(ROCKIES) HAZED & INFUSED DRY-HOPPED ALE
Serene pine forest waft matches bitter orange peel tang and floral hop zip of mannered dry-bodied pale ale. Discernible piney mouthfeel picks up earthen resin countering sugar cookie decoy as swarming plethora of grapefruit-ripened apricot-pear fruiting and ester-y green grape rasp perk up sweet ‘n sour lemon-limed red apple pucker.

THREE FLOYDS ALPHA KING PALE ALE
Ambitious amber-clouded tan-headed pale ale softens blackened grain-roasted assertion, dry piney hop redolence, and nutty undertones with lively perfumed citrus persistence. Subsidiary orange-peeled berry-cherry conflux adds further luster. Oats-charred malt-lacquered thickness reinforces fruity essence.
