Gordon is a unque take on the Double IPA style, it's made with six different malts and three types of hops, then dry-hopped with a mutha lode of Amarillo hops. It is 9.3% alcohol by volume, and has 85 International Bittering Units.
It features a gooey, resiny aroma and a luscious mouthfeel. Unlike most double IPA’s, ours has a dash of chocolate malt in it to round out the load of hops and balance the beer.
We brew Gordon in tribute to the late Gordon Knight. In addition to opening some of Colorado’s first microbreweries, Knight was a Vietnam vet, grade-A citizen, and huge promoter of craft beer. He lost his life in 2002 while fighting a wild fire outside of Lyons, Colorado.
