Here’s this week’s report:
Oh yeah, PtY is hitting starting this week. See Colorado Beer Man’s article: http://blogs.westword.com/cafesociety/2013/02/pliny_the_younger_returns_to_colorado.php
- The Bruery Sour in the Rye and Saison De Lente are now available all over the metro area.
- Elevation’s Senorita Imperial Horchata Porter is now hitting all over the metro area.
- New Belgium La Folie 2013 and Transatlantique Kriek are both showing up on shelves now. And, Cascara Quad has hit some stores too.
- Odells’ Amuste, a porter brewed with grape juice and aged in wine barrels, released Saturday, Feb 9th. It
should beIS hitting shelves this week. - River North is celebrating their 1st anniversary with a huge Imperial Stout. The 12.5% ABV brew will be available this Saturday, February 16th at 1pm during the brewery’s first-anniversary party. This will see store shelves, 120 cases were produced.
- Wynkoop Rocky Mountain Oyster Stout will hit by the end of …January?
- Firestone Walker Sucaba was released a couple weeks ago, it should hit Denver really soon yo!
- Word is that Bigfoot and the BA version should hit next week. Keep your fingers crossed.
- On the horizon:
- Word is out that Clown Shoes will start distributing to CO. (Check here and notice it says “Colorado- coming soon”) (UPDATE: They expect to be in CO sometime in the 1st quarter of 2013…)
- La Cumbre is supposed to be bringing their highly acclaimed Elevated IPA to CO very soon. GABF Gold? 97 on Beer Advocate? 100 on RateBeer!?!? Yes please! (UPDATE: The brewer is still scouting for quality distributors. They want to ensure that their beer is stored cold, as it should be. This could be days, weeks or months out…stay tuned.)
Look for more updates throughout the week (if there are any more to report). Please share any Denver area beer release news you might have with me either in the comments or on Twitter @ssteigerwald.

Any word out there about Barrel Aged Bigfoot? The brewery’s website shows bottles in Breckenridge and Dillon but none in Denver. I have tried contacting the brewery but have no response.
It will come at the same time as Bigfoot. Same issue, sitting at the distributor now, has been sitting there. Not sure of the holdup. Ridiculous.
I’m waiting for Elevation’s Seniorita. They said it should have been out last Sat. but I haven’t seen it around Boulder yet…
Have you checked Hazel’s? I heard it’s the onlly place in Boulder that got it. Mile High in Denver is the only place down here that got it.
Was at a Coors event Monday and the Sierra rep said the 30 cases of BA Bigfoot are going to be released the week of the 18th.
Thanks about the Bigfoot. It was just weird that there were bottles up in the high country but not down here. Also, Hazel’s had Senorita as well as the new 4 packs of First Cast and Little Mo’ ( the packs on sale for a $1 off as of last Friday).
Good news, thanks again Chris.
Keep in mind we’ve all been told things by many people that have been delayed further, but it seems this delay has gone on long enough. Just keep our fingers crossed and hope it pops up around town next week.
