Beer Advocate Magazine's 2007 Top 25

Beer Advocate's December edition boasts it's top 25 picks in many categories. Oskar Blues was named 3 times throughout the 2007 review edition. First of all we were named 8th in the list of America's top 25 breweries of the year.
They did a special grading of 2 of our beers. Ten Fidy was given an overall grade of "A" in the Russian Imperial Stout category. A grade of "A" from these fine folks is no small feat. They also graded our Gordon brew in the "Imperial or Double IPA" category.
Gordon is a tough beer to rate because it truly is a beer of it's own. It's tough to categorize, the hops immediately point to the DIPA but the copper color & malty smoothness blurr the lines of what family this beer truly belongs. All we know is it's damn tasty! Gordon received a "B+" from this group of serious beer fanatics. Props to those few special folks working L O N G hours in the OB brewery to ensure we all get the beer we crave. As the bike riding swings to the skis stick right here for a winter brewery pictorial tour. Hell, if your in the area why don't you just swing on in & ask, we'll take you out for your very own.

Cheers,
