You can tell autumn is rolling in because of the slow march of German style lagers that are rolling in. I'd also like to formally welcome Offset Bier to the Utah Beer family. The small batch brewery is located in Park City and is helmed by Patrick Bourque in the brewhouse. Happy New Beer/Brewery Friday!
Offset Bier - NZ Pale: Love Nelson Savin hops. Citrus peel with great berry notes. This is delish.
Offset Bier - Fruited Sour: Feijoa, kiwi & tangerine is a brilliant fruit combo for a sour ale.
Offset Bier - Blonde: Nice citrus & floral hop profile.
Offset Bier - ROTO IPA: Chewy & nearly dank. Think: old school hops.
Offset Bier - DIVI IPA: Light & fruity. Some herbal qualities. Slightly bitter finish.
Saltfire - This is Barry: No, this isn't a misprint and this is not a TF beer, though the clan at TF were consulted on this tongue in cheek play on their theme. There's a ton of local berries in this milkshake IPA. It's defiantly a smoothie. Lactose is is medium/light with a good dose of bittering hops to remind you this is an IPA. 8.0% Available at Saltfire.
Hopkins - Munich Helles: At first whiff and swig I could tell that this was a textbook Helles. There's a touch of sweetness that balances an assertive addition of spicy German hop flavor and light bitterness. 5.0% Only at Hopkins.
Shades - Kiwi Sour Ale: No lactose is this one. It just relies on the kiwi and the base beer's tartness. The fruit it bright and it works well with Kveik sourness. A great fruited sour. 6.5% - Available at Shades and better beer pubs.
Bewilder - Oktoberfest: Beautiful golden appearance with a delicious creamy white head. Decent carbonation. Aroma of grain and floral. Slight noble hops. Taste clean and well balanced a slight hoppy brightness is balanced by a bready maltiness. Refreshing and easy drinking. This debuts this Saturday for Bewilders Oktoberfest celebration. 5.0% - Only at Bewilder.
Uinta - Westside Special Helles: This small batch beer debuts today. No tasting notes on this one. 5.0% - Only at Uinta.
Strap Tank - Smoke Stack: A medium to light amount of smoke with a sweet caramel base. This is a great, subtle smoke beer. If you're looking to get familiar with the style, this would be a good place to start. 5.0% - Available at Strap Tank.
Jolly Pumpkin - Yikes!: This is a sour saison. Not much of the saison comes through. Mostly a pleasant barrel sourness that is solid, but one dimensional. 5.8% - Found at Beer Bar.
Jolly Pumpkin - Lo-Fi-Mai Tai: Missed this one. Found at Beer Bar.
Revision - The Bruff: Missed this Double NEIPA. 8.0% - Found at the Bayou
Bombastic - Stubbornness: Missed this English-style Barleywine. 12.9% - Found at the Bayou.
Bombastic - Shiver Coffee Stout: Missed this Imperial Coffee Stout 10.5% - Found at the Bayou
Prost!
