On the way out of Denver, I decided to kill time at the Boulder Tap House in the airport, and I ordered a glass of the Cold Hop. The beer pours an amber color with a frothy off-white colored head. The aroma is bitter with pine, lemon, grass, caramel smells. The taste is fresh with lots of pine hop goodness, some nice oils, and a caramel backbone. The finish is smooth and slightly bitter with some pepper. The alcohol content is 6.8% ABV. I enjoyed the freshness of this beer, and I feel like it trump those light beer commercial asking you to drink cold and fresh beer. This was smooth and easy drinking, but with plenty of flavor.
