About Grimm Artisanal Ales
Grimm has been named New York State Brewery of the Year by our state brewer’s association in 2021, 2022, 2024, 2025, and 2026. We set ourselves the goal of being the best brewery in New York, and we got there by caring deeply about the details and holding ourselves to a higher standard of execution than the situation strictly requires. That philosophy runs through everything we do. We are a 100% family-owned business based in Brooklyn, New York. Under the Grimm umbrella, we also operate Physica Wines (low-intervention, whole-cluster natural wines from North Fork grapes) and Lala’s Brooklyn Apizza (creative, New Haven-inspired, fermentation-driven sourdough pizza). Opening Spring 2026, Grimm Tavern is our newest venture: a full-service restaurant in Prospect Heights where warm, relaxed hospitality complements refined tavern food alongside our best-in-class beers and wines.
