Fri: Tommyknockers and Back Country Brewing. Mainly because they were on the way to Aspen. Tommyknockers, meh. Back Country had a great breakfast stout and IPA on tap. Imperial Saison, pass. But the rest of their stuff was pretty solid.
Sat: Aspen Brewing company, Freshcraft. Aspen was ok, nothing super impressive. Freshscraft was a great spot once back in Denver. Had probably the best beer of the trip there, Station 26 Imperial IPA. Was fantastic.
Sun: New Belgium Brewery, Big Beaver Brewing Co, Falling Rock Tap House. Ok, hands down the best brewery tour I've ever been on. New Belgium was awesome. Big Beaver, well we had stop there because of the name. Surprising thing? The beer was really good. We didn't have a whole lot of time as we needed to be back in time for the Bronco's game. Dinner at Elways, then bounced down to Falling Rock for the second half of the game. Beer selection was stellar. It was a little hazy by that point, I forget what I had after a stone enjoy by. But there was alot.
Mon: Breckenridge Brewing Craft, Great Divide, Jagged Brewing Company. Breckenridge was probably the most disappointing of the bunch. I mean, we get them out here, but i was looking for a little more than that, like something we couldn't get out here. I get that I wasn't at the actual brewery. I guess the vanilla porter on nitro was the best beer i had there. Great Divide was awesome. Their Collete and Ross beers were really good. I was most surprised that they distribute as far as they do with that small of an operation. Jagged Mountain was ok. Nothing really jumped out at us. Granted, this was the last stop of a very long day.
