    I'm a big fan of their 750s, hope this one delivers as well!

    never seen anything but a 6 or 4 pak from these guys... solid brewery. by 750s i assume you mean 22s. NY is metric now?

    also --- i would drink this beer. but that is the worst label ever. not appetizing. fire bad.

    No 750ml cork n cage, bigger than your typical 22oz bomber.

    Drinking my first Uinta Labyrinth right now...

    As far as I know all Founder's Backstage releases are in 750 mls too. I concur that is one ugly label.

    750mL is approximately 25.4 US oz., and a standard size in the alcohol industry, so one commonly used in the US, even though it's not a US measurement. Most wines come in 750mL, as do many (if not all) spirits. Other commonly used liter sizes in the US: 375mL, 1 liter, 1.5L (wine "magnums"), 1.75L ("handles"), and 3L ("double magnums"). And, liquor minis are 50mL, while sparkling wines also come in 187mL bottles.

    Also known as the Jeroboam.
    The label isn't that bad Imo!

    I work in a liquor store.:wink:

    Never heard the term Jeroboam, though.

    This sounds interesting. Being from Salt Lake City (but not currently living there), Uinta is my favorite brewery in Utah. IMO, they make the best beers in Utah. They beat Epic, hands down.

    Unless Jesus is coming around turning water into delicious, delicious sour beers, leave the religious references out of my booze, please!

    Sounds like it could be good.

    Not that I've had all of what Utah has to offer (far from it) but Uinta does circles around Epic, which I really wanted to like them, but now that I've had a few of theirs, they're nothing worth bothering over.

    Too bad this is only in 750's, I doubt I'll even see it over here.

    Great beer....very under the radar.....Best $11 beer out there?

    I like the label...gold foil?

    dont know if I will like the smoked lager but if its $8 or less I will give it a shot.


    Enjoy

    I don't think that's gold foil. Just good shadow play.

    Saying it is a Rauchbier Smoked Lager is a bit redundant, isn't it?

    Will definitely give this a go if I find it, it sounds right up my alley. Also, I think the label (actually most of Uinta's labels) is great. They all have a very nostalgic feel that I find pretty appealing. I liked their summer lager when I tried it, high hopes for this one.

    VERY under the radar beer. We get Uinta in Ohio but Labyrinth is too high ABV for Ohio (12% and under). Would have never found this gem if I wasn't looking up trade options to receive from a BA in Vegas.

    Thanks Rizalini.

    I assume the "smoked lager" part is a subtitle, for those that don't know what a rauchbier is. Makes marketing a little easier.
