Mirror Twin Brewing: The Oregon Pale

When I saw Mirror Twin Brewing in Lexington released this beer, I HAD to get my hands on it. So on Tuesday, I drove from Northern Kentucky to Lexington to grab a 4-pack of The Oregon Pale.

The Oregon Pale is a play on the famous computer video game, The Oregon Trail. The game was created in the 70s, but was popular in the 90s and early 00s. There was nothing better than when you walked into computer class in grade school and you got to play The Oregon Trail all class. In case you’ve never heard of the game, it was meant to teach school children about the realities of 19th-century pioneer life on the Oregon Trail.

As a Pale Ale, this beer has the right balance of refreshing and crisp and hoppiness, which is why I love Pale Ales. You could easily crush all four 16oz cans, but I wanted to save this beer for as long as I can. No need to worry about dying of dysentery when it comes to The Oregon Pale.
