That title makes me sound a little bit demanding, now doesn't it? Well, I can be, but that isn't the point of this blog. And yes I am posting twice in one day, because I am playing some serious catch up from my last month of not posting.
Now, I am a beer snob, not that there aren't some cheap beers that I enjoy (*cough, PBR, cough*), but I love, absolutely love a good micro-brew. Of course, this is Colorado, which is widely considered 'the Napa Valley of micro-brews' so of course I would love them. Anyway, a couple of weekends ago I went to Lafayette (near Boulder) to visit my BFF/partner in crime and of course do a little (or a little too much) boozin'. But among my list of MUST DO things was to visit Asher Brewing and have a Tree Hugger Organic Amber, yes, it is an organic brewery!
We first discovered this ridiculously amazing brew last summer at the Colorado Brewers Rendezvous, which has been one of the highlights of my summer every year that I have been able to go. This was (sadly) our last beer of the day at last years Brewers Rendezvous, but it was also our favorite, and this year will definitely be one of the, if not the first beers we have. Now, there was always a chance that maybe because it was the last beer in a day of a lot of drinking that it wasn't really as good as it seemed, but since going into the brewery sober, I can assure you that this is the best beer I have had (and that means a lot coming from me)! The BFF also tried (and from what I understand, loved) the Greenade Organic Double I.P.A, maybe sometime I can convince her to write a little review of that for you.
The brewery itself is a little bit tricky to find. It is located in a little industrial area, and since I wasn't driving when we went there I don't even have any little tips on how to get there. And it just so happens that this small town girl doesn't mind a quiet out of the way place to drink. We went a little late, but from what I understand they also have live music and local food trucks there selling food on Fridays. But if you are in Boulder (or the surrounding areas), even if you are looking for a place to stop on a road trip, and dare I say it, their beer is worth being the reason for the trip; this is definitely a place that you should do yourself a favor and visit, I promise that you won't regret it!

Sadly (or maybe it's good) when I was there I was so preoccupied by the beer that I neglected to take any pictures, so enjoy the logo from the Asher Brewing website.
