Storm Mountain paired with Lagunitas Little Sumpin’ Sumpin’
Sometimes a hike up a mountain becomes two… and you don’t even realize it. Such was the case with my annual trek to a lofty Wasatch summit to give my offering of booze and beer to Ullr, the Norse god … Continue reading
Big Mountain paired with New Belgium Red Hoptober
Big Mountain. The name suggests a massive massif, when it’s really just a small peak (8,472 feet) among much larger high points of the Wasatch. But while the mountain doesn’t quite live up to its name, the history of the … Continue reading

Circle All Peak paired with Bridgeport Hop Czar Imperial IPA
A small mountain meets a big beer. That’s the best way to describe the pairing of Circle All Peak with a bottle of Hop Czar Imperial IPA from Bridgeport Brewing. Both the mountain and the beer have sentimental value to … Continue reading
White Point paired with Prescott Brewing Ponderosa IPA

Temptation Ridge (White Pine) paired with Avery IPA

Little Water Peak paired with Crazy Mountain Amber Ale
