The editorial take
Tripping Animals Brewing Co. Fields a deep beer program spanning IPAs, stouts, sours, and lagers, with a barrel-aging program that gives it real character. Standouts like the A Coqwork Orange Crème Brûlée, a 24-month Willett Rye Bourbon-barrel imperial stout, and the apple brandy-aged BA Macaroon Trip show serious ambition. A hazily hopped IPA and a caramel-forward amber round out a lineup that rewards exploration.
- What should I order?
- Start with Aroha, a DDH Hazy IPA hopped with nectaron, superdelic, and rakau. For depth, the A Coqwork Orange Crème Brûlée imperial stout, aged 24 months in Willett Rye Bourbon barrels, is a must. BA Macaroon Trip, aged 32 months in apple brandy barrels, offers another layer of complexity.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Hop heads will appreciate the DDH Hazy IPA, while sour and lager fans find ample options. Barrel-aged stout collectors should take note of the collaborations with Messorem and North Park Brewing Co. The wide range makes it a solid stop for any craft beer enthusiast.
- When should I go?
- Anytime the brewery is open, though barrel-aged releases like Barrels of Death suggest special events or limited drops are worth tracking.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- The barrel-aging program is the clear standout, featuring imperial stouts aged in Willett Rye Bourbon and apple brandy barrels, often with collaborations. The diversity—from a 5.2% amber ale to a 13.5% imperial stout—shows a kitchen-sink approach that rarely gets boring.

How it sits with the food
The on-site Trippy Kitchen offers Latin American-inspired dishes, which would pair naturally with the caramel and toffee notes of Armored or the roasty, vanilla-laced barrel-aged stouts.
