Great Divide Brewing Company - Denver Pale Ale
Trying a new beer is always and adventure. Sometimes the adventure truly inspires and excites, and sometimes it leaves you with that empty feeling inside. My latest trial from Great Divide Brewing Co. falls in the let down category. The Denver Pale Ale looks and tastes like it should be a beer of solid quality, that is until you sip it. The first few sips were smooth and mellow, but don’t give much hint to the beer in terms of overall body and flavor. So you drink some more, still no solid indication as to the quality of this brew. Five glasses later, and I still can’t really put any words of note together to describe this particular brew. It might be a well developed ploy, just to get me to buy another six pack of the brew so I can figure it out. But then, it is decided not worth the $7.99 I paid for it either. So in the end, no more Denver Pale Ale, and Great Divide Brewing is going to have to make up for it big time on their next chance to get a more frequent spot in my beer rotation.
