Producer's Notes: 

Founded in San Francisco more than 100 years ago, Anchor Brewing & Distilling Company remains an innovator in the beverage industry. Fritz Maytag, the pioneer of modern craft brewing, became the instrumental force behind the company's resurrection in 1965, and sparked the modern craft spirits movement in the United States. Today, Anchor continues its tradition of artisan craftsmanship with the launch of Hophead Vodka. Inspired by the mesmerizing aroma of hops that permeates the brewery and distillery, head distiller Bruce Joseph and brewmaster Mark Carpenter, two of the original visionaries of the company, developed Hophead Vodka using small copper pot stills and two varieties of hops. The result is a vodka built on flavor, but not a "flavored" vodka. This premium craft spirit captures the fresh, aromatic character of hops without the typical bitterness.
