Description
Colorado Native Amber Lager is a brilliant amber lager made with pale and caramel malts from Moravian two-row barley grown in the San Luis Valley. Its malt character has been carefully balanced against select bittering hops, resulting in a full-flavored, yet balanced beer. Lager yeast fermentation gives rise to a slight fruitiness, which complements a citrus aroma character from a late kettle hop addition. The beer delivers a clean taste and dry finish. Native is great solo, but also pairs well with a wide range of foods.Colorado Native beers are the only beers brewed with 100% Colorado ingredients-barley from the San Luis Valley, Rocky Mountain water, 100% Colorado grown hops, and the oldest variety of brewing yeast in the state. In addition, Colorado Native specialty beers feature Colorado grown fruits and crops. There are a lot of good beers in Colorado, but the vast majority of the barley and hops used to brew them comes from out of state.By using only Colorado grown hops and barley, Colorado Native beers not only support the Colorado agricultural community, they have, almost single-handedly created a market for Colorado grown hops and a new category of agriculture for Colorado farmers and their families. By enjoying Colorado Native beers, you help to support the hop farmers and barley growers of Colorado.Colorado Native sources all of its ingredients from within Colorado and does not sell beer outside the state. The bottles are made in Wheat Ridge and the cans are made in Golden. All of this adds up to a smaller carbon footprint and a great tasting all-Colorado beer.
