Draft Beer Update
Stone Pale Ale replaced Sly Fox Royal Weisse. This is Stone's "normal beer". I haven't had this one in a while so I am looking forward to seeing how it compares to other Pale Ales.

Sixpoint Bark Ale replaced Sierra Nevada Glissade Golden Bock. Dang I didn't get to try any Glissade. Guess we'll have to try to order another. Replacing the Sierra is Sixpoint Bark Ale which is so named not because it is brewed with bark but because it was brewed for a Brooklyn restarauant with that name. It's an amber ale.

Hopbomb Troegs Nugget Nectar replaced Ithaca Flower Power IPA. Nugget Nectar is Troegs's other super-popular seasonal. The firkin of Nugget Nectar we had for Groundhog Day kicked in just a few hours. This keg won't last long.

8:30 Update Ommegang Rare Vos replaced Founders Breakfast Stout. The Ground Hog beers keep falling like dominoes. Happily the two I've been looking forward to all day (Jack and Kens and Exit 13) are still on tap. I better finish work soon. Rare Vos is a nice Belgian style amber ale.

11:00 Update replaced Trubbel de Yards. Great Divide Espresso oak-aged Yeti is an Imperial stout with a generous infusion of Denver’s own Pablo’s espresso.
