We thought eight years of good things coming together warranted more than one beer in celebration, so we made two! Packed with a literal ton of whole strawberries and just enough lactose for a rich body, Anniversary Jam is a quaffable riff on your favorite jar of jelly. And of course you can mix in its nutty partner for a combination that’s as classic as they come. Enjoy it on its own or with its pal, and with our unending appreciation for you helping us live our dreams. Cheers to eight great years so far, and to many more to come!

Anniversary Jam
16 oz can poured into a pint glass
A- A murky red with orange highlights and a two finger pink head. 4
S- A sweet strawberry jam with a mild tartness, some hibiscus. 4.25
T- Tart, strawberry, fairly jam like, some hibiscus, slightly earthy. 4
M- Smooth, light to medium body. 4
O- Delivers on being a strawberry jam beer. 4.25
Black and Tan
Mixed according the the cans, about 2/3 Anniversary Jam and 1/3 Peanut Butter Party
A- The porter is sitting nicely on top of the jam, color and slight blending look good held up the the light. 4
S- With the porter on top it is smelling more like the porter, but you do get a nice mix of the peanut butter, chocolate and a nice amount of strawberry jam. 4.25
T- Both beers come together wonderfully, the peanut butter and chocolate play very nice the jam and balance the earthiness in the jam while the jam help balance out the metallic flavors in the porter. 4.25
M- Smooth, medium body. 4
O- This two beers come together nicely to highlight the best in both beers and balance out each other’s minor flaws. Both together are better than either individually. 4.25

16 ounce can, canned on OCT 14 2020. Thanks to my friend Denis for picking this up on a recent trip to Iowa! Served in a nonic pint glass, the beer pours a hazy reddish/orange color with about an inch off-white head. Head retention and lacing are both decent enough. Aroma is fruity, the brew smells mostly like strawberry jam, along with some dark fruit and bready malt. Taste is similar to the aroma, but there's also some orange and cream flavors noticeable too. It's sweet, but not too sweet tasting. Mouthfeel/body is light, it's smooth and easy to drink with a good amount of carbonation. I liked this brew, lots of jammy flavor and it's enjoyable to drink. Would like to try their beers at the brewery one day!
