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.

Tap @ brewery. Cloudy yellow orange appearance with an off white head. Tons of tropical fruit- mango, pineapple, lemon, orange- sweet, almost candy-like, citrusy hoppy aroma. Creamy, huge tropical fruity, mango, pineapple, big orange, citrusy hoppy flavor. Fuck yeah. Update: Batch #1 @ taproom was 4.3. New cans are pretty good, 3.6. Splitting the difference and putting this at 3.8 for now.

Sample at Dad & Dude’s. The beer is a clear yellow-gold color with a thin white head that recedes to a film quickly. Spotty lacing on the glass. Aroma of grainy malt and mild hops. Light body with flavors of bready malt, grain and lightly bitter hops. The finish is short and malty. Barely average overall.
