Pilsner malt, dark Munich malts and Palisade hops combine to produce a smooth, velvety malt character and a balanced hop finish. A Mammoth Brewing Company original inspired by another original, the man himself: Dave McCoy, founder of the Mammoth Mountain Ski Area.

Bottle as Real McCoy Amber Ale at 4.5%. Aroma of mixed malts. Medium amber color with a finely bubbled beige head. Near medium body with creamy carbonation (it’s bottle conditioned). The flavor is smooth caramel malt, with a light roasted note, and a decent amount of bitter follows. The finish is about the same. Bitter builds a little with time. It seems more towards an ESB than an Alt. Good beer.
