Silverback Pale Ale

This is my second beer from Wynkoop, and a much better one. I'm glad they decided to make a pale ale version of this charitable beer, since I don't think I'd drink the smokey porter one. This is a really nice beer, a nicely balanced pale ale that provides a good backdrop for the grains of paradise, a really unique-tasting spice that makes this a tasty beer. Plus, research shows that the spice reduces the rate of heart disease in the gorillas that make it a part of their diet. There's no research to show that it does the same in humans, but there's no research to show that it doesn't, either, so drink up for your heart!

Did I mention that this is a charitable beer? Fifty percent of the profits from this beer go to support the Mountain Gorilla Conservation Fund.

So, a tasty beer that saves gorillas and just might be good for your heart? Sign me up!
