One of the best lagers i have ever tasted. It was malty, and crisp with a clean finish. 2 gold medals and a bonze at the GABF so you know this one is worth this visit. I was told they are about to start a new brewery and expand into the south west with this flagship beers

Has an excellent aroma right-away. Good head. Good color and CO2. A very tasteful/delicious beer. A fine beer and will be going on my good list.

Gorgeous ruby pour, decent head and a wonderful aroma. Only the slightest hint of chemical hold this beer back from greatness.

Saw this in the store and remembered walking past the brewery in Durango, CO the last time I was out there. Was a little worried what I was getting into with things that the label states. But I was very impressed with this Amber Lager, and have bought it several times since first trying it.

A lager with character. Flavorful, nice body, slightly dark color, good head retention. Refreshing

Pours a gorgeous copper but the head dies immediately. A bit of a sweet aroma with little malt and no hops detected. For as dark and rich as it looks this has a surprisingly light feel in the mouth. No hops, just a smidgen of aftertaste. This doesn’t taste anything like you’d expect. So it’s disappointing in that aspect. But it is very refreshing. With it’s light mouth feel I’d drink/serve this over a typical light beer any day. Paid $2.50 ($1.50 plus the cork fee) at Three Cellars in Franklin, Wisconsin.

Pours copper w/ a shallow spritzy froth. Aroma is crisp w/ a slight nutty malt. Light nectar w/ ample residual effers. Flavors are crisp and mellow w/ a nutty character. The finish has a nice bittering to it. This is a good session brew. The can has brighter flavors w/ a biscuity nose.
