I know that the Rio Grande & Sierra Blanca Brewing Company is not a Colorado brewery, but we love and appreciate our neighbors, right? My mommy and I have a tradition of getting away for a mother daughter weekend to Taos, NM once a year. Before our last trip I had been talking to someone about my love of micro-brew beers and was told that if I ever get to New Mexico that I need to try Alien Amber Ale, that it was similar to Fat Tire, and if you read my post 'Beer, It's a Love Story', then you already know that Fat Tire was my first (beer) love!
So, one night when we found a cute little place for dinner, with patio dining - I'm a sucker for patio dining - and I saw Alien Amber Ale on the drink menu, well obviously I had to try it!
I will say that I was pretty impressed with this brew and it was definitely similar to Fat Tire. It was a little bitterer (is that a word?) that my beloved Fat Tire, but is definitely something I would drink again and I regret not picking up a 6 pack or two before leaving New Mexico... oh well, maybe next trip. But if you ever find yourself in New Mexico looking for a tasty cerveza to try I suggest some Alien Amber Ale!
