Making a mess down in the brewery getting ready for our annual Oktoberfest celebrations… we’ve been brewing exclusively German beers for the past 6 weeks so Scranton could enjoy amazing beer alongside our wonderfully prepared German fare. Today we are beginning our cask conditioning of a traditional Altbier for an event on Wednesday September 24th- Cooper’s Family Brewing German beer night at the Stammtisch where we will sample/learn about all these wonder brews and play all our favorite Oktoberfest games such as the stein hoist! We will also have a “meet the brewer” event on October 5th in the lighthouse where you can discuss/drink house brewed beer before the Oktoberfest band starts. We will be posting about that soon along with an entire Oktoberfest event calendar for sept 22nd -October 12th.

If you love beer, you probably love German beer because most beer in this world has been brewed from traditional German methods!

How did we get half way through August already… summer isn’t over and the fresh beer is still flowing! A big double IPA is the perfect beer to help close out the summer!

Larry the Leviathan
Double NEIPA, 7.7% ABV,48 IBUs

Larry the Leviathan is strong beast although maybe not the best looker. This colossal Double Hazy IPA surfaces from the depths with an imposing malt backbone and a swell of hop intensity. The apple-cider-like appearance hides layers of biscuity malt from PA’s own Double Eagle Malting giving the beer an almost chewy body! Hopped and dry-hopped with Galaxy, El dorado, Eukanot and Krush hops for a punch of citrus and stone fruit flavors. A beer as big and bold as the open ocean—steady yourself before it pulls you under, me hearty.

🥬🍺 We like our greens… fermented.
Introducing Brooks Drift – our fresh, easy-drinking American Wheat Ale brewed with Pennsylvania-grown barley and just enough attitude to skip the salad. 😏

Because let’s be honest—
👉 “Kale” tastes better when the “K” is silent… and cold… and in a pint glass.

Now on tap at Cooper’s Family Brewing!

Need a crispy beer this summer before heading to to Nay Aug Park for the American mine tour? We brew a beer every year to promote Scranton’s amazing mining attraction and also to showcase the developing Pennsylvanian malting industry! This American wheat ale drinks like a refreshing golden ale but contains 50% PA-grown wheat malt to give this very light beer a pleasantly soft profile.

Brooks Drift
American wheat ale, 4.1% ABV, 26 IBUs

This American Wheat ale was brewed exclusively with Pennsylvania grown and malted barley from Double Eagle Malthouse in Huntingdon Valley, PA. A low-ABV, light, and sessionable ale with rustic malt flavors of wheat and barley. A beer brewed in recognition to the amazing work being done by the miners at Nay Aug Park’s Brooks Mine- A Scranton Landmark reborn!

If you enjoy golden ales, cream ales and lagers; we think you’ll enjoy this beer!

Wow has it been hot! Ya know what helps beat the heat? Beer, maybe a little lemonade… how about both? Well fortunately we combined the two and hooked the kegs up to nitrogen for an extra frothy pour. It’s quite refreshing!

Marie’s Lemon Meringue Radler
Lemon radler/ shandy, 5.5% ABV

Named after our beloved Chef Marie (not seen in this picture), whose endlessly imagined deserts inspired this brew. This lemon radler or shandy is first brewed as a crisp German lager. Then lemon and a lemon-lime soda concentrate are added during a secondary fermentation. This refreshing radler bursts with tart citrus character balanced by a hint of sweetness from added lactose sugar. Poured on nitro, it cascades into a thick, creamy head reminiscent of whipped meringue, delivering a silky mouthfeel.
