Established in 1986
Today, Summit Brewing continues to infuse traditional recipes with modern ingredients from around the world, crafting high-quality and consistent craft beer out of respect for the hardworking folks who enjoy our beer.
And because we’re independently owned and operated, we get to make craft beer our way. That means relying on natural carbonation, protecting the foam, and celebrating the true dance between malts, hops, water, and yeast. It means protecting the environment, supporting the community and the arts, being kind to animals, and always having one more beer with our friends and family even if we’re already late for rotary club. It means drinking our beer fresh and cold, because warm storage turns good beer to shit. And it means never settling for “good enough,” always pulling the goalie when we’ve got a chance to win, swinging for the fences, and never, ever forgetting where we come from. Grain country represent.

12 ounce can from Happy Harry's 45th St Fargo, 8/20/20. Hazy gold, large foamy white head, good retention. Aroma of leafy, floral hops and grainy malt. Taste is dank, resin, green hops, pale malt. Moderate bitterness, very dry, a bit thin.

12oz can. Pretty reasonable Wit. Filtered tan body. Foamy white head. Medium bodied. Easy and refreshing, spices are to style and not dominating/overboard. Personally, I enjoy a wheatier, unfiltered Wit, but this is fine for the style.
2015, consumed 2020. Still sweet. Still moderate hop flavor and some carbonation yet. Bitter, dry finish.

Very mild Aromas of hops, grains and pale malt. Definitely not a juicy beer. There's a little bit of hop flavor and bitterness, some malt sweetness with decent carbonation & Body but a very boring beer. And a very lame IPA.

12oz can. A pretty enjoyable fruit beer. The Galaxy helps give it a modern feel, the apricot and peach aren't that impressive. Much more enjoyable than the fruited IPAs of a few years back, this is more along the lines of a fruit beer, just with a nice hop balance. Not my favorite, but exceeded my expectations.

Pours a slightly hazy, copper-gold, with minimal head. Aromas include citrus, bread, some grassiness. Flavor is very bitter upfront, with some citrus and breadiness. This is not a good example of the NE-style IPA...

Hazy copper color. Sweet for a Summit beer. Juicy citrus hops. Good session ipa.
