Equilibrium Brewery

Equilibrium Brewery from New York, USA.

Equilibrium Brewery is an independent craft brewery with a taproom, beer garden, barbecue program and retail space at 4 South Street in Middletown, NY.

Once upon a time in an environmental engineering lab.... Equilibrium began at MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) with a desire to make clean water for people in need in places like Haiti, Bangladesh, Vietnam, USA and many others. At MIT, Equilibrium learned to manage the concentrations of substances in water (to put it simply). In these early applications, Equilibrium used this knowledge of water science to remove bad substances from water. At the same time, Equilibrium fell in love with craft beer, the craft beer community, the craft beer experience and the bonds and memories that craft beer creates. Equilibrium realised that Craft Beer is really about experience and community. Paraphrasing an old saying, they believe that the right craft beer transforms ordinary moments into extraordinary experiences. It's true... Beer has the power to bring people together.

They realised over time that beer is also a concentration of substances in water. Considering their education at MIT, they are really good at this. So the people at Equilibrium decided to use science to make some of the best beers in the world.

Their new passion has led them to run their watery knowledge backwards and put delicious things in water: Beer! Their first batches were made at co-founder Pete Oates' house.

In 2009, Equilibrium decided to open a brewery. They studied the science extensively and still do, because beer is incredibly complex. Back then they brewed 6 batches a day to get the right distribution of ingredients in the glass.
