The Boulder Beer Company is in Boulder, Colorado. This beer combines a brown ale with an IPA and is 6.8% ABV. It was first brewed for their 30th anniversary and is now a regular in their lineup.

The beer pours chestnut brown and dark copper with an orange-amber tint. There is a short head of light brown foam. The aroma is dark roasted malt, dark caramel, orange, mocha, with a touch of sweet, fragrant flowers. The taste follows the aromas with dark roasted malts and lots of orange. It has a fairly bitter finish.
