Boulder, Colorado — Upslope Pale Ale has been awarded Best Pale Ale by Maxim Magazine. In its upcoming February issue, the magazine’s cover feature, “The 25 Best New Beers In America” highlights Upslope as Best Pale Ale among other “top new brews of our nation’s beer renaissance.”

After sampling hundreds of new American beers, Maxim writer, Mike Dawson, declared Upslope Pale Ale to be among … “the 25 tastiest, most life-affirming concoctions to hit the shelves recently.” Chosen as Best Pale Ale, Maxim’s review of Upslope goes on to say, “These guys opened shop in late 2008, and they already own our taste buds thanks to their pale. It’s the most palatable craft beer we’ve gulped in a while. Check the ingredients: ‘Snow melt, malt, Patagonian hops, yeast.’ We’re officially down with Upslope.”

Still feeling the rush of bringing home two bronze medals from the Great American Beer Festival in September, Upslope is thrilled to add Maxim’s recognition to the young brewery’s momentum. “We’re honored by Maxim’s distinction as Best Pale Ale and couldn’t be more pleased to be considered among the ranks of such breweries as Oskar Blues, New Belgium and Great Divide,” said Matt Cutter, Founder of Upslope.

Upslope Brewing Company, a new microbrewery located in Boulder, Colorado, taps into today’s on-the-go beer enthusiast’s active lifestyle by offering superior quality hand-crafted ales in cans. The teaming of fine ales in cans allows Upslope’s products to be fresh, mobile, and easily part of an active lifestyle. Shared with friends after a long mountain bike ride, enjoyed at the end of skinning up and skiing down a snowy trail, or ordered in a local pub, Upslope is a natural fit for the active beer consumer.

Upslope is pleased to join Maxim magazine in the challenge thrown down to its readers in its “Best New Beers in America” feature, “We dare you to take a slug and not smile!”
