We'll never be your yeast of burden. In the age of hazy & juicy hop forward beers, the yeast often goes unrecognized but is largely the reason for the character of these beers. A gorgeous grain bill that includes locally malted Sacramento Valley barley, and a intensely citrus-forward hop aroma augmented by tropical, yeast derived esters.

Yeast of Burden - Alvarado Street
Yeast-driven Pale Ale - 5.2% abv
Canned 12/12/17 (26 days ago)
Purchased for $5.49 in Oakland, CA
L - eggshell white 2-finger head above a vibrant, sparkling yellow body.
S - cheese, a little citrus, bread.
T - strange. Cheesy front backed by some classic orange/grapefruit. Bready middle. Quite sweet. Only mildly bitter.
F - medium-light body with higher than normal carb.
O - I can’t say that I like this, but I don’t hate it either. Glad I did not lug home a full 4 pack. It’s worth trying for how weird it is. Very much a cheese bomb.
