About this beer
This is the 122nd of 122 labels we have from Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. It is one of 23 porter labels approved in October 2026. Its label was approved 1 day after it was submitted.
From the label“Before Sierra Nevada was a reality, our nights were spent perfecting homebrews and dreaming of starting a brewery. Back then, one of our favorites was a porter made with homemade malt roasted in our kitchen. Decades later, we still love the rich, bittersweet and roasted malt flavors of that original brew.”
