Anchor Steam beer is brewed exclusively at our brewhouse in San Francisco, California. Unlike many beer brands that have multiple production facilities, Anchor takes pride in the fact that every drop of our beer is made right here in the heart of the city.
Our brewhouse is equipped with meticulously crafted tools of the trade that have been sourced from Germany. These include the mash tun, lauter tun, grant, and brew kettle, which were all installed in 1979. These traditional brewing vessels have been expertly designed to ensure the highest quality and consistency in every batch of Anchor beer.
The decision to source these tools from Germany was not taken lightly. We wanted to honor the rich brewing traditions and heritage that have made German beers renowned for their exceptional quality. By using these German-made vessels, we are able to pay homage to the centuries-old brewing techniques that have been passed down through generations.
The brewhouse itself is a testament to our commitment to craftsmanship and attention to detail. It is a place where science and art converge, where the alchemy of ingredients transforms into liquid gold. Stepping into our brewhouse is like stepping back in time, surrounded by the sights, sounds, and smells of a traditional brewery.
But what truly sets Anchor apart is not just the physical location or the equipment we use. It is the passion and dedication of our brewers that truly make Anchor beer special. Each batch is carefully crafted by experienced hands, guided by years of expertise and a deep understanding of the brewing process.
Every step of the brewing process is meticulously monitored and controlled to ensure that our beer meets the high standards that Anchor has set for itself. From the selection of the finest ingredients to the fermentation and aging process, our brewers take pride in their work and strive for perfection with every batch.
Being able to brew Anchor Steam beer exclusively at our San Francisco brewhouse allows us to maintain complete control over the quality and consistency of our beer. It allows us to stay true to our roots and continue the tradition that began over a century ago.
