This beer derives its name from one of the world’s tallest peaks which, loosely translated, means "goddess rich in sustenance." Chock full of malted barley with mild hop overtones, this ale itself is rich in sustenance.
This easy-drinking Vienna Lager has a lighter body than the copper-amber color of the beer would suggest. Smooth malt flavors of light caramel and toast are supported by slightly herbal and spicy European hops and a clean Lager finish.

Malts: Pilsner, Vienna, Special W, Carafa Special III

Finally not overbitter amber. Super mild in all respects, a bold beer because every flaw oughta stand out, and there are some minor ones. But overall decent. Mountain sun boulder

Sample at Vine Street Pub in Denver. Clear dark amber color with a medium off-white head that recedes quickly. Spotty lacing on the glass. Aroma of roast malt, caramel and hops. Light-bodied with flavors of caramel malt and earthy hops, plus a bit of fruit. The finish is sweet with a short malty aftertaste. Slightly above average overall.

Tap at the Vine Street Pub, Denver. Poured a hazy dark amber with a thin white head. The aroma is a big yeast and a hint of malt. The flavour is weak bitter with a malty yeast slightly metallic palate.

tap at Mountain Sun - Pours amber and has a nutty, caramel malt aroma. The taste is a very typical amber ale with sweet caramel malt dominating some mild hops. It’s light to medium bodied and quite drinkable if uninspiring.

An unclear dark orange beer with no head. The aroma is very light malty. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of fruit and oranges, leading to a dry spicy and hoppy end.
