Top 5 Breweries in Colorado

884 S Buckley Rd, Aurora, CO 80017, United States

“Great beer - a TON of choices! If you can't find a beer you like here, you probably don't like beer! Very neat "space" vibe, also a military service vibe (I think maybe it is owned by military veterans?). Either way, it was a very comfortable place to hang out. There were events going on many nights of the week (a drunken spelling bee, for instance!) and the service was great.”

2210 California St, Denver, CO 80205, United States

“We stopped in last week and were impressed with the beer quality and the awesome rustic décor (as well as the cool staff). Left with a six pack to bring back home. Plan to return next time we are in Denver!”

2920 Larimer St, Denver, CO 80205, United States

“Nice stop for some beer, lot’s of breweries in the area, this one should be on your list! Nice bar, seating areas indoor and out. I see the bar is dog friendly. Liked the few beers tried. Pretty hip stop - industrial type vibes. Would recommend stopping by! (Did not seem to be any food).”

127 E 5th St, Loveland, CO 80537, United States

“The beer is amazing. Everything from the pils, IPAs, the amber to the stouts. Especially the stouts. The chocolate imperial stout (pictured) is off the charts. Every time I come here it's great beer, music, and service. The staff is fantastic. The venue is nice as well. Overall: a great experience.”

2724 McClelland Dr #190, Fort Collins, CO 80525, United States

“Really great beer options! Loved the sours and the pet friendly side of things. Having the daily food truck is a nice touch. Already looking forward to returning. (Pictured is the passion fruit peach sour.)”

9150 Commerce Center Cir #300, Highlands Ranch, CO 80129, United States

”Excellent beer, dog friendly, chips, lots of seating, friendly service. The new brewery location opened a month ago and is very convenient to Highlands Ranch as well as Chatfield State Park. This is a working brewery so there are times you might hear brewing noises but I liked the atmosphere. You can buy beer to go, too.”

2501 Sheridan Boulevard, Edgewater, CO 80214, United States

”A group of 8 of us came here for Trivia on a Tuesday, and it was amazing. I don't drink beer, so I was bummed about that, but their seltzer "boozewater" was good, and the other 7 in our party loved the beer options. We ordered from the food truck outside, and the food was delicious. I was disappointed we got there an hour early, and it was slim pickings inside for seating together, but we did have a large party. We could have easily sat outside and played trivia since they have a TV with the questions for the tables outside but didnt realize it. This was the best trivia I have been to because of the picture clues and the option of the mystery box or round of drinks for EVERY round! The service was amazing!! They were running their butts off, ensuring everyone had drinks and were taken care of. Great staff, drinks, and trivia, can't go wrong! I got lucky and wore a Hawaiian type dress and got a special surprise! 🌺 we were able to park in the lot right next door since it was after 6 PM but I found a lot of parking on the streets in walking distance. *our mystery box prize featured in my pic! 🗺🕰*”

”Nice little brewery near Mile High Stadium, #LittleMachineBeer hit the spot for some nice cold pours. Great indoor and outdoor areas to sit and enjoy your thirst! Nicely filled selection of rotating flavors along with surely regularly offered brews here. A few light munchy snacks offered here as well as some non-alcoholic. Cold, friendly pours here by the staff. Loved the road-soda cans available too. Definitely a nice stop if you're in Denver, looking for a good local fresh brew!”

115 Pahlone Pkwy, Poncha Springs, CO 81242, United States

”I had a Tres Amigos in Alamosa from Rubi Slipper. My family and I thought we'd check out the brewery on our way back through Poncha Springs since I was headed that direction. Glad we did! Fantastic brewery with great beers (can always judge a brewery on their lagers like kolsch or pilsner and theirs is good->great), good IPAs, but their barrel aged dark beers are the real gems. Their recent oil man stout used ex bourbon and rye barrels from Laws Whiskey House who I am also a big fan of and live close to. Very good. My father in law loved their London porter which was also good. They had wine and some variety for those that want it, not a full bar though. Seems to have some great food that I'll have to check out when I'm back this way again for the Dunes another visit”

225 Girard St, Durango, CO 81303, United States

”This is a cool brewery up on the hill. They have a really nice patio setup. Kinda of cool they have isolated tables for dogs that might not be as friendly. The inside is sparse, but still nice. I had to try their Oktoberfest, which was …”

9719 W Coal Mine Ave A, Littleton, CO 80123, United States

”Fun place! Loved the patio 'park' for the pooches. Friendly server. Met some nice regulars at the bar, and the floor plan allows guests to see their beer making process in action. We enjoyed a flight of tasty beers. We would have stayed longer, but there was no food truck on site during our visit (it was an early afternoon trip on a weekday). But we will visit again.”

2355 W 29th Ave, Denver, CO 80211, United States

”Zuni Street Brewing is such a fun dog-friendly brewery in Denver! We stopped in on our way to Red Rocks to grab a quick drink and enjoy some time in the fresh air. They have a great selection of beers, cool plant-filled interior and not one but TWO spacious outdoor patios. We wanted to sit outside to enjoy the fresh air but it appeared to be dog-friendly inside as well, a huge win for days where the weather isn’t so great. I grabbed a flight and my husband a pint. The only downside was that the flight was predetermined, you couldn’t pick your own. It had some great options but I would have liked to build my own since I don’t like IPAs. It sounds like they regularly have food trucks so you can count on being able to grab some dinner while you’re there. Check their IG for details on trucks there that week.”

204 Mt View Ln #3, Colorado Springs, CO 80907, United States

”These lovely people. After all they have been through, delivered masses of t-shirt orders. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and best of wishes forever.”

18490 E 66th Ave, Denver, CO 80249, United States

”Nice, cozy brewery. They have some solid, beers, without getting too adventurous in their flavors. I spoke with the guy behind the bar and apparently, some of the beers are named after the dogs of some of the creators/staff, which is cute. Very kid friendly. There's a whole corner set up for kids, which I saw being enjoyed while I was there. They don't have a kitchen, but there was a Detroit Style Pizza truck outside, that was good.”

53 Centennial Blvd, Highlands Ranch, CO 80129, United States

”I love the set up with Ordering the Beer and Food! A lot of sitting everywhere inside and outside, The Beer is Fantastic! We were there for the Stein Hold contest! Awesome🍺🍺🍺! Great people even better Brewery! PROST!!!”
