Brooklyn Special Effects tastes just like a regular beer, but therein lies the special effect: it’s not. We use a special fermentation method that develops the flavors, aromas & character of beer with none of the alcohol, and a generous dry hopping resulting in lively hop notes and a clean finish.

When we think of a beer brewed for celebration, we think Oktoberfest. Genesee Oktoberfest is a recipe inspired by centuries of brewing and our proud German heritage. Our Oktoberfest is a deep-golden lager, big on malt flavor and complimented by subtle herbal notes of noble hops. We hope this beer gives you good reason to raise a stein and celebrate. Prost!
Buckler is the non-alcoholic malt beverage made especially for the enjoyment of those individuals who want to experience the taste of a fine beer without alcohol.
This medium-bodied, German-style Schwarzbier, also known as a Dark Lager, has subtle, roasted malt flavors and aromas of dark chocolate, but without the bitterness. Lightly hopped for incredible balance, it ends light, crisp and refreshing.
When Crown Prince Ludwig of Bavaria wanted to celebrate his wedding engagement in 1810, he did what any good Bavarian prince would – he threw a beer festival. Both the festival and the special beer served there became known as Oktoberfest. Brewed from the finest German malt and hops, Brooklyn Oktoberfest is true to the original style, full-bodied and malty, with a bready aroma and light, brisk hop bitterness.
