WARMINSTER, PENNSYLVANIA

Inside a tan stucco Industrial mall, TRANQUILITY BREWING COMPANY opened four miles north of Philly in the town of Warminster. Besides its delectably conservative beer fare, Tranquility serves Interstellar Signature cocktails, pizza, sandwiches and light pub fare.

A virtual local sportsbar with ten-seat bar housing twelve tap handles connected directly to the silver brew tanks, the epoxy-floored pub offers black-wooded tables and chairs plus an exterior side deck. The nifty back wall space features a large moonwalk mural and the black art deco ceiling provides a dusky pre-Prohibition setting for my late afternoon January ’25 visit.

Smooth lime-wedged Mexican lager, Below The Equator, revealed musky lemon pit bittering and mild agave snips for its grainy pilsner malt spine.

Mild beechwood smoked amber graining nestled the soft hop spicing of Winter Lager, a pale amber moderation with wispy cured meating.

Nestling vegetal gourd roasting across brown-sugared ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg and clove spicing, Jupiter Jack’s Pumpkin Ale gained a slight perfuming for festive autumnal medium body.

Easygoing NEIPA, Hazy Space Monkey, pledged dank pine tones to brisk orange-peeled yellow grapefruit bittering, subtle peachy pineapple tanginess and dainty floral spicing.

Piney yellow grapefruit bittering consumed Fly Me To The Moon, a moderate-bodied IPA with spritzy lemon zesting and mild orange peel sweetness as well as spicy floral perfuming.

Incisive chocolate stout, The Dark Side, laced its creamy chocolate frontage with dark coffee tones contrasted by maple-sugared dried fruiting, sweet sherry wining, rich chocolate caking and creme brulee caramelization. Superfine nightcap.
