3 special bottle releases included rum barrel-aged painkiller and a brand new barrel-aged stout
a celebratory piñata
a tiki-seltzer bar with adult “capri sun” packs
Be ready August 2nd through the 4th.
SoCal can get its first half taste of the popular Brujos Brewing from Portland with the cleverly named Exercising Demons a DDH Hazy DIP made with Everywhere Beer Co. Loaded up with Citra, Cryo Citra, Galaxy and Rakau hops.
Another IPA collaboration to highlight today as Creature Comforts and Everywhere Beer have put together a Georgia-LA-Anaheim IPA.
I am always excited to see Portland beer in Los Angeles, maybe it’s the Beat L.A. mentality from growing up there. Everywhere Beer has teamed with the upcoming PDX brewery, Commensal Fermentation to create Broken Bread another West Coast IPA to try.
There are quite a few Pizza beers out there, some of the crazier ones with ingredients you might see in a pizza. But to my knowledge, no Hot Dog beers until now with The Spectacular, “A premium American pilsner made in collaboration with Hoffy (the hot dog brand) using premium pilsner malt and lightly hopped with HBC 586. This new Everywhere Beer Co beer is at a super low 4.4% abv so that your choice of condiments will shine.
Everywhere Beer Co. down in Anaheim will be doing that 1st Anniversary thing. Here is where I say that it might be a good time to visit their tap room if you haven’t before.
Highland Park Brewery has a new westie IPA, Fellow Humans a collaboration with Orange County’s Everywhere Beer Co.
“Fellow Humans is a 6.2%ABV west coast IPA with lots of fun hops! This clear beer uses NZ Cascade, Eclipse, & it’s also our first time using the hop Nectaron! We’re so excited to experiment with this rad new hop, especially on this beer! bursts of intense aromas like Orange Tic-Tacs, mojito, Big League Chew Bubblegum, & clementines.”
Love HPB beers but toning down the from left field, weird flavor descriptors might be needed though.
I tooled down the 5 on a recent Sunday to check out the new Everywhere Beer Co. To get there, I passed by Angel Stadium as well as the Orange County location of Golden Road and a Karl Strauss.
Everywhere is the project of a breakaway group from The Bruery much in the way that Radiant Beer Co. is. And both are happy and colorful places for a beer. Lot’s of colorful painted figures on the wall. A happy little wobbly circle mascot. Actual booths to nestle into inside, outdoor seating as well. Spanish tile creating a warming counterpoint. Views of the brewhouse from most angles.
First beer was Delicious Moments an Italian Pilsner. My half pour came in a cool cylindrical glass that emphasized the dark yellow color. Sharp malty and mineral taste. Not bubbly but not viscous either.
Next up was Gladness, a West Coast IPA is nice a bright. A burst of hoppiness here that is different from the crowded IPA field. I get melon and grape notes. As it warmed the fruit pulled back a bit and the West Coast-iness came out.
The finishing beer was Magnificent Everything a DDH DIPA. Super pillowy soft and fruity. Getting a strawberry note here. Tastes way less big than the Gladness. Getting a wheat note here as well.
The selection on offer was five beers, two sours and two seltzers. A little more style variety will probably come as the production grows. They also have beer to-go as well to round out your choices.
Everywhere Beer Co. recently opened in the City of Orange with a host of Bruery alums helming the endeavor. Further updates and probable comparisons to Radiant Beer Co. to come after I visit.
