Mtn Style Pale Ale

Now more than ever, we crave and celebrate all the little moments that make life so beautiful. Bonita, Bonita, a mountain-style pale ale and one of the newest members of our House Beer lineup, was inspired by moments like these: cooking outdoors with family, catching the perfect wave, afternoon naps in swaying hammocks, sharing a cooler full of cold beer, savoring the last light of the day, and gathering around the campfire.

What are the moments you delight in the most? They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder — or was it the beer holder? We never get that one right. Either way, we second that — let's all raise our cans and toast to the extraordinary and amazingly ordinary moments that lie ahead on this beautiful, beautiful adventure we call life.

Bonita, Bonita boasts hops that lend tropical fruit aromatics, subtle orange notes, and hints of honey and pine. This mouthwatering, beautiful brew is all wrapped up in a mildly sweet and light bitter finish—so good, we say it twice.

Our friends at Melvin Brewing in Alpine, Wyoming, brewed this beer for us. We are thrilled to collaborate with their team, which not only shares roots in Wyoming but also shares the same commitment to innovation, quality, and fun.

8oz pour in a three beer flight, Lazy Dog, Irvine 13th January 2022. This is a house beer in the Lazy Dog restaurant chain. Murky, dull yellow body, thin white head. Tropical fruit nose and taste, fairly sweet feel to this.
