Now that Ska Brewing is in L.A., it is time to work on getting another Colorado brewery over here. And that means Upslope to me. And they have given me another reason to want their cans on shelves here in SoCal…..
“Our original North Boulder brewery at Lee Hill has been a hotbed of creativity lately, crankin’ out some killer small batch brews for our tap rooms, and is now the home of the Lee Hill Series – a quarterly, limited release series celebrating experimentation and creativity. This Series, served up in 19.2 ounce cans, offers new and innovative styles that are sure to be cellar keepsakes.”
Yup, cans to cellar. Barrel aged then put into cans. Brown Ale. Daring choice in a time of hopped madness but this beer spent “four months in first use Maryland Rye Whiskey barrels from Leopold Bros. ” I have had the pleasure of a few beers aged in that spirit makers barrels and they were excellent so I expect nothing less from this one.
