Our staple Mountain Sun Beers are on tap at all of our pubs on a regular basis!
Annapurna Amber
Named after the famous mountain in Nepal, this Amber is light-bodied, but malt-forward, with flavors of light caramel and toast. It has a subdued fruitiness and clean finish from the German yeast, and just enough hop bitterness to balance the overall flavor profile.

Big Krane Kölsch
This traditional German beer has a floral, spicy aroma from European hop varieties. A light malty sweetness balances the hop bitterness, and a small addition of acidulated malt adds brightness to the overall character. The clean fermentation profile of the German yeast allows the flavors of the malts and hops to truly shine.

Colorado Kind Ale
This American Extra Special Bitter boasts a unique combination of toasty caramel malt with classic Cascade hop flavor and aroma. This brand is considered a “varietal” because it only uses one hop variety. Non-hoppy beer drinkers may discover Colorado Kind to be a surprisingly approachable hoppy beer. Just ask for a pint of “the dank”!

F.Y. I.P.A.
F’ Ya! I.P.A. is our House West Coast I.P.A. and features four American hop varieties that blend together to form an intensely aromatic and flavorful ale. Four kettle additions and one huge dose of dry hops make this beer citrusy and resinous throughout. Although this beer is “all about the hops,” most people find it surprisingly balanced.
