Great Divide Colette Farmhouse Ale

Today was a crazy day at work. I actually worked some overtime and jumped into an ambulance. I think it’s been about 5 years since I’ve done an ambulance trip (I did work the hurricane in an ambulance, but we didn’t get any trips). So, it’s definitely beer time and this is one from a [...]

Great Divide Hades Ale

Another review…trying to chip away at getting 731 reviews done by the second anniversary of the blog. I’ve been trying to get out my comfort zone lately with the beers that I choose to review. This one is definitely not out of my comfort zone. I love Great Divide beers. In all of the breweries [...]

Great Divide Denver Pale Ale

Training is over and the weekend is here. I started my weekend by ordering some homebrew stuff (after I get the first two out of primary, I think I’m doing an IPA and then a Sea Dog Blue Paw Wheat Ale clone). I’m currently watching a few episodes of The Tudors before getting ready for [...]

Great Divide Titan IPA

What a day. I had a training class for work, so I got to work from home. But, it ended up with me doing data entry for about 10 hours straight. I didn’t know that your arm could actually go numb from being on the computer so long. But, to break up the data entry, [...]

Great Divide Belgian Style Yeti

The second beer of the night…it’s been that type of week. This is a beer that I had on my list to get once I got the press release that it was made. I have a serious love affair with most things Great Divide (I found one brew that I really didn’t enjoy) and especially, [...]

Great Divide Samurai Ale

Long day…and it’s only Monday. But, here’s something I’ve been working on…So, I’ve been working on this project for awhile. I basically looked at all the beers that I’ve ever reviewed to see a) the breweries I’ve had the most from and b) the styles I prefer. I also wanted to use it so that [...]

Great Divide Hercules Double IPA

I’m currently watching the Phillies/Red Sox game. I really can’t stand Beckett. It’s probably because I’ve always been surrounded by Yankees fans that I subconsciously dislike them. But, I really can’t stand Beckett. Maybe it’s because of his dorky necklaces or because he acts like a big baby when he plays poorly or maybe just [...]

Great Divide Espresso Oak Aged Yeti

Today wasn’t a bad day, but not a great day either. I had a midterm in one of my classes and in the other, I got docked 10 points on a quiz for not answering a question. Funny thing was that I did answer the question. After a lengthy conversation with the professor, she gave [...]

Great Divide Old Ruffian Barley Wine

This was a brew that I was really looking forward to trying. I’m really starting to enjoy the barleywine style and I’m all about Great Divide brews. It’s also barleywine weather, which tends to help. So, without further ado… ABV: 10.2% Style: American Barleywine Trivia: According to wikipedia, ‘Ruffian’ is not only the name of [...]

Great Divide Hibernation Ale

Another offering from Great Divide. I’ve never been a fan of winter beers until this year. I’ve really started getting into winter warmers and barleywines. So, I grabbed an offering from Great Divide that jumped out at me at the beer store. ABV: 8.7% Style: Old Ale Trivia: According to wikipedia, “Old ale is a [...]
