(Denver, CO) – The latest from Wynkoop Brewing Co., courtesy of a Thursday email blast…

Our latest Even Smaller Batch canned good — Patty’s Chile Beer — is now heading to our Wynkoop beer accounts here in Colorado.

A longtime Wynkoop favorite, Patty’s Chile Beer is a unique golden ale with glorious green chile flavors and aromas, but no heat. Immensely flavorful, refreshing and quaffable, it’s a gourmet creation built with Marris Otter malts, British hops, and late additions of Anaheim peppers and smoked ancho peppers.

It’s also divinely quaffable at just 4.2% ABV.

One of our many pioneering Wynkoop beers, Patty’s history goes back to approximately 1990. The beer was a creation of our famed original brewer, Russell Schehrer, and it’s one of the craft beer movement’s first chile beers. (It might be the first chile beer in a can.)

It is also a 2006 Great American Beer Festival bronze medalist.

The beer was named in honor of Patricia Calhoun, the legendary founder and editor of Westword, D-town’s revered alternative weekly. She was the beer’s most loyal fan back when the beer was created and Westword’s offices were located across the street from our brewpub at 18th & Wynkoop streets.

Patty’s Chile Beer is now available (in limited supply) in fourpacks of cans that we hand-label and fill at our brewpub.
