Helm’s Brewing was born in San Diego, California, by four shipbuilders who set out to brew great tasting beer for their community, fellow servicemen and families. As true craftsmen, Helm’s utilized their kinship and industrial expertise to hand build their own brewery the same way they construct their ships. Since 2012, Helm’s has engineered a fleet of award winning beers deserving of people who navigate daily life through creativity and hard work.
Beeruccino: A porter by Malt recipe, Beeruccino is a suitable replacement to an after dinner Cup-of-Joe. We use highly roasted malts in the mash. During the boil an addition of clean American hops and black pepper match the complexities of locally roasted coffee. Almond wood chips add subtle vanilla notes to round it out during fermentation.
Batten Down Brown: This Brown Ale offers a rich, bready, and toffee like malt profile that ends with a nutty punch. Six varieties of malts contribute to this complex medium bodied brew while a touch of hops counter the barley’s natural sweetness.
Captains Pale Ale: Our take on the classic American pale ale. Lightly roasted caramel malts provide a pleasant mouth feel to accompany the citrus and tropical American hops. The hop additions are late in the boil process to ensure a clean and refreshing finish. This is a great summer San Diego beer.
Goosefoot Ginger: This beer is a Belgian strong amber ale made with quinoa to accompany the spicy yeast and wild yeast used in the fermenting process. The added crystalized ginger, golden raisins and candied beet sugars make this beer a great partner for pungent cheeses, apples & figs.
Hop The RIPA: This Red India Pale Ale is a sterling example of excess. Ample amounts of malts and hops provide a fresh aroma to this curiously balanced and malty beer. Hops in both the boil and dry hop process will keep a delicious aroma throughout the pint. This beer is very capable of overloading the unsuspecting pallet.
Wicked As Sin: This beer is fresh and spicy with resinous hops and very little malt presence. The piney and earthy hops provide a stand out character for this West-coast style rye IPA that is untraditional to that of a common San Diego IPA.
