In search of the perfect festival beer, our Boulder Beer brewers and Kyle Hollingsworth, keyboardist of The String Cheese Incident and an avid homebrewer, joined creative forces. Imagination and improvisation flowed freely, and Hoopla was born. Hoopla Pale Ale is dry-hopped with generous amounts of Glacier hops for a fruity, floral hop aroma and flavor that will have your taste buds dancing. 5.7% ABV

    Pours a pretty golden Amber with a thin eggshell head. Malty aroma has subtle fruit and hoppy hints. Flavor has a strong woody hop overtone, which the malty core supports quite well; a whisper of fruit sneaks through. Texture is fairly firm and fizzy, leaving a hoppy finish. Heed the hoopla and grab a crater!

    I had this beer in Ocean City, Maryland at the 4nd Street TapHouse. The ber was average. Decent hoppy flavor, decent malt backbone, however, pretty ordinary on the whole

    Sampled on 10/1/2012. This American Pale Ale pours a medium orange gold color from a 12oz can. Medium sized white foamy head with decent retention and nice lacing. The aroma is caramel, fruity and hoppy. A medium bodied American Pale Ale. The malts are fruity and sweet. The hops are citrusy and piney, with a touch of grapefruit. Nice carbonation. The bitterness seems to build in this beer. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is crisp and clean. Aftertaste is slightly bitter.

    A less maltier version of Dale's Pale Ale...maybe a tad hoppier though. Smooth feel with a pale yellow appearance. More of a summer brew. I still prefer Hazed and Infused over this.

    Pours a caramel color. Aroma is of piney hops. Taste is minty, bitter, lots of piney hops, a bit unbalanced. Feels medium bodied and overall is about an average beer.

    Undated can, new to Reno 3 weeks ago. Tasted and smelled medium fresh. Liked the fruity tropical aroma ad flavor going on, haylike backbone, light biscuit and caramel malt. Simple, tasty. Lower scores around the 50th percentile on rb...I thought it slightly above average and sessionable.
