The Dreamer

Inspired by Rudyard Kipling’s The Fairies’ Siege: The poem ends with the line, "Tis the Dreamer whose dreams come true!" Originally brewed as a hop-forward ale to survive the transoceanic journey from England to India, The Dreamer rewards those with an adventurous spirit and curious palate like the risk-takers who first exported the style.

A simple malt bill of American pale malt for a smooth and delicate malt flavor, the backbone of any good IPA. Our base grain is complemented by a touch of Crystal malt to help balance the hop bitterness and provide additional character. Where our beer shines is in the hop regime used. Starting with Apollo added to the boil kettle as we transfer the mash wort. After 60 minutes of boiling we add a hop blend called Falconers Flight. As we turn off the kettle and begin our whirlpool El Dorado and Mosaic are added. The wort is transferred through our hopback full of cascade. We then use multiple dry hop additions. The result of this process is to create an IPA that has a balanced bitterness and a huge punch of hop flavor and aroma...The Dreamer is not West Coast and not East Coast, but rather we think of it as a Colorado IPA.
