Road Trip to Colorado

We just got back home from our Colorado road trip so I wanted to share a few photos. We only went to a few breweries in Boulder because we actually spent more time hiking than drinking. There are so many choices out there but one of the breweries we liked the best was Twisted Pine. They have a Sweet Amarillo beer (4.8% ABV, 25 IBU) that was amazzing. It is an American Cream Ale and the light grapefruit flavor is refreshing.


We also enjoyed our visit to Sanitas. I tried the Balaton Cherry Saison (5.9% ABV, 22 IBU) and Eric had the “Poolside” Pale Ale (4.7% ABV, 41 IBU). It was a fun brewery and they had a great patio out back.





We also had great time hiking in the Rocky Mountain National Park. We stayed in Estes Park and our last night there we had dinner at Marys Lake Lodge and tried a few of Marys brews. We sat at the bar had a great view and were able to watch the first football game of the NFL season.



I wasn’t expecting much but I was blown away by the quality. We will go back to Mary’s for sure our next trip to Estes.  If you want to check out more of our hiking pics I am posting them to our other blog http://vegetariansouth.blogspot.com
