Initially born in Denver as a few batches of beer brewed in the garages of their founders, the Denver Beer Co. was eventually born from these folks' love and passion for creating premium artisan ales and lagers. With a desire to create a brewery to match the city's personality and lifestyle, Denver Beer Co. quickly became a local favorite. Not only are they dedicated to providing unique, high-quality brews, Denver Beer Co. also partners with non-profits, such as Casting for Recovery's Colorado chapter. Open every day to allow visitors to conveniently experience their hand-crafted ales, Denver Beer Co. has a variety of year-round brews and seasonal offerings, including their "Incredible Pedal" American IPA, as well as beers with French and Japanese flavor inspirations. In additional to their selection of brews on tap, they believe good beer should be able to be enjoyed everywhere—so their most popular beers are also available in cans to allow you to experience them on-the-go. Denver Beer Co. hosts regular events for visitors to look forward to, such as their annual crawfish boil. And for those with an appetite, the brewery also hosts a rotating selection of local food trucks with offerings to tempt all palates—whether you crave Italian, Mexican, or huge, delicious burgers.
