The saints are marching in and setting up camp in Albuquerque liquor stores. Spotted at Kelly liquors on Wyoming was an entire shelf dedicated to Utah beers: Wasatch Devastator Double Bock, Polygamy Porter, and Summerbrau Lager, along with Squatters IPA and Hop Rising DIPA. I have had the 9% ABV Hop Rising a few times and it is a good DIPA, not quite world-class but pleasant and not too pricy at $9.99 a sixer. When I think of the Polygamy Porter, I don't think of the actual beer but rather the t-shirt, which is very popular for men who like to wear sandals and go grocery shopping. I can't explain this phenomenon, but men wearing this shirt in grocery stores outranks men wearing the shirt to beer fests by at least a 4 to 1 ratio. And I usually spot them at our local (John) Smiths stores. Hmmm. Don't wait for latter days; get these Utah beers at their freshest.
