Anchor Brewing Company
 PROFILE
Running full steam ahead, craft brewer Anchor Brewing sells about 110,000 barrels a year of its seven brews. Led by flagship beer Anchor Steam, the company's beers and ales also include Anchor Porter, Anchor Small Beer, Anchor Wheat, Liberty Ale, Old Foghorn, and Our Special Ale -- a seasonal holiday brew that changes each year. Started in the 1860s, the brewery was saved from bankruptcy in 1965 by current owner and CEO Fritz Maytag (an heir to the Maytag appliance fortune). Anchor Brewing sells its brews in 49 states, Canada, Japan, the Netherlands, and the UK. The company also operates Anchor Distilling, which produces Junipero gin and Old Portero rye whiskey.
