Commercial Description:
A big bodied pale ale chock full of extra goodness. Extra malt, extra hops, extra yeast, and extra love. They don't call it "The Crippla" for nothing.

Sampled in Boulder. A very nice beer with a very hoppy full bodied flavor. Very strong in flavor with solid hops and a very malty base. A very nice brew

Draught at the brewpub. Cloudy golden coloured with a creamy white head. Fruity and hoppy aroma of grass. Fruity and hoppy flavour of grass with notes of grape fruits. Dry hoppy finish.

I have yet to be disappointed with a beer from this place and this is no exception. Superbly well balanced, with a rich malt backbone and a uber hoppy fruit juiciness throughout. Very enjoyable.

On tap at the brewpub. Incredibly great floral aroma. Strong peachy flavors and citrus fruitiness from the flavor. The type of hop taste that blasts you with floral fruitiness and not bitter harshness. Fantastic.
