Today, while shopping for same basic beer for Kathy's anual cookie party this evening, I found a real gem hidden among the more pedestrian beverages -- thre six-packs of Sierra Nevada Brewing's Celebration Ale.
A relatively light carmel-colored beer, with a hop aroma that is like rubbing your face in a pine tree. A mix of Challenger and Centennial hops contribute as much flavor as aroma so the taste is a green as the smell.
I once drove 150 miles to the Sierra Nevada brewery to buy this beer, so finding it was a real surprise. Chico is a long way from Denver.
