Release of Electrostatic Ale 2012. For all of you that have been looking forward to the release of Electrostatic Ale – our high gravity, 10% ABV Farmhouse Ale – the wait is over! It is now available at the brewery for growler fills. Bottles will be available in mid-August. As always, our tasting hours are Friday 1:30-5:30 and Saturday 1-5.

Lightning made an Imperial India Pale Ale! We have named it Double Strike Imperial India Pale Ale. (We are awaiting final approval from the US Tax and Trade Bureau.) We dry-hopped it earlier this week with New Zealand hops for a unique flavor. We are eagerly awaiting this new edition to the Lightning stable and hope to have it bottled, kegged and ready for you to enjoy in the next few weeks.
