Across The Sea
IPA
Cortez, CO
Billy Goat Hops Used:
Cascade
Across the Sea is a pretty unique beer as it is dry hopped entirely with Cascade hops, the fun part is that we blend 50% Billy Goat Cascades with 50% New Zealand Cascades. They play really nicely together and make for a truly unique all Cascade beer with notes of tropical fruit, tropical flowers, and a finishing note of pine.
We use Billy Goat hops in nearly all of our beers for at least the bittering hops and we frequently highlight their hops in the dry hop in hop forward beers. I love the character of Cascades grown in the high desert, it's a fun way to add a little local terroir to our beers!

13 IPA

Brrr
Cold IPA
Avalanche Brewing Co.
Silverton, CO
Billy Goat Hops Used:
Idaho Vista, Comet, Cashmere, and Sterling
Brrr Cold IPA is Avalanche Brewing's summer anthem! Tropical notes of Guava and Guanabana, melon, strawberries, and lemon-lime complement the light Pilsner malt bill. It’s not your ordinary India Pale Lager.

Classic American Pilsner
Pilsner

Billy Goat Hops Used:
Crystal
Modeled after American Pilsners of the 1800's this Pilsner has lot of flavor and Body. A subtle grainy malt/corn sweetness that's balanced by hops for a delicate dry finish.
Penny's Pale Ale
Pale Ale
Steamboat Springs, CO
Billy Goat Hops Used:
Columbus
Named after our sweet dog Penny, this pale ale is hopped with Simcoe and Columbus which pair nicely with notes of grapefruit, bubblegum, tropical fruits and dank resin. A bright, drinkable pale ale for all occasions! The Columbus from Billy Goat provides those nice dank resin notes and seems to accentuate the fruit notes from the Simcoe.

In 1988 we became the first brewpub in the southwest, and the second brewpub in Colorado since prohibition. In the decades that followed, Carver’s has become one of the most medaled breweries on the Western Slope, expanded to create Durango’s largest outdoor Beer Garden, and has donated over $600,000 to community organizations. Carver’s is one of the most-loved local institutions in Durango.
