Common Good is a California Common, also known as steam beer, a style most commonly associated with Anchor Brewing Company in San Francisco, CA. The name “steam beer” came from the fact that the brewery, founded in 1896, had no way to effectively chill boiling wort using traditional means, so they pumped it up to large, shallow, open-top bins on the roof of the brewery to be cooled by the breeze coming off the Pacific Ocean. This led to distinct clouds of steam around the roof of the brewery, and “steam beer” was born. While this style has its origins and influences in Bavaria, Germany, it is known in modern history as one of the few uniquely American beers.
A lager brewed at a warmer temperature, this light, malty brew has a slightly fruity character that is pleasantly balanced with a strong hop backbone. 4.7% ABV
**As always, we are collecting items for Anchored Hope Outreach, a nonprofit outreach that is working to fight human trafficking by serving the needs of sex trafficked victims. You can find them “boots on the ground” in the neighborhoods of southwest Detroit passing out food and hygiene kits, spending time in prayer, and connecting those in need with resources to heal and restore.
Please bring your donations to the Brewery on the day of the event between 11AM – 12PM.
Items we are collecting for Anchored Hope: Travel (or full) size deodorant, shampoo, conditioner, t̶o̶o̶t̶b̶r̶u̶s̶h̶e̶s̶ (fulfilled), toothpaste, face wash, body wash, Kleenex, wipes, hand sanitizer, mouth wash, bar soap, chapstick, q-tips, tampons & pads, washcloths. We are also accepting $5 gift cards to McDonalds, Dunkin’ Donuts, gas station cards, etc.
Raise a glass to women, community, and the common good.
