At East Brother Beer Co., we believe in brewing classic styles with unwavering dedication to quality. We don’t chase trends — we honor tradition, refining each recipe to bring out the best in every beer we craft. That philosophy is at the heart of our new Seasonal Release Series, a curated lineup of four beers that seamlessly blend heritage and craftsmanship.
Why the change? Our previous seasonal lineup featured a broad range of lagers and ales, but we wanted to refine our focus—to create four distinctive beers, each given the time, attention, and precision it deserves. The result? A thoughtfully curated mix of lagers and ales, designed to celebrate the seasons while staying true to what we do best: brewing timeless, expertly crafted beers.
Meet the Seasonal Release Series
Each beer in this series pays homage to classic styles, brewed with a deep respect for their origins while using the finest ingredients available.
Belgian-Style Tripel – Bold, Complex, and Golden
ABV: 8.6% | IBU: 30
A tribute to the legendary Belgian Trappist brewing tradition, our Belgian-Style Tripel is a golden ale that balances effervescence, complexity, and smooth drinkability.
A Tripel is deceptively smooth, making it a perfect sipper for those who love deeply flavorful, yet balanced ales.
Festbier – The Spirit of Oktoberfest
ABV: 5.8% | IBU: 24
Traditionally brewed for Bavaria’s famous Oktoberfest celebrations, Festbier is smoother and more drinkable than its Märzen cousin, yet still rich in malt complexity.
This is the beer that pairs perfectly with crisp autumn air, great company, and good times.
Pre-Pro Lager – A Classic Reborn
ABV: 5.5% | IBU: 38
Before Prohibition, American lagers had more character, more body, and a crisp, balanced finish. Our Pre-Pro Lager pays homage to this bygone era, blending six-row barley, flaked maize, and classic Cluster hops for a clean, refreshing brew with a touch of nostalgia.
If you’re looking for a light-bodied beer with depth and history, this one’s for you.
Munich Dunkel – Rich, Toasty, and Smooth
ABV: TBD | IBU: TBD
A traditional Bavarian dark lager, Munich Dunkel is all about deep malt character—showcasing toasted bread, caramel, and a whisper of chocolate. It’s a clean, refreshing dark beer that proves malt-forward styles can still be crisp and easy to drink.
If you think dark beers are heavy, this one will surprise you—it’s rich, yet delightfully drinkable.
