Description
WHAT'S AN UPSLOPE?
Meteorologically speaking, it’s a front range-covering, water-table-filling, snow-dumping weather pattern that anyone with bindings and a roof rack would die for. Beerologically speaking, it’s carbonated gold. In 2008, Matt Cutter, Henry Wood and Dany Page, kissed their homes in Cleveland, Atlanta and Argentina goodbye to bring their beer-brewing love affair to Boulder, Colorado. With that, Upslope Brewing Company was born. And after ten years of supplying Colorado with trailhead tallboys, and pow-day libations made from the freshest snowmelt, the finest hops and the purest passion for living life outdoors, one thing has become undeniable. These guys didn’t just float another microbrew into the sea of Colorado microbrews. They created a lineup of quality craft beer that tastes as good poured from a tap as they do pulled out of a fishing vest. In other words, for those who call the Continental Divide home, the perfect storm.

Imperial pint can, 2021 vintage. Cinnamon aroma with notes of roasted malt, chocolate, earthy rye, vanilla, coffee, coconut, oak and whiskey. Pours deep brown with a thin mocha brown head that has little retention and no lacing. Starts with rich roasted malt, chocolate, earthy rye, coffee and coconut flavors as well as having a rich, full body and silky smooth mouthfeel. Finishes very smooth with cinnamon, vanilla, oak and whiskey flavors as well as a touch of warming booze at the very end. Excellent imperial that hides the high ABV well. Perfect for a chilly evening.
