GUBNA (oskar blues brewing company)
Gubna Imperial IPA is a top notch beer from the Oskar Blues Brewing Company out of Longmont, Colorado. Gubna comes in 4 packs of 12oz cans, occasionally specialty shops will sell them as singles, or really get lucky and find it on draft. You get what you pay for with this one; at over five dollars a can in some markets, delicious. This IPA doesn't disappoint at 10% ABV, it surprisingly drinkable. Enjoying this beer is a three part experience. The piney/floral bouquet is very pure, and sets you up for a clean experience on your tongue. The finish is what you expect out of a typical IPA but it's bitterness is mellow like a well aged ale.
I enjoy Oskar Blues take on craft beers. They are one of the original craft brewers to use cans. The stamp of the bottom of the can often has a fun message from your friendly canning line worker. They have a sweet GUBNA mechanics jacket by dickie's and lots of other fun things at www.oskarblues.com.
