Returned a couple weeks ago from Utah though only processed a few and
scanned one roll.
Had not been there in many moons and many towns were dry. A few
microbreweries have sprung up.
Found one brew of moderate note in my modest sample size:

Poured very dark, Italian roast like; deep, dark, mysterious. Redish
tones if held up to the light. Head was beige and about a fingers
breath and left some lacing.
Aroma is impressive with dark roasted malt, chocolate overtones, very
mellow. If scored by observation and olfaction only would be
exceptional.
Upon drinking, leaves an impression of being bit too light to the
palate for this style. Roasted malt, nuttiness, sliver of chocolate but
overall too thin. Still very enjoyable considering the other options.
Mitt's favorite brew I wonder?
The geologic formations were impressive and did get a few shots form
horseback even if it turned icy cold and snowed on us. On the way to
the B&B we drove through Hanksville and I had to be cajoled back into
the car. No one else really liked the town.
Here are the few others I got to--perhaps just do a quick slideshow.

Warming up back in New England, go figure, Mike
