Label Reads: "Mighty Arrow Pale Ale provides lots of pleasurable sniffs from Amarillo and Cascade hops with a fetching honey malt base. This is our brewed tribute to Arrow, Kim’s Aussie/Border Collie mix who ran (literally) New Belgium for 12 years. When she wasn’t patrolling the brewery grounds, she was famous for her office visits: She never met a tummy rub she didn’t like. Atta girl Arrow."

Handwritten notes: People need to shut the fuck up about their God-damn dogs. First there was this frickin' dog tribute beer. Now this. As a person with feline-only friends, I am offended. Can you imagine if I owned a brewery and made "Whiskers P. Meowington Imperial Porter"? I'd be laughed at and kicked in the backside. Anyways, this beer is a Pale Ale in the most contrived sense of the word. My socks remained firmly in place as I drank this, not having been "knocked off" by a Pale Ale in quite some time. The usual hoppy stuff at the get-go and a lingering bitter. Not bad. It's just that I've been wearing these socks for weeks, people. Somebody knock them off, please!
