Evil Genius BeerPHILADELPHIA, Pennsylvania – Evil Genius Beer Company (1727 N. Front Street) is ready to cast its spell just in time for the World Premiere of Harry Potter: The Exhibition at the Franklin Institute. The Fishtown and Philadelphia-based brewing company, tasting room and beer garden celebrates the exhibition and the return of in-person events with a special new exclusive beer, cocktails, running club, drag brunch and block party. Raise a glass and cheers with a brand-new glitter beer “Spoiler Alert: It’s LeviOSa, not LevioSA!” flying in at 6% ABV. Evil Genius will debut two new specialty theme cocktails with Throwing Snowballs at Voldemort (butterbeer slushie with Stateside Vodka) and Defrosting Broomsticks (butterbeer-inspired martini). Charity fundraiser Hogwarts Running Club – Harry Potter 0.5K will take place on Saturday, March 12th where runners will don their house’s colors and race around the block on foot, broom or owl (as they prefer), and tickets include a swag bag and proceeds support Trans Lifeline. On Saturday, March 12th, Evil Genius summons up all the Muggles and Mudbloods for the Evil Genius Block Party: The Lab Turns 5 on Saturday, March 12th, from 12-6pm. Festivities kick-off this Friday, February 18th with the release of the new glitter beer, until it is sold out. Cocktails will run from February 18th to March 20th.

Calling all Muggles and Mudbloods, Evil Genius is paying homage to Harry Potter with a month-long celebration that includes everything from a butterbeer-inspired beer with magical sparkle, to butterbeer-inspired cocktails, to a series of events including a parody drag brunch and a block party that will close Front Street under the El. Details are found below:

Exclusive Beer Release: Spoiler Alert: It’s leviOsa, not levioSA! 6% Vanilla Caramel Blonde AleStarts February 18, 2022 Exclusive in The Lab by draft and growler Evil Genius pays homage to Hogsmeade’s famed “butterbeer” with this Vanilla Caramel Blonde ale. While it doesn’t contain any actual butter (thank goodness), it does boast sweetness from toasted and caramelized malts, along with natural caramel and vanilla flavors. It solemnly swears it’s up to no good. Well, some good- as a portion of the proceeds will go to benefit Trans Lifeline, an organization which provides emotional and financial support for Trans people.
