A celebration of beverages brewed with kveik yeast. Join us to taste beers & chat about brewing with kveik!

We like Kveik, how about you?! Are you as excited as we are about the miracle yeasts of Viking lore? Do you scream at your wort when you pitch these delicious yeast beasts that work at insane fermentation temperatures? We do too, so let’s scream together as friends!

Join Bitter & Esters and Fifth Hammer to celebrate the ways of the KVEIK with others just like you for a special event on Thursday, February 27th at 7pm at Fifth Hammer Brewing Company! Smack dab in the middle of NYC Beer Week, we’ll be hosting a Homebrew "To Do" Kveik meetup. No judgement, everybody wins because sharing is caring. The event is free if you bring a homebrew to share or $15 if you don’t.

For homebrewers/brewers: bring a lot of homebrew, bring a little, it’s up to you, just tell us about it before you do by filling out this form! There will be access to the NYC Homebrew Guild’s tap board if you plan on bringing a keg. All we ask is that your beer be fermented with one of the many Norwegian Kveik strains available. As a special treat, there will be a representative from Omega Yeast joining the party.

If you’re not bringing beer, grab your ticket from Eventbrite.

Regardless if you bring a homebrew or buy a ticket, you’ll get a Fifth Hammer beer fermented with a kveik yeast, samples of beers brewed with kveik yeast and a talk/Q&A with a representative from Omega Yeast, Mary Izett & Chris Cuzme of FIfth Hammer Brewing and John LaPolla of Bitter and Esters.

Fifth Hammer will also have several kveik offerings for sale on draught, including a 2xIPA collaboration with KCBC "Too Much Trombone?”
