What we’re about
We are an active group - We hope you will consider joining us for an event. Curious what we are about? Read on!...
Do you like wrestling with meaningful questions? Do you like hopilicious local brew? How about enjoying both at the same time? Denver Brew Theology is a diverse community filled with a mosaic of amazing people across the religious/ nonreligious and interfaith spectrum. We hold organized weekly conversations at a local brewpub. DBT is a growing community that gathers around an eclectic table with rad moderators keeping the convo flowing over some brewtastic CO craft brew. We brew up some zesty topics and relevant questions ranging from Christianity to Atheism, Buddhism to Judaism, etc. along with kicking around conversations pertaining to science, philosophy, sex, gender, race, politics, socio-economic and justice-centric issues.
We are very open and honest - everything is on the table. If you're going to get bent out of shape if someone questions what you think, maybe this isn't the place for you. Some of the greatest theological conversations throughout history have happened at local pubs. Let's keep that tradition alive. We find that even in our disagreements and differing beliefs, DBT is a safe, ecumenical community that values one another. We find common ground in our shared humanity and are strangely yet remarkably unified by being together.
In addition to the weekly pub talk, we also publish a podcast - the Brew Theology Podcast - which is a microcosm of our weekly gatherings in half the time. We affirm all people, and everyone's voice truly matters. We simply ask that everyone be respectful, loving and gracious toward his or her fellow Denver Brew Theologian. We are the "home base" to #BrewTheology, an alliance/ network with chapters across the country (www.brewtheology.org). Denver as well. See ya at the pub soon.
Peace,
Janel and Rob

Password: brewJoin us this week as we explore Spirituality and Psychedelics. Psychedelics hold a very special place in accessing the spiritual, particularly in many indigenous practices. Over the last several decades, other people have practicied these expereinces and often talk of enlightening spiritual experiences as well. Meanwhile, the government often tries to suppress the use of psychedelics.
Meanwhile, research is showing that some psychedelics are useful in helping with mental health conditions and PTSD. In fact, the results are impressive. People with PTSD often find long term relief after controlled exposure to psychedelics.
One author, Michael Pollan, wrote This is Your Mind on Plants. He explores how we talk about and experience plants, how they impact our consciousness, and the cultural debate around their use. We'll take time to talk about accessing spirituality, how these drugs can be helpful, and how culture views them.
Join us for great beer and great conversation!
Hope to see you there!
