For last Saturday’s tasting, Wyatt’s Wet Goods held its first “Imperial Ale Challenge”, pitting perennial favorite Pliny the Elder against hometown hero Wibby’s Ted IPL, Melvin 2×4 Double Indian Pale Ale, and the well-respected Odell’s Myrcenary from Fort Collins.
The results may surprise you.
Despite its reputation, local favorite Wibby beat the cult of Pliny. Not bad for a very young beer from a very young brewery!
According to popular vote by blind tasters last Saturday, here are the results:
1.) Melvin 2×4, Alpine, Wyoming
2.) Odell Myrcenary, Fort Collins
3.) Wibby Ted IPL, Longmont, Colorado
4.) Pliny the Elder, Russian River Brewing Company, Santa Rosa, California
Congratulations to Melvin, and thanks to all who came to the tasting!
