March 26 we begin serving Malt Madness, a special brown ale brewed in honor of the 2012 NCAA Women’s Final Four taking place here in Denver, April 1-3.
This one-time-only beer also celebrates Wynkoop being chosen by the NCAA to serve as a home-away-from-home base for the team (and its fans) that wins the Raleigh, North Carolina regional of the 2012 women’s basketball tournament.
Malt Madness features a full-court press of caramel, toasted and roasted malt flavors in a fast-breaking, thirst-quenching brown beer. It's 4.8% ABV.
Our brewer Brad Landman created the recipe for this three pointer of a brown ale. A showcase of various malts, it was built with Rahr two-row base malt, Munich, Aromatic, Biscuit, Crystal and Chocolate Malts.
It’s gently hopped with Fuggles hops and is fermented with a British ale yeast.
Take a time out to travel down here and score a round or two of Malt Madness with us. (OK, no more puns.)
