Description
Set in the scenic Blue Ridge Mountains of Central Virginia, Blue Mountain opened in 2007 as the region’s first rural brewery. Founders Taylor and Mandi Smack and Matt Nucci had a vision to bring the brewery experience out of the normal hustle and bustle of an urban environment. Today, we’re still focused on making an inspired range of the highest-quality beers that can be enjoyed at our two locations in beautiful Nelson County, or in bottles and cans throughout Virginia and beyond.

Bottle at the RBWG 2014 grand tasting, thanks! Pours a near clear gold with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a light grassy hopiness with a touch of citrus with a grain backing. Flavor has more bitter citrus with the grass, a bit of dankness and a grain backbone.

Botella de 75 cl en el lupulo, en el momento el 12-02-2014. Increíble sabor a bourbon con un cuerpo fuerte aunque con buen paso por boca y con 10 vol muy presentes. Color negro intenso con espuma beige oscuro poco persistente. Aromas a madera añeja de bourbon intensos con bastante sensación alcohólica. Sabores de madera empapada en licor de bourbon bastante intensos al principio con toques de vainilla y cacao junto con cierto dulzor. Final amargo con restos dulces y quemados de barril no muy intensos pero muy muy buenos. Muy buena cerveza con un increíble sabor a bourbon, fácil de beber y buena sensación de licor.

Bottle shared at The Bruery - thanks to Andrew! Pours clear brown with a creamy, tan head. Lots of raisins here, cake, lightly oxidised character, dark bread, some wood. Medium to full in body with fine average carbonation. Lightly warming to finish with ripe and dark berries, toffee, some tangy fruits. Not bad.

Bottled. An amber beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma has notes of malt, caramel, and bread. The flavor is sweet with notes of roasted malt, over ripe fruits, caramel, and bread, leading to a dry finish.
