Style: American Steam Beer (California Common)

5.1% ABV

Steam Beer is a classic style born in Germany but refined for the American palate in the 1980s by Anchor Brewing Company who coined it a California common beer.  Steam Beer is fermented with lager yeast but fermented at a higher temperature than standard lagers.  With a fairly simple malt and hop bill consisting of 2-Row Pale Malt, a touch of Crystal Malt, and Northern Brewer hops our Steam Beer is amber in color, crisp, and refreshing.
