HEYDAY is an eminently pleasant Belgian-Style White Ale. Brewed with barley, oats and raw wheat, Heyday is uniquely flavorful for such an easy-drinking ale. With a slightly cloudy appearance and traditional yeast, it is a balanced, agreeable offering. Exuding mild hop bitterness and a nuanced body, this is the easiest decision you’ll make all day.

Tap at Great Divide Barrel Room. Deep orange, hazy, with lace. Nose of oranges, vanilla, bourbon. Nice hoppy flavor, bourbon, vanilla, wood, caramel / toffee. Works pretty well for a difficult style.

Enjoyed on tap in sampler form at Great Divide barrel room in Denver, CO. Appearance is a moderate brown with a moderate white bubbly head. Aroma of bourbon and light hops, bourbon is the definite ingredient. Taste is really good, hops come in a little more in the flavor, but really its the bourbon that shines. Fantastic stuff!

On tap at the Barrel bar. Mellow orange gold color with an orange and vanilla coconut aroma. Medium to full bodied with a dry finish. The taste is almost like an oakey orange julep with vanilla. Quite different from the original Hercules but very good stuff.

Sample at the Great Divide Barrel Bar. The beer is a clear orange color with a medium white head that recedes steadily to a wispy film. Small patches of lacing on the glass. Aroma of bourbon, hops and malt. Medium to full body with flavors of oaky bourbon, vanilla, resiny hops and malt. The finish is mildly boozy with an oaky and hoppy aftertaste. Pretty good overall.

bottle - Pours slightly hazy pale yellow with a one finger white head. It smells of wheat malt, yeast, and some spice. The flavor is sweet with a touch of spice and citrus. Refreshing.

On tap at Petrol Station. Pours a cloudy gold with small off white head that lasts. The aroma is strong yeast, grass, and pepper. Medium mouth, strong wheat, lemon zest, and spice, decent.
