Deviant Dale’s IPA 8% ABV 85 IBU Northern Colorado is getting pounded with snow right now, with an expected 6-12 inches in 24 hours.

ABV: 5.2% IBU: 11
The unmistakable flavor of a Bavarian Wheat, but with a clear golden brilliance and a Sixpoint twist. An entirely unique canned offering for the sun-worshipping ale lovers. (courtesy of sixpoint.com)
