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!

On tap at Cellarmaker. It pours a clear golden color with a white head. The aroma is grassy and dank with pine and background notes of passionfruit. The flavor is earthy with garden mulch, hop dank, a little garlic, grass, coconut, pine and melon. So good. This reminded me of the classic Jeff Goldblum and Cindy Lauper movie Vibes.

The color is a pale golden yellow. It’s a bit hazy. Medium white head, a touch fizzy. The bubbles dissipate fairly quickly and leave little lacing behind. The aroma is full of monster hop juiciness. It’s like huffing a bag full of Citra. There’s a definite hop greenness to it, but the beer pulls it off quite well. I think the other backing hops rein in the harsher, more vegetal flavors that crop up in a lot of wet hopped beers. There’s a lot of sweet fruitiness in there. Big on peach, pineapple, mango, papaya, grape, tangerine, melon, a lighter lime edge, a little blackberry. It’s all sweet and juicy. Candied fruit hops. No real malt presence is noticeable. This is a hop party. Taste is dripping with that same hoppy fruit goodness. Moderate bitterness. Finishes pretty dry. Light mouthfeel with a lot of hop oiliness. This beer is absolutely packed with bright, juicy hop flavors. Delicious stuff.
