(Denver, CO) – Great Divide Brewing got approval for its latest new beer, approximately one week shy of its release. There is a release party for Great Divide Tripel and the already-available Great Divide Hoss on Friday, August 14th. Hoss is the brewery’s first-ever lager. [Side note: Beer Advocate Magazine’s Andy Crouch noted RateBeer’s lack of appreciation for lagers recently through observations of its top 100. Thoughts?]

Hoss is available in 6-packs while the 9.3% Tripel will be sold in bombers.
