50 Best Beer Bars in Denver

“The food and Chefs were amazing. The only thing I would say is that I wish they had more that one option for desert. My wife has a gluten allergy, and we were there for her birthday and could not have dessert. Other than that, we will go back again to try the other items on the menu that we did not get to try this time, as all of the for was delicious“

“Best burger I've had in a long while. Customer service rocked it out of the park!! I would even walk across Denver for those fries. Thanks Hopdoddy!!“

“We realized when we got there they were closing soon but host was super nice and welcoming and bar tender reassured us it was no big deal. Pizza was DELICIOUS, absolutely recommend this place. Good food with the nicest friendliest people that work there !!!!“

“Last night we went here and it was awesome! We opted to do the equivalent of the chef‘s table, and let them decide what to bring, and when. It was absolutely amazing and delicious! Definitely creative. The drinks were phenomenal as well. Our favorites were the Hamachi, the off the menu salmon, tartare, the mushroom Ramen soup and the foie gras. ❤️“

“Our favorite matcha in Denver!“

“The food is delicious and very good.“

“The bartender is great! Very friendly environment.“

“Great food and atmosphere“

“What a great brewery to hang out!“

“If you care about Belgian-style beer, Bruz is the best place in Colorado. Les Incompetents is a standout — layered, balanced, and the kind of beer that makes you slow down and pay attention instead of just drinking it—and reminds me of French dishes. The barrel-aged quad is the other one to chase: rich, warming, and complex without ever getting cloying. Both are worth going out of your way for.

The people are just as good as the beer. Kristin was clearly slammed the last time I was in and still managed to be gracious and on top of everything — no small feat. She and Carl (and the other staff, I would list them but I don’t. Know their names 😅 Yea) were also the ones who filled me in on the 10th anniversary, which I would have completely missed otherwise. That kind of hospitality is what turns a good taproom into a regular haunt.

I’ve been coming here often enough to say this with confidence: I have never had a bad food truck at Bruz. Not once. Whoever’s booking them deserves praise.

Congratulations on 10 years. Here’s to many more.“

“Pizza, Wings, Subs and now, Wraps! Great afternoon for Lunch on the patio!“

“Good beer & awesome service .... THATS WHATS UP!“

“Absolutely fantastic brewery. Some of the best beer in Denver with super cool staff. They also have options if you're lame and don't like beer 😉. All in all, a great experience that I'll be seeking out again soon!“

“My husband and I were looking for a night cap and found this hidden Gem! The host Lily was super sweet and our bartenders were super cool too. The drinks were good and the music matched our tastes. We will definitely hit this place up again for a night on the town.😉“

“great sours. worth the visit“

“To have a place to go within walking distance from my house is great! It’s dog friendly and the owners even kept a few items from the previous market! Will definitely be back and hope that they try and get some outdoor space and turn the volume up on the music! 🍻💙“

“We were treated like friends that have known each other for 20 years!“

“The staff is very nice and I didn't have to wait long at all for a beverage. The location also isn't too hard to get to (I biked from city park). The inside and outside have ample space. I also tried a majority of their menu and very much enjoyed every beer that I ordered. I will definitely be returning.“

“This was my first visit to Denver Colorado, and a friend, recommended this hotel. Ever since I walked through the doors, I have had nothing but top notch service and respect. The front desk manager Lauren B. has impeccable customer service. And I don't know how I got so lucky, she upgraded me to a Pent House Suite. The room is absolutely gorgeous with breathtaking views of the stadium and skyline.
Definitely recommend staying at The Rally Hotel!! You will be treated like royalty!!“

“So fun! Great venue for a date, party, or solo! Jenn and team are amazing!“

“Very Cool bar and good people“

“Great service! The staff were so friendly and their beer is excellent!! I’d highly recommend this place to anyone!“

“Four of us do a monthly dinner club and this place checked a lot of boxes! None of us drink so we're always thrilled when there's a solid selection of mocktails. Every drink we tried was delicious. We do 'family style' sharing of plates and got 4 small plates, 2 large plates, 2 sides, and 2 desserts. It was a tad too much food. Stand outs for me were the short rib, tuna, asparagus (great flavor though a little spicy for a few of us), and the brown butter caramel with the churros.“

“The smoked brisket had a nice bark and wasn't overloaded with sauce, which I appreciated. Mac and cheese was creamy and actually held its own next to the meat. Small dining room so it gets crowded when the rush starts, and conversations kind of blend together into one big wall of noise.“

“Edit: Business made it right a few days later, so bumping my review up to 4 stars assuming the bartender was having an off day.

Fun vibe and good pizza, unfortunately paired with the most incompetent bartender I’ve ever encountered in my 32 years on this planet. The guy who served us lost my credit card while changing a keg to fulfill our order, 3 minutes later he acts as if he has never seen us in his life. Claims he couldn’t possibly have my credit card because “they don’t keep cards” before finding it a few minutes later behind the bar.

Later on I ask to close out, he walks away for 20 seconds to check the POS, comes back and asks the person next to me who is a different gender, different hair color, and about a foot shorter than me “were you the one who just asked me to close out?” I wave him over and was asked to clarify my name and provide my card AGAIN, which must’ve then been used to open another tab unbeknownst to me. Now I’m leaving an unclosed tab at this bar with an extremely common last name. Lo and behold a couple days pass and clearly some randos (possibly with the same last name) must’ve charged drinks to our tab, since my wife and I ordered exactly 4 regular draft beers, but have $100+ in charges across multiple transactions from this unserious establishment“

“I recently moved away from Fort Collins so I am going through and leaving reviews for all of my favorite eats places. MCHC is god-tier! Their food is great and their support of local artists through their block party event is fantastic. I had the privilege of meeting their owner a few years back when I was driving for Lyft and got a ride request from him when he needed to go make sure their Prospect location was locked up properly after he received notification that a door was left open. he tipped me very generously and it was genuinely a fun ride. It never surprised me that the atmosphere of MCHC had the same fun appeal whenever I ate there. I am definitely gonna visit next time I am in Fort Collins!“

“Great Wisconsin spot. Attached to their sister property The Rhein House. Get there if possible 👍 nice beer selection, combination of Wisco dishes and German dishes👍“

“Bartender Brenna rules 🙌
This place is everything you could hope for!! The vibes. The atmosphere. The good energy. The dranks. The throwback music, movies, and games. But mostly the bartender Brenna- top notch guys. So fun, so helpful, maybe my new best friend I never knew I needed. Come enjoy your Friday night, or any night here!“

“Perfect Denver patio with great beer.“

“Spent an afternoon with friends enjoying a cabana. We had attentive and speedy service and our glasses were never empty. They offer a variety of cocktails (frozen drinks too!) and a much bigger menu than I expected. The pizzas were 10/10. Can’t wait to go back!“

“I stopped in Denver on my way to Iowa. My son loves wings so he looked up this place so that we could have lunch. We ordered wings and a cocktail. Both cocktails were refreshing! The wings were on point. I ordered the buffalo bleu, and can say that I have not had better flavor. I will keep this in my locations and revisit again next year. My son ate all 18 of his wings.“

“🎉Happy Cinco de Mayo 🇲🇽🇲🇽😋😋“

“We had a great time at Federales Denver. We enjoyed the great selection of tequilas delicious tacos and Margarita’s. The waitress was knowledgeable and pleasant. Fun environment for date night or friends groups to wind down and live!“

“What an awesome place enough said!“

“Food was excellent- larger portions than expected even for “small”

One server was so attentive- not ours, but maybe he was having an off day. Overall recommend but bring a hat if sitting outside- no decent shade at 6pm and inside was a little loud.“

“Fun atmosphere with plenty of big screens to watch sports. The food is excellent and the beer is even better!“

“This is one of my favorite places in Denver. Get the Froze - trust me. It will become your go to drink. The beet hummus is delicious. There isn't a great view of the mountains, but the atmosphere is still good. Service can sometimes be a bit slow, even when they are adequately staffed, but it's still a great scene and perfect place to bring out of town guests.“

“It is a very suitable plaza for the needs of the people and has a new restaurant called Sabor a Taste of México with authentic Mexican food and seafood and the sushi is delicious fresh, the people are very friendly and the atmosphere was fantastic 100% for this place“

“The best cheesesteak I've eaten in a while and i was skeptical.... but when i tell you the steak was real rib eye? You can't even get that sometimes in pa in certain spots, Here taproom has a whole ghost kitchen inside and it's called little Arthur's...i had the brownie also although it's pretty pricey in there it's worth it for the experience even if you only do it once... you'll make the money to come back... the beers are pretty good here too so all and all I'll be back i almost finished my half of my cheesesteak my son finnessed his half so know we will be back. Maybe we will get a frequent visitor foodie dish... it's nice being a mystery critic on delicious foods because then the chef does it right and doesn't worry abt making mistakes...top notch... I'll be back...i got exactly what i asked for in flavour“

“🎉Happy Cinco de Mayo 🇲🇽🇲🇽😋😋“

“This is a really good pizza. Understandably you will pay a little more than your usual discount pizza place, but the quality is far better. They also have specials and a frequent buyer program: 10 large pizzas basically gets you a free one.“

“the food was fabulous and the service was 5 star but the dining was to dark to read the menus and way to close to other seating also way to loud to where you couldn't hear your other person when they talked you would have to literally raise your voice.....first time there prolly wouldn't return“

“Seen a post on Facebook bout this place. Went for our wedding anniversary and it was very nice. Food and drinks were bomb food very fulfilling. Staff was great always checking on us. Definitely going back“

“Los mariscos son riquísimos. Super recomendados. Los tacos también super ricos. Les recomiendo este lugar.“

“Norma Jean was awesome, not only was she the bartender but she was the only employee working besides the cook, who also did an awesome job. Norma had a full bar of people and serviced everyone with a smile. She did an outstanding job running the whole bar! In fact because some customers saw that she working alone, got up and left. Awesome job Norma hope you get a hell of a good raise. In fact, she should be the Manager so that no other employee has to work like. This was Sunday, September 4th, 2022.“

“I love this place! A cool vibe and friendly staff. Drinks are great, and they offer dancing, games, and pool tables. They're always looking for new ways to appeal to their customers. It's definitely a must try if you haven't.“

“bangin sammys 🔥🔥🔥🔥 thick turkey - The Telluride“

“My experience in working with Sexy Pizza for a 150-person graduation party was the easiest thing I've done all year. They knew exactly the right amount of pizza we would need (literally, it was EXACT), took a last-minute request with ease, communicated so clearly, and delivered at exactly the time we needed the pizzas. Also - they are incredibly supportive of their neighborhood community, and we felt that through every interaction with their team. I HIGHLY recommend working with Sexy Pizza for your next event!“

“Best Moonpies in Denver! Ask for the Moon Pie Marshal and receive a free Moon Pie!“

“We recently hosted an event here and had a great experience! The private room is spacious, flexible and much more affordable than similar options in the area. The staff was super friendly and helpful, and everyone enjoyed the food and drinks. Definitely recommend!“
