any Anchor Steam Welcome to another edition of the Beer of the Week!As always Nick Allegretti Kansas City Chiefs Jerseys , the Beer of the Week is originally presented on the Arrowhead Pride Tailgate on 610 Sports Radio as part of my Defense and Beer of the Week segment.This week, with the Kansas City Chiefs playing the San Francisco 49ers, I picked an old San Francisco classic for this week. This week’s Beer of the Week is none other than Anchor Brewing Company Anchor Steam!A 4.9% California Common Ale, Anchor Steam is an amber colored beer with toasted bready malts, a slight hop bitterness, and earthy flavors that have been brewed since Anchor Brewing Company opened in 1896. A lightly carbonated beer, it’s made with lager yeast but fermented at ale temperatures, giving the beer a distinct characteristics from the esters produced by the strained yeast.The name “steam” likely originated from the practice of placing warm Kansas City Chiefs Jerseys Stitched , fermenting beers in the late 1800s on San Francisco rooftops, where fog would collect on the warm pans of open wort. Anchor Steam is still fermented in open air vessels, keeping some of the trends that made the beer famous for over a century.Anchor Brewing Company is America’s first and oldest craft brewery, dating all the way back to the California Gold Rush. A German brewer arrived in California in 1849, started a saloon and brewery, and started brewing beer in the Port of San Francisco. 25 years later, Anchor’s two founders bought the saloon, started a brewery Nick Allegretti Jersey nfl draft , and were able to make it through prohibition, massive earthquakes, fires, and multiple other circumstances that would’ve shut down any business in those days. They persevered and find themselves with the success that they have today, making a year-round collection of seven delicious staple beers.So if you can, make sure to swing by your local liquor store and scoop up some Anchor Brewing Company Anchor Steam this weekend!Check back here this time next week for the new Beer of the Week! Defensive changes have been the theme of the Chiefs offseason thus far.They hired a new defensive coordinator in Steve Spagnuolo and signed safety Tyrann Mathieu to make an early splash in free agency. They also said farewell to three players who had played prominent roles for them in the past.Safety Eric Berry and linebacker Justin Houston were released while linebacker Dee Ford was traded to the 49ers shortly after Kansas City used the franchise tag on him. Head coach Andy Reid told Steve Wyche of NFL Media that he is “forever grateful” to the three players for what they brought to the organization, but that the moves were necessary to build a team that has a long run of success.“That’s the name of this game right now,” Reid said. “I mean Super Bowl Nick Allegretti Jersey , the NFL now … it’s hard to hold on to players for as long as you’d like to. I mean these are three of my favorite guys and good football players who can still do this thing. But, you have this influx of young guys, you have this whole salary cap thing that you’ve got to try to juggle. You have to be half-a-genius to put this thing together and make it sustained.”The Chiefs had the league’s best offense in 2018 and having a less impressive defense didn’t stop them from landing the No. 1 seed in the AFC playoffs. They fell short of a title, though, and their plan to remedy that in 2019 and beyond is to remake the defense.
