Just like the Coors brewing operation, Harris Gray cranks out product deep in the heart of the Rockies. Actually Harris Gray and Coors are nowhere near the heart of the Rockies, unless the Rockies can live with its heart torn out and slapped on the concrete slab that is metropolitan Denver. (It cannot.) By all rights Coors and Harris Gray should only claim to be “inspired by the deep heart of the Rockies”, or perhaps “based on the spirit of the nearby heart of the Rockies.” The water for Coors’ beer travels under the mountains through a pipe (and then through a water treatment plant, hopefully). Harris Gray drives three hours in traffic to spend the weekend in a family cabin close to the Rocky Mountain National Park, where they sometimes get ideas.

There the similarities end. Coors uses that water to produce the same beer every time. Harris Gray takes those ideas and crafts different stories. So why even compare Harris Gray and Coors beer? Harris Gray much more resembles the many Colorado craft brewers, brewing something different all the time. But, those craft breweries are not deep in the heart of the Rockies.

Who is Harris Gray? Or is it more appropriate to ask who are Harris Gray, singular or plural? A two-bee hive mind? Something less than Sybil and more than Siamese twins. Call it two halves of the same brain…but only if left and right brain had gone their separate ways for a few years before hooking back up to the corpus callosum. What’s relevant here is that you’re dealing with a mind containing double the life experiences, double the power, 2X, which is not worth the money when buying a telescope but a definite two-fer when it comes to brains, a BOGO. Okay that’s slightly overselling it, the overlapping experiences require an adjustment, say 15%. A 1.85-fer then. Which doesn’t even account for the strength-in-numbers concept. So at this point all we can really say is, Harris Gray gives you (nearly) double the normal reading experience. And then some.
