There is only one beer made every year that celebrates that brewery to the fullest. This beer is their opus or symposium if you will. This is the Anniversary Ale. Microbreweries across the country create a special beer once a year every year to celebrate the past and bring in the new. Some of these ales are the same beer every year just tweaked while others are entirely new styles. Some are meant to be aged for years until being opened while others are meant to be drank immediately. Whichever the case may be these ales are very special, not only to the microbrewery that brews them, but to the loyal fans who wait for ales release.
