    @Bentleyspop What beers should I seek out in Denver? Not sure if I’ll have time to hit the actual breweries, but if I’m at a bar out there, are there certain breweries I should look for on the beer list? Good hazy IPAs. Thanks in advance.

    Waaaaay too many to list plus options and availability change frequently.  Once you get to the Rockys there are many IPA options beyond hazy IPAs. For the best options go to Falling Rock Tap House and/or Freshcraft. Both are within walking distance of the Pepsi Center.
    Here are some suggestions that I'm sure others can add to....

    Comrade Brewing Superpower IPA
    Weldwerks Juicy Bits, Extra Extra Juicy Bits
    Crystal Spring Hudson
    Upslope Experimental if the 2020 variation is out.
    Station 26 Juicy Banger
    Cerebral Rare Trait

    ^ This is great. I’ll definitely stop by those two locations and will keep an eye out for those beers specifically. I like many IPAs, including west coast, so it doesn’t have to be hazy for me. Thanks for the recommendations.

    Was out in Denver in the fall and had a bunch of good beers.  Outer Range and Cerebral were both awesome breweries.  Outer Range had some really good hazy stuff.  And I second bentleypops suggestion for Weldwerks Juicy Bits...that's an awesome hazy IPA.
  • Tonight's selection....

    Freddie Murkury
    New England Style Imperial IPA 9.2% abv 
    From Mikkeller SD
    Mike Keller is NYC, not SD unless he has another brewery out there now?

    They put out good stuff too.

    Also I think the days of saturation of craft beers will be waning.  Breweries are starting to close here in NY so either they just weren't good or run poorly.

    Enjoy this while you can as the age of spiked seltzers is upon us.
    They are twin brothers 
    One has Eviltwin the other is Mikkeller SD...


    So I guess you can include Mike Keller NYC too.

    ^ Great beer. The brewery is in central IL. A couple hours away, but one that I get to visit on occasion.

    Cheers all. Stay safe. If you're in the UK try and get this direct from siren. It's great.

  • bbiggsbbiggs Posts: 6,950
    Cheers everyone.  Stay safe and healthy.  Important to try and support your local breweries, if possible (prioritize after health and safety of course).  I've done just that and will post a cheers pic this evening!

    Awesome! Congrats to you. Definitely looks like a great way to spend a quarantine.
