Zat you, Santa Claus?

With eleven hand-pulls (!) of a beer engine, publican Adrian poured a delicious pint of cask-conditioned Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale.

Brick Store Pub
City of Decatur (Decatur Square), Georgia, USA.
3 December 2024.

▶ One of only a few pubs nationwide given casks of this classic American winter-season ale (brewed by Sierra Nevada Brewing Company in Chico, California).

***************
▶ About CELEBRATION ALE
“Hop harvest happens once a year, sending brewers to the Pacific Northwest to choose the hops they’ll use for months to come. We certainly do that—'hop selection' for all our beers—but Celebration Fresh Hop IPA gets its own 800-mile road trip through Washington and Oregon to hand-pick the ultimate fresh hops for citrus, pine, and floral flavors at their most intense.

Once the hops come down, we race the harvest home [to Chico, California] to brew Celebration IPA within a few weeks. That’s the core of fresh hop beers: brew right away for maximum hop aroma and flavor. For more than four decades, it’s the holiday beer to start the celebration.”

▶ SPECIFICATIONS
