Jay Simpson, our Brewmaster, concocted this recipe in celebration of his marriage during the summer of 2005. With tons of Columbus Bittering Hops and Chinook Hops for aroma, this is truly a beer drinker’s beer. Strong and Bitter, light in texture, it’s every hophead’s dream.

    Sampled at the pub. Pours an orange-copper color with a thin off-white head. Probably not massive in your face aggressive hops but this was nicely hopped, as were all of Blue Ridge's beers. The hops obviously were the main player and they were mostly grapefruit flavor. A long-lasting bitter, dry finish. Good beer. This and their Pale Ale were my two favorites.
