Our own Doctor Stranghaze New England IPA was rated by Men’s Journal as one of the “Best Brews You Can Drink Right Now”! We are excited and humbled to have been included in this list of amazing brews from across the Country. Check out the article here.
It’s summer and that means our annual Farmer’s Market and CSA+B makes it’s long awaited return!
This year, we're again challenging ourselves to come up with a beer inspired recipe using some of the fresh produce brought to us by Barden Farm each week. Ultimately you can choose to just drink your beer the traditional way (from a pint glass) but we thought you might want to try cooking (or in this case, pickling) with the beer too!
Brewery Legitimus Dr. Strangehaze NE IPA Quick Pickled Summer Squash
Ingredients
1 – 2 small summer squash, sliced thin
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup rice or white vinegar
3/4 cup Dr. Strangehaze NE IPA
1/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons salt
1 small onion or shallot, sliced thin
1 hot pepper, sliced thin (if desired)
2 cloves garlic, sliced thin
3-4 tablespoons fresh dill
2 teaspoons mustard seeds
1 teaspoon whole peppercorns
Preparation
Toss onion and squash in a colander with a tablespoon of salt and let drain for 2 hours or more.
In a small saucepan, bring vinegar, beer, sugar, and salt to a boil until sugar and salt are dissolved. Distribute dill, mustard seeds, peppercorns, hot pepper, and garlic amongst your jars. Layer squash and onions in jars. Carefully pour the pickling liquid over the veggies.
Place a lid on the jar and cool in the fridge. Allow the flavors to combine with the onions for at least 1 hour prior to serving or ideally overnight.
Keeps in the fridge for 2-3 weeks.
Hi beer and veggie lovers! We’re already thinking about this year’s CSABC (for those who are not in the know, CSABC stands for Community Supported Agriculture, Beer and Cheese)!
This year’s program will last 10 weeks, beginning July 11th through September 12th. Shares will include 64oz of Brewery Legitimus beer, 1 specially selected cheese and 1 box of seasonal produce. Some weeks may include other items from the farm such as jams, bread, eggs, flowers. Some weeks will include limited release beers. Share will be picked up at Brewery Legitimus on either Thursdays or Fridays. This year we are offering members the option to fill their 64oz growler with one (1) beer or choose two (2) 32 oz Crowlers (for a $2 surcharge/week). Members are welcome to stay and will receive $1.00 off each pint of beer on their designated pick-up day. Total price for the CSABC share is $485, that’s only 48.50 / week for fresh, local produce, beer and cheese!
