Boulder Strong Ale Fest

This past weekend, April 30th, 2010, a new venue for the Boulder Strong Ale fest was tested. Avery graciously hosted this year's event and it was a much welcomed change from previous years at Harpo's in Boulder.

This Years highlights for me were:

• Meph Addict-Avery - Coffee infused Belgian Imperial Stout - 15.1%
• Black Tot - Avery - Imperial Oatmeal Stout aged in Gosling's Old Rum barrels - 10.1%
• Melange #3-Bruery-Blend of Bourbon barrel aged wheat wine, Imp. stout & Old ale - 15.0%
• Javapeno Imperial Stout-Golden City Brewing-Cold infused with chipolte and espresso - 8.5%
  
• Barrel Aged Gordons - OskarBlues - Gordons aged in Boulder Creek Winery Port barrel -8.7%
  
• Fritz and Ken's Ale - Collaboration with Anchor Steam and Sierra Nevada - 9.2%
