Stand-out color and on-par with Killian's and the like. In other words an easy drinking and agreeable flavor that you don't have to think about, just enjoy.

Not sure if anyone could top the rating before this one, so I will just agree with everything Indra said. This had a nice spicy aroma and had a consistently good aftertaste, although somewhat white-bread overall impression. There are more distinctive pale ales out there.

This stuff knocked my socks off! I was really surprised at how good this tasted, with a rich dark color and full flavor. This will definitely catch up to you after a few in front of the fireplace.

Surprisingly little aroma or taste, but an all-around refreshing beer, especially ice-cold. Would definitely not be my first pick of the Breckenridge line, but miles better than that oatmeal stuff they make.

Chocolate and beer do not belong with oatmeal. Not even Wilford Brimley would approve. There are other stouts I would rather have if given the choice.

Well, I liked this one a lot...especially drinking on tap at the brewery
across from Coor's field I also liked the bottled version but it wasn't nearly as
flavourable.
Now, it is a moot point as they've changed the formula and call it a pale ale. Dropped on
my like-o-meter a heck of a lot. :^(.

Smooth, a bit creamy. Balanced with a clean malt flavor and medium hoppiness. The herbal hop flavor is slight. Dark copper-red color, small head and good lacing. Aroma is sharp and slightly bready. Overall good, and quaffable.

Quite dry - with plenty of chocolate in the aroma and flavor. Mild roastiness. Moderate body, not heavy but definitely not empty, nicely smooth. Moderate coffee presence. Perhaps even some smokiness in the finish? A very nice stout.

This stuff is quite widely distributed. Why? I know there are much more deserving beers in Colorado.
