Durga • Pink Boots Brew: Rye Pilsner • 5.5% • 16oz $7 / 8oz $5.5 / 4oz $3.5
Durga is one of the most powerful deities in Hinduism, often depicted in battle with many arms wielding different weapons and mounted on a lion or tiger. This warrior goddess is fierce yet serene, embodying peace, strength, protection, and represents the power of good to overcome and defeat evil. In celebration of International Women’s Day, the women of Rock Cut and Estes Park came together to brew this year’s Pink Boots Beer: a rye pilsner. Subtly floral with notes of white grape and pear, finishing with a hint of rye spice, this crisp beer celebrates the women in our lives who exhibit strength through love.

Hike to the summit of Flattop, then cross the saddle to Hallett Peak and you will be at the top of Tyndall Glacier, one of the last remaining glaciers in Rocky Mountain National Park.

Galactic Portal • Hazy IPA • 7.0% • 12oz $7 / 8oz $6 / 4oz $3.5

E.T. Fonio Home • Pale Ale – collab w/ Left Hand Brewing • 5.9% • 16oz $7 / 8oz $5.5 / 4oz $3.5
Using Collaboration Fest 2026 as an opportunity to experiment with new ingredients, we teamed with Left Hand Brewing to try out Fonio, an African heritage grain. This tiny, sand-like seed can surprisingly add fruit notes to a brew. We paired that with African Queen hops to showcase white grape and pear notes created from these warm climate ingredients. Those bright fruits blend with tangerine, raspberry, and floral aromatics over a silky, smooth texture to create a beer so good, you’ll be over the moon!
Empire Strikes Bitter • ESB – collab w/ Left Hand Brewing • 5.4% • 16oz $7 / 8oz $5.5 / 4oz $3.5
A short time ago, in a brewery kinda close by, the brewers of Rock Cut and Left Hand got together and decided to create some new beers for Collaboration Fest 2026. Empire Strikes Bitter starts as a classic ESB with notes of roasted cracker, almond, and subtle rose; and is elevated with a hint of citrus and pith from the addition of orange peel in the kettle. Bitter yet balanced, this is a beer that can be enjoyed by the light and dark side alike.
Tokaji Barrel CCY ‘26 • Tokaji Wine & Whisky Barrel-aged Triple Bock • 8oz $12 / 4oz $6
In Rocky Mountain National Park, if you hike Mt. Chapin, Mt. Chiquita, and then Ypsilon Mountain, you’ll complete the classic triple peak summit: CCY. This beer took a similar three-phased journey: Using a barrel that started as a Hungarian wine cask that then changed hands to Keeper’s Heart to age a blend of Irish whisky and American Rye; it eventually found its way to us. The result is a unique triple-bock featuring a complex aromatic profile of toffee, toast, and almond brittle, complemented by nuances of oak, vanilla, and white grape.
Paloma • Cocktail-inspired Citrus Lager w/ Agave • 12oz $14 / 8oz $10 / 4oz $6
A paloma is a refreshing tequila-based cocktail made with grapefruit and lime. The Rock Cut version is a blend of Snow Trace (our cold IPA), River Sluice (a dry-hopped citrus sour), and a little bit of agave. A balance of light, tart, bitter, and sweet, this cocktail-inspired beer is the perfect beverage for Cinco de Mayo, a spring day, or any celebration with friends.
Spring Ptarmigan ‘26 • Pale Sour w/ Chamomile, Coriander, & Kumquat • 12oz $14 / 8oz $10 / 4oz $6
Years in the making; this mixed-culture, barrel-fermented pale sour offers flavors that evoke the feeling of spring and new beginnings. Assertive acidity is balanced by a bouquet of florals and fruit, and though we only added chamomile flowers, coriander seeds, and kumquat puree, aromas of lemon, lime, pear, and medley of early season blossoms are all present. No matter the time of year, a sip of this delicious sour is sure to bring warmth to your day.
