Available Now….Vanilla Cherry Dogpatch

FLANDERS-STYLE SOUR RED ALE AGED IN OAK WITH CHERRIES AND VANILLA | 6.1% ABV
Vanilla Cherry Dogpatch pays homage to Almanac’s first home: the Dogpatch neighborhood of San Francisco. We started with our base red sour ale and added a ridiculous amount of fresh cherries to each barrel for a juicy, intense cherry flavor. Then we added in whole vanilla beans, building on oak’s natural vanilla flavor.  The final blend creates a delicate balance of fruit and oak that keeps you coming back for more.

Sunshine & Opportunity

DRY-HOPPED SOUR ALE AGED IN OAK BARRELS WITH PEAR JUICE | 5.8% ABV
This mixed-culture farmhouse ale was aged in oak barrels with pear juice. A delicate dry-hop of Sabro, Citra, and Mosaic imparts a transcendent tropical aroma in every sip. Shine on!
