✨️10h Anniversary Lager Especial✨️

What makes this pub exclusive release so special? It's brewed using a historic lager yeast strain from the original Cruz Blanca Cervecería in Mexico that inspired our brewpub here in Chicago.

The yeast was preserved in the Siebel Institute of Technology archive for over 60 years and was carefully revived and propagated from a few single cells by Lallemand Brewing in Montreal. The samples were then shipped to Escarpment Laboratories and grown over the course of a month to an amount large enough for us to brew with. Genetic testing confirmed it is a clean-fermenting strain closely related to the same German lager yeasts to which some of the first lagers in Mexico where brewed with.

The can artwork draws inspiration from vintage Cruz Blanca designs, connecting historical roots with our present-day identity. This project serves as both a celebration of our brewpub's core lager and a meaningful tribute to our brand heritage.

10th Anniversary Lager Especial is now on draft and served in our beautiful Año 10 glassware + 4 packs available to-go!

Cheers to 10 Años!
