“It really depends on what my daughter wants to dress up as – we tend to all go as a theme,” said Kevin McGee, President and CEO. McGee explained “She was Princess Leia one year and I got to be a Jedi, so that one worked out well but this year is up in the air a bit. She’s really into Marvel Universe characters now but my wife and I are feeling ‘Plague Doctor’ might be more topical so we have some thinking to do.” McGee continued “It’s going to take a few Fall Hornin’s to figure it all out.” 

Fall Hornin’ is available on draft and sold in 6-packs of 12-ounce cans and is available nationally through select retailers. 

Known for capturing the essence of autumn with classic spices and a smooth finish, Fall Hornin’ is a go-to beer to savor the fall season and continues to be one of Anderson Valley Brewing Company’s most popular and anticipated seasonal beers.  Striving to craft beers that become a part of traditions and celebrations, AVBC brews Fall Hornin’ to bring flavors that meet the sense of the season and deliver quintessential fall flavors in a complex, brilliant beer. Best yet, Fall Hornin’ pairs perfectly with seasonal cuisine and spirited discussions of costuming.

Fall Hornin’ (AVB 6%): With a deep copper hue and creamy beige-colored head, Fall Hornin’ Pumpkin Ale has inviting aromas of caramelized malt and baking bread with highlights of cinnamon, nutmeg, pumpkin and seasonal spices. The pleasantly creamy mouthfeel and silky body embrace the sweet caramel flavors and tang of spices (with just a hint of hops) that ends in a smooth, round finish.

Fall Hornin is available at fine purveyors of quality beer throughout the US.  For information on Anderson Valley Brewing Company’s distribution visit, https://avbc.com/find-our-beer/

“We bought the brewery in December, in large part because of the history, connection, and authenticity it has,” said Kevin McGee, President of Anderson Valley Brewing Company. “We plan to be here for a very long time, and we want to continue to support our community. That is why we are allocating a percentage of the proceeds from three of our popular beers – Boonville Gold, Hop Ottin’ IPA, and Poleeko Pale Ale – to support The Community Foundation’s COVID-19 Relief Fund.”

The COVID-19 Relief Fund was created by The Community Foundation of Mendocino County to support basic needs of Mendocino County residents impacted by the pandemic. To date the Foundation has released $70,000 in food relief countywide, and $100,000 for immediate financial assistance.

Using the spring season in Northern California’s Anderson Valley as the inspiration to create this unique beer. AVBC’s goal was to craft a beer with full flavor and character, yet still light and refreshing enough to enjoy while being active outside and with friends. 

Tropical Hazy Sour is brewed to be pleasingly tart and refreshing using a traditional kettle souring method, similar to AVBC’s renowned and award-winning Gose series of beers. 

Tropical flavors are introduced in the fermentation process through the use of real guava and passionfruit. Finally, the AVBC brewing team found that leaving the beer hazy resulted in a more aromatic beer and added to the overall balance of the beverage. 

Through an enormous exercise of skill and wit, the brewery kept the beer low-calorie and low-carb– as a bonus. The active, outdoor lifestyle folks out there have something new and meaningful to sweat for. 

Tropical. Hazy. Sour. Springtime in a glass and only 125 calories.
