there in a minute, but - unless they sold them all out and haven't restocked - they had pint and tekus for sale. I'm going to assume their anniversary Oregon trail glass is gone though.

 

Yea, Oregon Trail glass is no mas

 

If only they’d listen to you...

 

Alien Drawl drinking better, IMO, this week than when I tried it the first week it was on. The hop burn is gone. Still pretty sweet.
