31 Best Craft Breweries near Highlands Ranch

“I visited the new Prost Brewing in Northglenn this past Sunday for an event my business partner and I hosted. We had the most fantastic experience! Not only are the drinks amazing (I highly recommend the tangerine seltzer and the espresso martini), food was delicious, atmosphere lively, but staff was friendly and super easy to work with as well. We really appreciated management working with us to host our event here! We will absolutely be back!!!“

“The staff are amazing here and the beer is fantastic! My husband enjoyed their beers and company for a couple hours while I was getting a tattoo next door at The White Lotus. I stopped in for a beer after my tattoo. We will definitely go back.“

“Best nachos and carrot cake! Cajun fish tacos are awesome, so are the chicken fried chicken and the hatch chile burger. I like that they have healthy options like the bowls, too.“

“Amazing Beer and BBQ“

“Public Offering has such a nice outdoor area, the beer was pretty good as well as the pear seltzer. I was honestly surprised it wasn't more busy when we went on Saturday afternoon. It's the perfect weekend activity especially when it's nice out“

“Top craft breweries in the Denver Metro.“

“Casual atmosphere, incredible brews, and kombucha for those preferring NA...hard to beat Sanitas Brewing!“

“Amazing service and awesome beer in a great location. I love checking out local breweries and this place did not disappoint. They have a lot of space and different types of seating (high or low tables, bar seating and some seats on patio outside. They’re also kid & dog-friendly, though dogs must stay on outdoor patio. The beer-tenders are super friendly and helped me find the beers I like there and are awesome to talk to. I have come here a handful of times since moving to Denver from Florida and I’m comfortable reading a book on my own, sitting at the bar and chatting with the beer-tenders or regulars (who are super friendly to newcomers), or watching a game on TV. It’s a Welcoming atmosphere and has a good selection of different beer styles (e.g., hazy and west coast IPA’s, blondes and wheat ales, jalapeño blonde ale, red ale, barrel aged stout, Sour, & limited editions). Plus several of their beers are gluten reduced and one of the beer-tenders who has celiacs says she and others with gluten intolerant folks are fine drinking them. It’s definitely become my new home brewery after living here just 5 weeks! They also have a bookshelf of board and card games you can play if you want to make it a game night!“

“Finally got a chance to visit this brewery, and it did not disappoint! The bar and seating are amazing, along with the large brewery. Lots of people enjoying the many high quality and great tasting beers. If you love craft beer you need to come here.“

“I came to Brewability & Pizzability with several of my colleagues from Therap Services after our National Conference last night. Food was awesome and the service was great. Thanks so much for hosting us!“

“Excellent Service and Atmosphere. If you need a place to get beers & food for those who have food allergies THIS IS THE PLACE TO GO CHECK OUT.“

“I tried their beer for the first time this past weekend, and I really enjoyed each of them. I also appreciated all of the gluten reduced options. I will keep that in mind when I'm traveling to Colorado with my wife.“

“I have never eaten at a hotel restaurant before, but a colleague and I decided to eat dinner here after arriving from the airport! I had a delicious Rueben sandwich with a side Caesar salad. Everything is reasonably priced. The service was great, too.

I was here at a conference that provided a few dinners, but not every day. I did room service one night, as I didn’t want to go out. It was quick and delicious. That time, I had the Bacon Cheddar Burger with fries.

I wish I would have tried it for breakfast.“

“Coal Mine Brewery is an absolute standout! As the owner of True Living Fitness, I visited to explore a potential referral exchange and ended up having a fantastic experience. The staff went above and beyond, treating me to a couple of free beers while we talked business, and I couldn’t help but notice how incredibly dog-friendly this place is. It’s not every day you find a spot where you can enjoy great craft beer, meet friendly locals, and bring your dog along to enjoy the fun. The relaxed, welcoming vibe here makes it a must-visit for anyone—whether you’re a beer lover, a dog owner, or both. Highly recommended for its top-notch brews and warm community feel. Cheers to Coal Mine Brewery! ?“

“We recently visited Downhill Brewing, and it was a fantastic experience! The welcoming atmosphere set the perfect tone for our Sunday.

A big thank you to Matty, whose exceptional service made our visit memorable. Thank you, Matty, for your wonderful service! We will definitely be back soon to enjoy more amazing brews at Downhill Brewing! Highly recommend!“

“Great local taproom with an excellent beer lineup, especially for those that dig the hazy IPA. The staff is personable and the vibe and soundtrack are chill e.g., Rebelution, Iration, Trevor Hall, Incubus, etc. If it’s still on tap when you stop in, the Scythe Harvest (pumpkin ale) is one of the best pumpkin beers we’ve had.“

“Great atmosphere and good beers“

“After a few years of saying, "We really need to try Lone Tree Brewing," we finally had a free afternoon and made it happen.

We had a good experience. We ordered 2 brews. One was the Pumpkin Ale, which had just the right balance of spices—not too overpowering. The other was the Nitro Cream Ale which was smooth, creamy, and oh-so-even better than expected!

One of the best things about Colorado is the endless stream of high-quality craft breweries. I love that places like this are locally owned and run. If you’re in the area, it’s definitely worth stopping in for at least one drink.

There are plenty of reviews with photos so I won’t bore with details. There is plenty of room inside and out to sit and the food trucks seem like a good option for food.

Moses agrees—high-quality brews are always worth the journey!“

“An absolute delight! The patio is a great hang, the stout was fabulous:)“

“Arta is the best experience for a moderately priced tequila I have ever tasted. Very smooth and an aroma that is exceptional!The Mexican restaurant I frequent very often is trying to order. I live in Sheridan Wyoming. We like good quality alcohol here!!! La Herradura, downtown Sheridan.“

“Love the Lithuanian Farmhouse Ale“

“This is our go to brewery while the kids are next door training. All staff here are amazing. We have been coming here for about a year now and have developed great relationships with John and Linzie! So happy we stumbled across Half Penny! ♥️“

“Great food, great beer, friendly efficient service. Would recommend! So many good food options, you gotta go super hungry and more than once. Such a wide variety of beer outings, too! Large patio with misters makes it enjoyable in any temp“

“Great beer even better food. The food is super fresh, delicious and served fast. The beer was excellent too. Only complaint is it wasn’t busy yet all the tables were dirty. I cleaned ours as did other patrons after cruising around looking for clean tables. The menus were dirty too. Otherwise 5 stars“

“Love this place! So friendly to groups.“

“Very relaxing. Great beer, food very good. Enjoyed the band!“

“I came to Brewability & Pizzability with several of my colleagues from Therap Services after our National Conference last night. Food was awesome and the service was great. Thanks so much for hosting us!“

“Very relaxing. Great beer, food very good. Enjoyed the band!“

“First time had lunch today. Excellent food and service exceptional. Will be back!!“

“What an awesome place! I’m so glad we found this place, we will definitely be back and sharing with friends. The owner & staff were all so nice & the food was awesome!“

“Excellent experience. I was expecting the standard bar first, food second brewpub restaurant. This definitely exceeded those expectations. I had a beer and the French dip with fries and both were excellent. I'll definitely be coming back.

Kid-friendliness: The atmosphere is a bit less kid friendly than you would expect at a brewery. This place presents more of a restaurant than a bar vibe.“
