La receta de Humming Ale y su sabor final, deben mucho a los métodos tradicionales que se utilizan para hacer la Liberty Ale. Ambas son elaboradas con malta pálida, un proceso de carbonatación natural llamado "bunging", y dry hopping, pero el perfil de sabor único lo da un lúpulo de Nueva Zelanda llamado Nelson Sauvin.
Humming es un término antiguo, que se encuentra en todas partes desde Robin Hood a Herman Melville, y que se utiliza para describir una cerveza fuerte, efervescente, con mucho carácter, o simplemente en alabanza de una cerveza realmente buena. Originalmente creada para celebrarel 30 aniversario de nuestra ubicación en Mariposa Street, está disponible de julio a noviembre y se ha convertido rápidamente en un clásico que hace honor a su nombre. Humming Anchor Ale, una cerveza con carácter merece un nombre de carácter.
Anchor Christmas Ale - Merry Christmas & Happy New Year - Our Special Ale
Our annual Christmas Ale is a subtly spiced and sumptuously smooth winter warmer. This year’s brew marks the 44th annual release of this Anchor holiday tradition.
Back in 1975, Anchor released the first holiday beer in America since Prohibition. Year after year, Anchor creates a new, secret recipe with a unique hand drawn label for their Christmas Ale, but the intent with each brew remains the same: joy for the changing seasons and celebration of the newness of life. With a heavily guarded, confidential recipe, Christmas Ale is sold only from early November to mid-January. This highly anticipated seasonal delight is complex and full in flavor, packed with toasty cocoa notes, roasted malts and strong aromas of resinous pine.

Anchor Liberty IPA
Liberty IPA is Anchor’s reimagining of the craft beer classic Liberty Ale®, envisioned through the lens of today’s IPAs. We first brewed Liberty Ale in 1975 to celebrate the 200th anniversary of Paul Revere’s midnight ride. This revolutionary forerunner of the modern IPA introduced America to the Cascade hop and the nearly lost art of dry-hopping, a steeping process to infuse beer with bold hop aromas.
Like its predecessor, Liberty IPA is made with two-row pale malt and Cascade hops. It is the combination of Cascade with new hop varieties—Nelson Sauvin and El Dorado—that creates the mouthwateringly complex and robust aromas of pine and citrus in this crisp, American-style IPA.
Liberty IPA is a bright straw golden color and boasts aromas of dank and resinous pine up front, with bold citrus and grapefruit notes on the back end. The assertive bitterness is complimented with hints of a light biscuit malt base and a smooth, dry finish. Liberty IPA is a celebration of the Cascade hopped IPA’s that Anchor first popularized back in 1975 and remain at the forefront of American craft beer trends.
Taking cues from the original Liberty Ale packaging, the newly designed Liberty IPA label features the bald eagle, a symbol of strength and freedom.
