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!

Keg at the 4th Copenhagen Beer Celebration, Session 3, 02/05/2015. Pale golden with a moderately appointed off white covering. Nose is light florals, bready tones, straw, pale malt, light citric peel. Taste comprises melon, straw, citric pith, tangerine, light bread. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Decent stuff, delivers well on the ABV, coming a cross a little more like a golden blonde than a bitter for me.
