The story behind it
Anchor Brewing Company was established in 1896 in San Francisco, surviving earthquakes and Prohibition to become America's first modern craft brewery. Under Fritz Maytag's leadership starting in 1965, Anchor revived historic styles and pioneered the American craft beer revolution.
Brewed continuously since 1975, this iconic winter warmer is crafted in the heart of San Francisco using traditional open fermentation. The recipe changes slightly every year, but always centers on rich, dark roasted malts and proprietary winter spices.
