Denver proudly boasts of an overwhelming 150 breweries in the city, but not all of the breweries are worth a visit. This guide will help you narrow down where to grab an afternoon beer, post up for the evening, or watch the sunrise (there is a specific bar for that). In addition, each location's happy hour and food options are noted with details about vegetarian options. This guide includes: ▻ Bars (📍5 ) ▻ Beer Gardens (📍5 ) ▻ Big Breweries (📍5 ) ▻ Dive Bars (📍5 ) ▻ Microbreweries (📍5 ) Please note: 1. All of the locations listed are for chill and upbeat outings. If you are looking for a rowdy night out, one of these might serve as your first stop but not the main event. 2. I limited each section to 5 locations. However, there are definitely many great establishments that did not make the cut, especially in the "Bar" category. There is a huge variety of excellent bars in Denver. If you are looking for something specific, I would be happy to give you additional recommendations at a discounted consultation price. 3. The $ and $$ describe the average price of a drink, not the food.

“The Napa Valley of Beer.” “The Munich of the West.” Comparisons are tricky, but there is no doubt that the Denver craft beer scene is legendary. It has been around longer than most, dating back to the Gold Rush when beer did not travel or store well: it had to be made on-site, on-demand. Home to the major Great American Beer Festival, the Mile High City has no shortage of brews to try — classic or experimental. You can easily plan an entire trip around only breweries… and hikes and fresh air… and more brews. It’s called balance.
