Recent Release

World Water Day

IPA

Smooth Citrus flavors complimented with notes of fresh melon and stone fruit, plus hints of wild blueberries. The brewers adjusted hop techniques, amounts, and the water chemistry to make a single IPA taste as hop saturated, and have a mouthfeel you would expect from a double IPA. Exceptionally smooth and balanced bitterness, without being astringent.

This beer was made in collaboration with Saratoga PLAN, a local land and water conservancy group. This was released in conjunction with Word Water Day on March 22nd, 2020.. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to Saratoga PLAN for a variety of their ongoing projects.

ABV: 5.9%

Blueberry WIT

Our Belgian Wit with a massive amount of freshly picked Blueberry flavors and aromas. For this years batch, we used all-natural Blueberry Concentrate from our friends at Puree Arete’ in Catskill, NY. We used concentrate so we wouldn’t dilute the beer with all the water found in fresh blueberries or puree, allowing us to optimize the blueberry flavors and aromas. We would have needed over 600 lbs of freshly picked blueberries to equal what we used in concentrate, so long story short – If you like blueberries, you’re in for a treat with our Bluleberry in the Glasses Wit!.

Smile, It’s Picture Day!

Introducing Artisanal’s new rotating single IPA series:

Picture Day IPA!

Every month the brewers will release a new Picture Day IPA with different grains, hops, yeast, or water chemistry.

In our quest for premium Craft Beer, we like to experiment, learn, and make super tasty small batch craft beer.

Picture Day IPA will also have a rotating label with each release.

At the brewery we’ll have a selfie station (in the background of the picture above) where you can take a picture with the current month’s background.

Since many of the brew staff are children of the 80’s and 90’s, the laser background is our first of many changing labels!

Available only at the brewery in 16 oz / 4 packs, 6.3% ABV.

Gold Medal Winner: Whole Lotta Trouble

Artisanal Brew Works’ Whole Lotta Trouble Belgian Quad won the Gold medal at the 2018 TAP New York Craft Beer & Food Festival in the Belgian Ales category. It was already a winner in our eyes, but we always appreciate the love.

Stop by and enjoy our award winning Belgian Ale today!

And while you are here, try our stouts, pale ales, and other fine ales.

Seasonal Distributed – Past Releases

Touch O' Crunch

ABV: 7.4%

“First, we selected premium malts to yield an orange hue. Next we used a Norwegian yeast called Kveik, which lends to a bit of orange aroma. Ground nutmeg and cloves were hand selected from @fourseasons, and rather than use cinnamon sticks as in the past, we decided to use our favorite cereal: Cinnamon Toast Crunch! Brewed a touch O’ lactose to yield a silky smooth mouth feel, and secondary fermented with sweet orange peel and vanilla, this is a spiced seasonal beer to be savored with friends, or by a warm toasty fire with the ones you love.
