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!

Really good beer. Simcoe and Mosaic are such great hops especially when used together like this. Great balance between sweet, bitter and carbonation. Satisfying yet I could easily drink more.

Can picked up from Beer Republic Webshop, Berkel-Enschot, Netherlands and consumed at Wohnmobilstellplatz, Salzburg, Friday 1st November 2024. Pours mid brown with a nice large creamy edging towards tan head. Coffee comes through on the nose, it's a touch roasty. There's a milky coffee'ness' here, it's medium sweet coffee floods through, like it. This is very good.

On tap at the Crafy Fox in SF, September 2024. Short & thin stemware. Opaque, matte black, cookie head. Rich cocoa & shredded coconut nose, light toast. Dark chocolate, semi-sweet. smooth & strong toasted coconut, almost like rum. Lingering astringent bitter bark, sooty bite. Lovely. Better choice vs the 50/50 on tap.

Very good. Aroma's are an excellent blend of dark malt, roast, and a hint of smoke. Flavors are similar to nose, everything gets amplified a bit, add in a touch of molasses. Excellent balance between bitter, sweet and carbonation. Slightly soft mouth, a touch chalky with good body. Satisfying.
