Space and hemp lovers unite in this beer from Uinta brewing. The Dubhe Imperial Black IPA is named after the star that illuminates the front of the big dipper which became Utah’s Centennial star in 1996. That’s the space part. The hemp part comes from the fact that this beer is brewed…
With the first day of Spring just around the corner, we thought it might be a nice time to try something on the lighter side of the flavor spectrum. Thankfully Four Peaks Brewing has just such a beer available in a can with their Sunbru Kölsch Style Ale. This style originated in Cologne,…
What the Helles have we brought to the tasting table today? A Helles Bock or Maibock of course! This is the first of four beers in a new series from New Belgium Brewing called Hop Kitchen. The beer being poured today is called Hoppy Bock Lager and is made with rye (always…
