Deviant Dale’s IPA Special Release BeerBQ 8/27

bdern — Mon, 22 Aug 2011 22:11:05 +0000

It’s back– Deviant Dale’s IPA, a sensory assault for hop lovers. Join us this Saturday, August 27th, at the Original Oskar Blues Grill & Brew for a PIG smokin’ BeerBQ to celebrate the release of this crazy beer.

At 8% ABV, four hop additions, and a final excessive wallop of Columbus dry-hopping, this beer is meant to say one thing: MORE HOPS! The Deviant is a returning favorite from the little brewery in Lyons, Colorado that started the CANNED Revolution with Dale’s Pale Ale.

In addition to the smokin’ pig we’ll have going in a serving tank-turned BBQ pit, we’ll have a pie baking contest, dunk tank, three bands going, and, of course, BEER! Music talents include Aaron Stueck, a local guitarist from Boulder, Discolored Perception, From Snowmass, and Thunder Porpoise.

GUBNA Imperial IPA

chadmelis — Tue, 16 Feb 2010 16:35:50 +0000

Emphasizing complexity of character can arise from simple elements, this ale is made with 3 malts & a single Summit hop. Its light amber color & slightly spicy malt character are derived from the use of German Dark Munich Malt & Rye Malt respectively. This beer will greet with a pungent citrus blast, provide a spicy yet round middle & finish with a brisk, clean bitterness. (10% ABV, 100IBU’s)
