Beers Brewed At The Crown City Brewery:

Mt. Wilson Wheat Beer A golden America wheat style beer with a clean finish that is perfect for the arid climate of Southern California. It is a Krystal Weisen (clear wheat beer) produced with 25% Malted Wheat and 75% Two Row Malted Barley. Cluster and Cascade hops are responsible for the well balanced hop aroma.

Arroyo Amber Ale An American style Ale inspired by the English pale ales. This beer contains Carapils, Carmel Malt, and a pinch of Chocolate Malt to produce the nutty flavor. The fruity finish and pleasing aroma from Cascade, Nugget and Mt. Hood hops round out the flavor of this medium brown colored ale.
