As category context only, the Brewers Association guideline for New Zealand-Style Pale Ale describes an easy-drinking, refreshing pale ale with fruity hop character (tropical, passionfruit, cut grass, diesel), 4.0 to 6.0 percent ABV and 15 to 40 IBU. The listed strength fits the cited range; bitterness exceeds it.

Research Notes
Field pass 2026-10-13: The brewery's Toast menu explicitly describes Endless Groove as New Zealand-Style Pale Ale and supplies ABV, IBU and three hop varieties, despite the item's NZ-Syle IPA label. The separate West Coast version was excluded. The brewery's own beverages page timed out, so beer url remains empty.
The brewery site, glenwoodcanyon.com (named in a search result as the brewery's site), returned HTTP 403 to every request, so it could not be read and is left out of brewery url and sources.
A web search for the exact name returned only older directory listings (Brewbound, Colorado Brewery List) that do not mention this beer; the web search quota ran out before further searches, and Untappd search requires a login.
No 2026 medal announcement from the brewery was found.
Researched 2026-10-13.
Second pass 2026-10-13: Searches located brewery Toast listings for an Endless Groove New Zealand pale ale and a separate West Coast IPA. The New Zealand item pages repeatedly timed out when opened, so no figures or hops were accepted from their search snippets. All structured gaps remain.
Deep dive pass 2026-10-14: no brewery website is on file; no new source was found.
