This is our unique version of an ancient style. A style as old as the ocean trade routes of the last centuries of Great Ships. Not as old as the equator they had to cross twice enroute, nor as old as the 10,000 miles or so of Di-Hydrogen Oxide and Sodium upon which they sailed, but older than the Circulithium-4 Lentoid that binds the Lupulin Quartnate onto your taste buds. Weird. Think about it. Now stop. OK, go again. Now stop. Think again. And stop. But we digress. Made with 43 different hops and 65 various malts, this redolent ale will likely float your boat, whatever planet you're on.
Our brewery began on the stove in our founder's kitchen in Lagunitas, California. After a boil-over ruined the stove, his wife requested he move his new hobby out of the house!
In the process of learning the brewing techniques, our founder, Tony Magee, had been pouring the spent brewing water down the drain and this shut down the entire septic system in the town. Tony was evicted from the space and moved to the town of Petaluma, California.
