Nice beer, not overly powerful or strong tasting. Amber color with a nice head. Doesn't really remind me of West coast beers. I like it a lot. Good flavor.

Great out of a keg! Be careful in six pack form. If there is dust on the bottle, you may want to pass it by.

Refreshing and satisfyingly bitter.

You would think SF could come up with a better beer.

Very drinkable. Not very complex but still a solid beer.

Nice crisp California common(steam) beer. They didn't have ice out west in late 19th century so they cooled the wort in the cold foggy air at night ant steam came off the barrels. Perfect example of the style. Very drinkable. Mild floral hop notes, caramel and pale malts easily identifiable in taste. Not overwhelming hop bitterness. Great session beer at less than 5 percent abc
