Commercial Description:
Introducing Cold Hop British-style ale, a unique ale with a rich golden hue, and the 7th release in our Looking Glass Series of specialty beers. Cold Hop's pleasantly fruity, floral hop aroma and earthy flavor perfectly balance the mild sweetness of the English grains, resulting in a refreshing yet high-gravity British-Style ale.

From a 22 oz bottle this poured a nice apricot color with light yellow head that was big and fizzy and left great lacing. Nose of piney and fruity hops, light malts and a touch of flowers. Good rich mouthfeel. Flavor is of fruits and hops, and there is nice long bitter finish. Very enjoyable to drink.

On tap at BT. Amber orange with a small head. Aroma is blood orange and caramel. Flavor has a nice, dusty hop bite to it to go along with the sweet malt bill. One of the better Boulder beers.

bottle poured an amber in color with a thin white head on the surface and light carbination. aroma has hops spices, grapefruit, sweet malt, and light fruit. mouth feel is medium with active carbination. flavor has nice hops but not as strong as i would have thought, sweet fruit, and some flowery notes. finishes with some bitterness and spicy hops. good brew more like a toned down ipa. became more caramelized as it warmed and overall was a nice drinker.

Bottle: Caramel color, spicy celery hop note. Full-on cheap glycerin, 2-row, medium body. Hoppy tail, light malt, bland and uninspired.

Decent piney hops in aroma from the pour. Less hops that an IPA but more flavor than a standard APA (which is what i thought it would be classified as) Drinkable, not outstanding.

22 oz. bottle from Sun Devil Liquors - Pours a hazy amber color with a one finger thick light tan head. Very light spotty lacing. Aroma is toasted malt, light floral hops, and light esters. Flavor is lightly sweetened malt, esters, and a dose of hops. Medium body. A decent beer.

aromatic hop burst, mild hop backing. copper hue, cotton fluffy white head. this is what i expect an english bitter to taste like. consistent smooth soft caramel malt foundation allows an earthy swirl of spicy hops.
