Denver Pale Ale

I like the presentation (the labels) on the Great Divide range – simple and striking, especially the colors.
Pale orange pour with not much head or lacing but it does leave a nice thin film on the surface of the body. Fine bubbles of carbonation persist.
Sweet grass in the nose. The tastes are rather soapy in their hop nature. Good malt and hop balance are the keys to the success of this beer. Despite the balance there is a small bitter hop finish that lingers and warms. As it warms the hops seem to get stronger.
Sessionable (by American standards) and crossover qualities/potential.
