New Beer Friday 2/3/23

Had a lot of fun doing "research" yesterday. There's so much tasty stuff available for us all this weekend, I think you be pleased. Happy New Beer Friday!

Proper Brewing joins Mikey and Steph on Beer Nerd Radio today. We'll get into what comprises the Proper empire, what's coming next and of course the beer. That's at 2pm on 99.9FM KUAA. or stream us at KUAAFM.org/

Grid City - Hazy India Pale Ale: This new Double IPA features Citra, Whole Flower El Dorado, Azzaca and Galaxy Hops. Looks like an unfiltered West Coast IPA, "haze aficionados" will be bent I'm sure. Actually, this is all around a nice WC DIPA.

Fruity up front with a bit of pine in the back. Medium bitterness, with a hint of heat. A nice competitor for Ferda & Elephino. 9.2% Available at Grid City.

TF - Protect Ya Neckta: Like the previous DIPA, this is also a "Hazy" However, This one fits the bill. It looks the part & has all of the fruited components. This is very stone fruit & Melon forward; these damn Nectaron hops are full of flavor with citrus backing it up. This is damn delicious. 8.8% - Available starting today at TF.

Uinta - Fava Lager: Pro Snowboarder, Pat Fava collaborated on this new Japanese-style lager with Uinta. Hearty grainy flavor, the malt seems to have a light sweetness to it. Rice adds a nuttiness to the flavor midway through. Flavors of barley and grain return in the finish and linger in the back of the throat. Hops are herbal and lemony. 5.0% - Only on draft at Uinta.

Uinta - Harvest of Tartness: This sour saison comes from Uinta’s experimental labs. at first sip, there wasn't much saison character, just lacto sourness. Second sip, yeah, the yeast is more noticable. The tartness here is a little overpowering and kinda rules the whole show. Check it out and let me know what you think. 5.0% - Only on draft at Uinta. 

Talisman - Mon Cheri (Sweetheart): This White Stout with Cherries is a lighter beer with the traditional flavors of a stout. Talisman omitted dark grains traditionally used in a stout and utilized a combo of coffee beans from Daily Rise Coffee and cocoa nibs from Aggie Chocolate to replicate a stout profile. 5.0%

Park City/Salt City Suds - Salt City Haze: Ivan of Salt City Suds Podcast has teamed up with Park City Brewing's Troy Higgins to make a special collaboration Hazy. Look for this on Saturday 2/4. 5.0% - Only available at Park City Brewing.

Cheers!
