From the brewer

Our steam inspired lager is the bolt that holds it all together. And, much like the kingpin it's named after, steam beer is symbolic of a turning point: the lager yeast performs at ale fermentation temperatures which allowed pre-refrigeration West Coast breweries to alter craft beer history forever. This is a complex beer without being complicated; the yeast creates a light fruitiness that draws out the blend of pale, biscuit, and caramel malts. The modest, woody hop flavour and bitterness handles pairings with spicy foods and sharp cheeses. Whether you're a veteran landshark that owes much of your existence to a skateboard kingpin or not, this beer will leave your taste buds feeling boss.
