Boulder Beer Hazed & Infused

Brewed by Boulder Beer Company
Style: American Pale Ale
Boulder, Colorado USA

Pours a four-finger bubbly white head that fades slowly leaving a good lace. Cloudy amber color. Medium bodied and medium carbonation. Piney nose. Flavor is piney hops with lingering piney aftertaste. $2.15 for a 12oz bottle from Colonial Spirits, Acton, Ma.

12 oz. bottle served in a shaker. Brownish-orange in color. A little hazy. ;) Short off-white head. Light hoppy aroma and light hoppy body. Thin texture and a soft, green tea-like finish. A refreshing session beer for a warm spring day.

On tap at Boulder Beer Tap House at DIA. Pours cloudy light-brown amber, with a thin off-white head, not much lacing. Light aroma, bread, apple, and caramel. Light body, low carbonation. Tastes much like the smell, with a little bit of citrus and hay. Well balanced. Tastes more like an ESB than a Pale Ale.

Good APA almost to the level of an IPA. Good hoppy bitterness with a grapefruit/pineapple finish.

After having Cold Hop this is a bit of a let down. Pours orangey-copper color with nice lacing. Light hop aroma. Was expecting more from something that says dry-hopped on the label. Flavor is of pale malt with notes of pineapple core and grapefruit membrane providing bitterness. Easy drinking enough but there are other pale ales I’d rather have.

Bottle. Pours amber brown with a decent white head. Smells of citrus, pine and malt. Tastes of grapefruit, pine, bread crust, and vanilla. Nice sweet aftertaste, and nice soft mouthfeel. Pretty good stuff.

Poured from a bomber. Has a dark ruby amber color with a tall tan head that wisps away to form mountains. Floral sweet pineapple and orange aroma. Creamy and thick mouthfeel with a mostly sweet taste and almost no bitterness. Slightly lacking in overall balance but a really tasty beer.

This beer is OK but I couldn’t really get excited about it. I see that others have rated it highly so I don’t doubt that it is a quality beer just not one that I can get into. 2/08
