About this beer

Groove Brewing’s Scranton Steam Beer is a California Common, weighing in at 6% alcohol by volume and packaged in a 16-ounce pint can. The beer is described on the label as a nod to the historic steam beer tradition, employing a unique open fermentation process with a proprietary lager yeast. This results in a notably smooth and approachable brew, characterized by a subtle malt sweetness and delicate hop character derived from the use of Cluster hops. The label artwork features a dark, detailed illustration of gears and floral elements surrounding the brewery’s name and a depiction of the Scranton cityscape at dusk, lending a vintage, industrial aesthetic.

The beer itself is a testament to its origin, embracing the pre-refrigeration brewing techniques of 19th-century California. Notably, the label includes standard warnings regarding alcohol consumption and responsible behavior. This brew aims to recreate a style known for its crispness and balanced flavor profile, offering a refreshing alternative to heavily hopped or intensely flavored beers.
