Our brand new collab with our friends at drops tomorrow. Trueborn was blended at Cellador Ales from barrels of four different batches from our cellar and then infused with dried chanterelle mushrooms, pink peppercorns and jasmine flowers before being naturally conditioned with orange blossom honey.

The beer is hyper-complex. Initially, you’re struck by the saison character on the nose. There isn’t a funky farmhouse aroma as much as the impression of a rustic beer brewed with myriad grains, each variety of which you sense you can recognize in the aroma. The grainy malt character on the nose gives way to floral jasmine and herbal notes, which are transformed on the palate with butterscotch coming to the fore, alongside a subtle minerality.

Bottles go on sale tomorrow at noon!

As this year wraps up, I want to express my deepest gratitude for all of your support this year. You’ve made 2024 something to truly celebrate. Over the past year, we’ve brewed over 350 BBL of beer (that’s about 11,000 gallons)! We’ve released 35 new beers, kept 175 barrels bubbling away in our cellar, processed over 7,000 lbs of delicious stone fruit and much more!

None of this would be possible without our amazing team. Santos, our production wizard, pours his heart and soul into every ounce of beer we make. Rob, our tireless jack-of-all-trades, keeps the wheels turning behind the scenes, from managing our bottle shop to ensuring every customer feels valued. And Adam, a long-time friend of Cellador who officially joined us a few months ago, has already become an indispensable part of the family, driving our sales and supporting us all. A huge shout-out also goes to Louis, our former sales rep, for his fantastic work, and to Gio, who recently joined us to bring Cellador Ales to even more corners of SoCal.

While 2024 presented challenges for the brewing and hospitality industries, your support has been a constant source of strength and inspiration. It means the world to us, not just as a company, but to me personally.

Looking ahead, we’re brimming with excitement for 2025! We have a treasure trove of new beers aging in our cellar (and trust me, they’re tasting incredible), some long-awaited experiments coming to fruition, a fresh year of our Syndicate Membership, exciting events and festivals, and... who knows, maybe even a taproom?!

As you gather with loved ones this holiday season, we hope you have a chance to relax, recharge, and raise a glass filled with something truly special. From all of us at Cellador Ales, we wish you a joyous holiday season and a happy New Year!

Cheers,

Alex, Santos, Rob & Adam

We’re celebrating our 8th Anniversary with a little get together with our friends at

Secret Harvests is named for the new book of the same name by David “Mas” Masumoto, and happens to be the first collaboration we’ve done with Chris Quiroga aka Woodshop Beer Co since moving down to our new location in Torrance. The base beer was actually brewed on our very first brew day after the move, back on January 19, 2023.

We started with two great-tasting barrels of our aged hop saison aka “Snakes & Ladders.” That base uses Lambic-style aged hops, which lend that funky/cheesy character as well as El Dorado hops, which provide pineapple and other tropical fruit notes. The barrels were dosed three different times with Brazilian peppertree honey and allowed to ferment dry each time. Next, we racked the beer onto hand cut and hand crushed late-harvest Spring Bright nectarines from Masumoto Family Farm. After 6 months on the fruit, the beer was bottled and naturally conditioned; not with our normal addition of orange blossom honey, but with an oleo-saccharum made from the rinds of bergamot grown by JJ’s Lone Daughter Ranch. It has been resting in the bottle for almost 10 months.

The beer drinks exceptionally dry and somehow still manages to hide its high abv. Give it a little room and time to breathe in your glass and you’ll be rewarded with notes of bright floral citrus, preserved peaches and intense honey. Delve deeper and you’ll find farmhouse rusticity that’s more mineral than it is spicy.

Each bottle features a label with an image inspired by the cover artwork of Mas’ new book and carved into a stamp by my wife, Emma. Chris and I inked and stamped each label by hand so you’ll notice some variation in the print.

I hope you love this beer. I do.

Cheers,

Alex
