The story behind it

The maker

Switchback Brewing Company was founded in 2002 by Bill Cherry in Burlington, Vermont, with a mission to brew unexpected, character-filled beers. In 2017, Switchback made history by becoming the first 100% employee-owned brewery in the state of Vermont.

How it is made

Brewed in Burlington, Vermont, Switchback Ale is left unfiltered and naturally carbonated to preserve its full complexity and exceptionally smooth texture. The brewery utilizes a proprietary yeast strain and traditional methods to craft this flagship, yeast-forward amber masterpiece.
