Known for Fruit Wheat Ale

Cali Squeeze was created in 2017 by SLO Brewing Co. in San Luis Obispo as a hefeweizen brewed with blood orange juice and quickly became that brewery's top seller. Firestone Walker bought the brand in 2021 and has brewed it in Paso Robles since, keeping its own name, website and look. The range consists of fruit-forward wheat ales on a shared base of two-row barley, white and torrefied wheat and cara-pils, each brewed with real fruit: blood orange, raspberry with lime, and peach with pomegranate.

How we measure this

Two thresholds are at work here:

  • The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
  • The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.

A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
