You might as well stop at Oscer Blues while your out in that direction. They just moved their tasting room to longmont from Lyons which isnt too far out of the way.

Dale's is really good! I also like Old Chub, although the alcohal is a little too high for me but I think that adds to the flavor of the beer and wouldnt taste the same with it any less. I'm really looking for a good clone recipe of it to make at home.

I definitely will! I am a big hop-head.

It's a hard one to find but Broken Halo IPA brewed in Oregon is really good. One of my top IPAs

A clone of DPA or Old Chub? I did a pretty close clone to DPA. I want to clone the IPA at Rock Bottom called Gila. I havn't had much luck finding a clone recipe for it as of yet. I know its dry hopped with Amarillo which Is a very tasty hop.

A clone of the Old Chub.

You have the same palette as I do! I also like the Rock Bottom's IPA especually because they hop their IPA with only Amerillo. If you find a clone of that, let me kow. I wish it wasnt a seasonal, I asked for it the other day and nope, season is over.:(

I love Amarillo and is great for all around bittering, taste and aroma. I am actually growing them. Unfortunatally I didnt harvest in time this year because I was too busy.

Yeah I went and did some tasters at Left Hand and the guy that was serving me just sat and talked **** about all the fort collins breweries. This was after we tried them all so I didnt make my decision on what beers I like based on his comments. lol . I think he was a little bitter (no pun intentded) about the fact that he was serving so-so beer. I try to stay as un-bias about breweries as I can, I just want a good beer, I dont care where its from, so long as I like it. I am glad though, that fort collins has some pretty dang good micro brews. But I agree, Left Hand has yet to impress me with anything as of yet.

Its been a while since I have tried any Left Hand. Did you try any tonight that you liked?
nope ...i had milks stout, sawtooth and deep cover tonight ..id rather drink little kings ...lol....seriously all jokes aside it was all nasty

Left Hand made some ginger one that was pretty good. Yea Isolation Ale is good. Boulder Brews Hazed and Infused can be good but can be bad. They don't seem like they keep clean or they mess something up quite a bit there. I have tried a number of beers from there and seems like every other one I try taste different.
