Skiing & Beer-Off 10Feb20 & 13Feb20

I made some more outings at Keystone while the weekdays have some soft snow. I was on my own on one occasion and out with the Schwab team on another. Along with skiing came some spa soaking and brew comparison. I tried several west coast hazies... they are a bit less hazy and more hoppy/bitter than NEIPAs. My friend dubl-D mentioned Modern Times was a favorite brewery in San Diego so I grabbed their Mythic Worlds, a new LaCumbre release called Terminally Chill, as well as a new Crooked Stave entry named Magnitude DDH, to get Colorado involved. I'd have to rate the Modern Times best, and it is good for a single hop. The Magnitude was next yet still a smidge "sweet" for this bake-off. Last and surprisingly not too good IMO is the LaCumbre. I'll have to acquire more of this style over time to really judge them better - I've had a few others but not many. Power to the hop.
