Grimm Artisanal Ales
Grimm Artisanal Ales was founded in Brooklyn in 2013 by Joe and Lauren Grimm, who had spent close to ten years homebrewing before going commercial. For its first five years the brewery had no brewhouse of its own: recipes were developed in the couple's Gowanus apartment and brewed at partner breweries. In June 2018 Grimm opened its own production brewery and taproom in East Williamsburg, with a share of the space given over to oak barrels for sour beer. The range spans hazy and West Coast IPAs, decoction-mashed lagers, a Bavarian-style weissbier, mixed-fermentation sours and imperial stouts.

How we measure this
Two thresholds are at work here:
- The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
- The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.
A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
Double Negative
Their beers place in the Top 42% of the catalogue on average, across 20 ranked beers. One clear standout well ahead of the rest.
