New Beer Friday 3/10/23

 

On Beer Nerd radio today, Uinta Brewing rolls into the radio pub. We'll get into the Past, present and future of one this 30 year old brewery. That's at 2pm today on KUAA.

There's a nice, round selection of beers and ciders as well for your New Beer Friday. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised by some of this week's offerings. 

Bewilder - Pray for Rain: This beer was the winner of the Home Brewtah home brew competition. It's a smoked Helles. It's Pretty tasty, the smoke is never overwhelming. Nose is surprisingly muted, but palate opens up with a bit of hop spice with lightly smoked malts. Solid beer. 5.0% - Available at Bewilder.

RoHa - Mango IPA: Hopped with Amarillo and Comet this mango forward IPA has some candied mango flavors that merge with the bright citrus and pine from the hops. the finish is slightly dry. 

Strap Tank - Strawberry Beers Forever: This Philly sour has fresh strawberry, rhubarb and just a little bit of lactose in the kettle to give this tart sour a nice little sweet backbone. Look for a tart and tang beer with strawberry jam flavors. 5.0% - Available at Strap Tank in Lehi.

Red Rock - Shabop: Smell is of malt, raspberry, coconut, and vanilla aromas. Taste is much the same with slightly sour raspberry and vanilla candle flavors on the finish. There is a mild amount of acidity on the palate with each sip. 7.0% - Available at all Red Rock locations.

Mountain West - Pomme Paloma (Pink Boots Blend): Big grapefruit zest and juice. The 2023 Pink Boots hops get a bit lost, but you get the hops big time when it warms. This is quite refreshing and tasty. Very nice cider. 6.8% - Only at Mountain West. 

Stone - Enjoy By 4.20.23: Missed this one. Found at the Bayou.

Beer Zombies - BOOMSTICK: This is one of two blonde ales at Beer Zombies SLC. It's nice to have Zombie beer that’s not busting my beer lov’n plums. Grainy and lightly malty. Hops are old school grassy & floral. Good bitterness for balance. 5.5% - Only at Beer Zombies

Beer Zombies - Snowmobeer: I’m guessing this the same beer as Mason Brewing's Snowmobeer. Seems hoppier than the my previous Zombie Blonde. Dig the artwork too. Seems better overall, probably fresher too. 5.0% - Only at Beer Zombies

Lumberbeard Brewing - Double Rhythm: Missed this Double Hazy IPA brewed with Trident, Nectaron, El Dorado and Idaho Gem hops. It's described as tasting like fresh squeezed orange juice. 8.3% - Found at Slackwater.

Melvin Brewing - Dream Domicile: Missed this DDH Azacca, DBL IPA. 8.4% - Found at Slackwater.

Revision Brewing Company - Distance Haze: Missed this IPA. 8.0% - Found at Slackwater.

Oskar Blues Brewery - Cosmic Mutant: Missed this IPA. 7.2 - Found at Slackwater.

Here are this week's Small Batch Beers from Hopkins Brewing.

Cheers!
