Visiting Denver for the First time need some recommendations!

[u/fire-vibes-1]

Hello! My partner and I are visiting Denver for the first time next week and wanted to explore some breweries, that we can walk around eat and try some fun beers! We both really like ciders, sours, stouts, light beers, but don’t love IPAs. What are some breweries you all recommend we go to that are of walking distance to one another that we could explore the city of Denver for the day as well! Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hit the Rino area and visit OMF and Beirstadt. Loads of other breweries in that area too that fit your tastes. The Highlands area is also another good area with Call To Arms and Emporium also worth a visit. Cerebral is a good one to visit but more IPA focused but they have the other styles you like.

Great suggestions here^ I loved brewery hopping in RiNo pre-having kids, it's an awesome time.

If you do find yourself in the Highlands, OP -

1) Hops and Pie is a restaurant option with a fantastic tap list and usually some local options in the styles you mentioned. 2) Cerebral is having their grand opening of their West Highland taproom near 32nd/Lowell next Friday, April 11!

If you’re gonna be in RiNo might as well hit up Odell. It’s just down from OMF.

Start at CtA, Emporium, pizza at Hops and pie, patio beer at Hogshead, walk to Joyride via Sloans for another patio beer.

Beirstadt

100% Bierstadt for lunch. Currywurst and jagerschnitzel on the menu. Some people like the slow pour pils, but I think Helles is a better drink.

Our Mutual Friend and Ratio might have some interesting beers. Odell is a little more conservative with their styles, lots of IPA variations (sorry!).

Edit: I'd do Ratio in the afternoon, then Our Mutual Friend / Pit Fiend BBQ for dinner. Then an early bed after beer and bbq.

Odells is right across the street from omf and has a wide variety of what youre looking for

Cohesion for Czech style lagers, nice spot to hang out. Cerebral has some great lagers as well. Trve brewing has some great sour/mixed culture beer.

RiNo: Odell, Ratio, Our Mutual Friend, Bierstadt. Food: Pit Fiend or expand the walk a bit to add places like Fish N Beer and Cart Driver

I'd recommend Tennyson St in Berkeley. There are 5 breweries within 3/4 mile from 46th to 38th plus another one a bit further down at 29th. It's also a nice neighborhood to walk around. Start at Call to Arms (probably the best of the bunch) and work your way south. Hogshead is a bit away from the others but has good cask ales.

Four Noses really does fairly well with all the styles they brew- which is most styles. They have good food trucks and would be a good stop!

If you’re near south Broadway I’d recommend hitting Baere walking to trve maybe hitting public offering if you get further south. Historians has one of the best tap lists in the city and I also enjoy novel strand. Enjoy
