This is the twenty-fourth in a series of installments that will highlight one of my favorite brews and which knits to go with it! None of the breweries or yarn companies are compensating me – these are just my opinions on my personal experiences!
Brew: Bridal Veil Rye Pale Ale
Brewer: Telluride Brewing Co.
Malts: German Rye
Hops: Cascade, Magnum, Chinook, CTZ, Citra
Flavors: Very earthy and, almost creamy. This beer has a complex flavor profile with a tiny bit of spice at the end. Plenty of hops but easy enough to drink so that non-IPA fans would also enjoy it.
Knit Pairings: This beer would really highlight that cold-weather knitting you’ve been up to this time of year. Because it’s brewed in Telluride, CO at an altitude of 8750′ it’ll be a great match for hardy winter wear that’ll last a lifetime but is still pleasurable and simple to knit.
Notes: I hope you all had a wonderful Holiday and are enjoying plenty of knitting time as well!
