About us

***We are an active group - We hope you will consider joining us for an event. *** Check our upcoming events for further information!

Curious what we are about? Read on!...

Do you like wrestling with meaningful questions? Do you like local brew? How about enjoying both at the same time? Denver Brew Theology (DBT) 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 moderators keeping the convo flowing over some delicious 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

    Curriculum: None this week

    As we started the summer, we had a night where you could bring a spiritual idea, question, practice, tension, or half-formed thought that’s been living in your head. It was so much fun, we decided to do it again!
    Bring something new, or a topic we didn't quite get to last time, and we'll spend some time dicussing them. We'll spend about 30 minutes per topic and have a couple 1 minute rounds. :)

    So let's drink beer, share stories, wrestle with ideas, share some laughs, and see where the conversation goes. No agenda to complete. No conclusions required (as if we've ever arrived at one!).

    As always, this meetup is less about arriving at perfect answers and more about creating a space for honest conversation, community, and reflection together. The goal is simple: good people, good drinks, and meaningful conversation.

    Join us this Thursday, even if its your first time joining - its going to be a fun night!
