Switchtrack Amber

It’s not every day an entire town moves. Not every decade either. But that’s what happened when in 1883 when the Berthoud train depot started getting demands from railroad managers. The officials said the depth of the Berthoud valley and the heavy weight of the loads made it difficult for the train to get out. But that wasn’t the only problem. After the train’s first two years running, engineers just up and went missing when they passed through town. Families were writing, employers were frustrated, but no one ever came forward with an explanation. Some say they vanished. But then, some say after seeing the beauty of the Berthoud valley, the engineers knew they’d never find anywhere that compared. And even after the tracks moved, along with the town, the problem continued. It was hard work moving the tracks, but it seems it’s even harder for people to leave.
It’s not every day an entire town moves, and it’s not every day that you come across a brew like our Switch Track Amber Ale. But a word of caution, just like the lure of the Berthoud valley, it’ll leave you wanting more.
