Description
Cellarmaker Brewing Company has been in the works for quite some time. Look for our beers to start making their way around better known beer bars and beer focused restaurants in San Francisco starting in September.
We have a tasting room in the same building as the brewery and will offer tasters, pints, and growlers. Some beers may be bottled further down the line but for now it's all draft. The only way you can take our beer away is in the form of a growler - which by the way, is a great way to drink beer!
Look for a focus of plenty of hoppy beers, belgian-style saisons, dark beers, and sour beers. We are huge fans of wine and bourbon barrel aged beers as well so it's only natural for us to have a barrel program. Think bourbon barrels loaded with big chewy imperial stouts, excessively hopped IPAs, fruited sour beers, and funky saisons. This is what we love. This is what we are all about. We hope you are too!
Please follow along for the ride as we build San Francisco's next great brewery.
Cheers!

Poured from an undated 16 oz can.
Aroma is hop forward and fairly dank with decent secondary fruity notes. Nice pine resin, oily dankness, and a touch of onion. Grapefruit, tropical citrus, berries and some passion fruit. Light cracker malt and alcohol notes.
Pours a super clear, yellow-gold with a medium large, thick, pillowy, white head that recedes steadily to a small film that lingers on the edges.
Flavor is a bit sweet with medium light cracker malt notes. Fairly strong bitterness and light alcohol notes. Fairly strong dank, oily resin and pine notes that linger into the finish. Lighter grapefruit with hints of tropical citrus, passion fruit and berries.
Mouthfeel is medium light bodied and crisp with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth.
Overall, a solid West Coast IPA with lots of dank, resinous hop notes and an assertive bitterness. Light, crisp, clean malt profile and balanced alcohol notes.
