Anchor Humming Ale

Product - Anchor Humming Ale
Brewed By: 
Anchor
Self-Defined Style: 
American Pale Ale
Strength (ABV): 
6.0% ABV
Bitterness (IBU): 
65 IBU

Anchor's Humming Ale was brewed in San Francisco on August 13, 2009, 113 years after our founding and thirty years to the day since the first brew in our new brewhouse.

Humming is an ancient term, used centuries ago to describe both ales and beers. Although its origins are shrouded in mystery, it seemed the perfect fit for a new product from an established company celebrating the 30th anniversary of the first brew in our "new" brewery. From the very day of that first brew we were humming!

Anchor Liberty Ale

Product - Anchor Liberty Ale
Brewed By: 
Anchor
Self-Defined Style: 
American Pale Ale
Strength (ABV): 
6.0% ABV

A special top-fermenting ale yeast is used during fermentation and is responsible for many of Liberty Ale's subtle flavors and characteristics. Carbonation is produced by an entirely natural process called "bunging," which produces champagne-like bubbles. Dry-hopping (adding fresh hops to the brew during aging), imparts a unique aroma to the ale. It is a process rarely used in this country today.

San Francisco's famous Anchor Steam®, the classic of American brewing tradition since 1896, is virtually handmade, with an exceptional respect for the ancient art of brewing. The deep amber color, thick creamy head, and rich flavor all testify to our traditional brewing methods. Anchor Steam is unique, for our brewing process has evolved over many decades and is like no other in the world.

Duvel Golden Ale

Product - Duvel Duvel
Brewed By: 
Duvel
Self-Defined Style: 
Belgain Strong Golden Ale
Strength (ABV): 
8.5% ABV
Color (SRM): 
4º L

Duvel is unique. No other beer is made like it, or tastes like it. Blonde and refreshing like a Pilsner, but with the flavor, depth and complexity of an ale, Duvel defines the Strong Golden Ale category. The beer's golden hues originate with its Pilsner malts, while Bohemian hops and a unique yeast strain add character, intensity, and a certain verve. It's this beguiling nature that has made Duvel a Belgian favorite.

Best With: 
Pairs well with seafood, particularly steamed mussels, and works well as a stand alone beer. Excellent as an aperitif.

The high hopping of Harpoon IPA is not only noticeable in the nose but especially in the finish. The lingering bitter finish of this beer is not harsh or astringent, but crisp and pronounced. This is created, in part, by dry hopping - a technique that involves adding fresh hops to the conditioning beer to provide a fresh hop aroma.
