It Was Nice to See So Many Bikes Outside

I helped Kinsee put together a piece on the ride and the beer for KSUT Public Radio (ok, Kinsee did all the work, I just gave her the info on the ride, the beer and who to talk to). You can listen to that here.

Even after riding over 400 miles in 5 days Dave Thibodeau of Ska Brewing and Adam Avery of Avery Brewing were in great spirits hanging out and drinking some beer.

As for the beer itself, I thought it was great. I’ve said before that I’m not a huge hefewiezen fan, but Wheelsucker Wheat is easily drinkable and has more a bit more of a punch than your average wheat beer. It’s around 7% but not over powering at all, not too sweet nor too bitter, a great balanced beer. It’s on tap at Ska Brewing, Lady Falconburgh’s and available in 22oz bottles.

According to Dave and Adam this beer ride (or something similar) could become an annual event.

More pictures from the night are on my flickr.

Ska Wheelsucker Wheat Release Party

If you’re interested in finishing the ride with the brewers up to Ska Brewing meet at Buckley Park at 4:30.

Beer at 6512 has some more info about the beer. A lot of people are looking forward to this one, should be a great beer and fun party! Proceeds will benefit Safe Roads Coalition of  La Plata County.

UPDATE: I just talked to Dave and he said they’re probably going to get into Durango earlier than expected. If you want to ride in with them go by Buckley Park but don’t stick around too long as they might get there before 4:30. Just head on up to the brewery and enjoy the beer!
