THIS RECIPE KIT INCLUDES EVERY INGREDIENT YOU NEED TO BREW THIS STYLE, FEATURING THE PREMIUM IMPERIAL CABLE CAR YEAST PLUS A FREE METAL BEER SIGN!
During the gold rush in California, California common, or “steam beer,” was the beer of choice for the working class. Because it was preferred by so many, there were quite a few breweries producing this style. In Fact, there was 25 breweries in San Francisco alone producing this style. This beer was brewed for over 100 years. Over time steam beer fell out of favor and almost completely disappeared. By 1965, the Anchor Brewery of San Francisco was the only brewery still brewing thisstyle. If it was not for the efforts of Fritz Maytag buying the brewery in 1965, this style very well could have disappeared completely.
