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!

Gorgeous.

Pint can pours with a clear gold colored body that supports a thin bright white head of foam. The aroma is pulsing with inviting hoppiness that's tangelo and grapefruit as well as weedy spicy dankness. Very nice. The taste delivers near vibrant crisp hoppy notes that are bitter with grapefruit and a bit of pine as well as tangy tangerine flowing into softer notes of mango and melon. Wow. Toward the finish a thin fresh watermelon note bubbles to the surface. This is a banger. I love the hoppy depth, crispness and the very low sweetness. Dang. I'm going to need more of this.

Can. Pretty much black with a near cm of tan head. Nice fruity lightly roasted coffee aroma with gentle roast and chocolate brioche behind. Somewhat creamy texture. Coffee somewhat reluctantly gives way to chocolate and a little smokey bite towards a bitter finish. A bit too driven by the coffee but very good.

From Good Times Oakland, canned July 14th 2025.
Pours a bubbly clear gold with over a finger of foam, retention and lacing are fine.
Smell is strong notes of pine, orange peel, some grass, hint of tropical fruit.
Taste is definitely pale Ale type of hoppiness. Strong pine, some grapefruit, little grass, toasted malt is there. Tropical fruit taste is minimal.
Good low medium body, I would drink this again.
