Avalanche Ale was Breckenridge Brewery's first canned offering, its also the brewery's best selling brew. Recently the brewery announced that they will be releasing their Lucky U IPA in cans as well. I say the more the merrier. 

From the Breckenridge Brewery site:

"Subtlety. That's what makes our Avalanche amber ale such a treat. We blend pale and caramel malts – and just a kiss of bittering hops – to create a refreshing-but-flavorful, any-time beer. Aromas of pale grains, a semi-sweet middle and a clean-as-Colorado-snow finish make this our best-selling beer."

Here we go...

Pour - amber in color (thats a good thing) with some reddish hues and an inch of off-white head that fades relatively quickly.

Aroma - caramel, steeped grains, a little astringent as well as some very slight hints of grass or hay. 

Taste - malty, tangy with a little sweet citrus kick. Mainly caramel malt with a decent body but not too much depth as far as flavor goes. A little dry and sweet in the finish. Solid but nothing amazing.

Overall - straightforward and "subtle". This is a great session brew or a good candidate for a gathering. There is a reason this style sells so well. 

Would I buy more of it? - can I try some of the Lucky U IPA first and then decide? 

Note - Breckenridge Brewery began its life in 1990 when Richard Squire opened the Breckenridge Brewery & Pub in Breckenridge, Colorado. In 1992 a second location was opened in downtown Denver. Nowadays they also operate a BBQ joint in Denver as well as an Ale House in Grand Junction. Breckenridge beers are available in 25 states.
