What we’re about

Some of my best conversations and connections have been made with craft beer in my hand. If this statement resonants with you, then this meetup is for you. We rotate visiting some of the best breweries and craft beer bars that Denver, Boulder, and surrounding areas have to offer. Come to network, make a friend, meet new connections, socialize, collaborate, and more...all while drinking great craft beer. Most events are formatted like a happy hour: late afternoon/early evening on a weeknight (Tues-Thur) and you pay for what you drink.

Gathering @ Upslope Brewing Company in Boulder, CO
Upslope Brewing Company, 1898 South Flatiron Court, Boulder, CO, US
Join us at Upslope Brewing Co. in Boulder, CO on Wednesday, January 14th. This brewery is one of my favorites - they have a wide variety of styles and all of them are good. They often have special barrel-aged beers. They partner with The Mighty Burger for tasty food, and they are even a B-corp! They were recently acquired by the behemoth Wilding Brands, so I wait with bated breath to hear more about Upslope's future. In the meantime, let's kick off our 2026 at a great place for great beer.

NOTE: They have several locations. We are going to be at their Flatiron Park location at 1898 S Flatiron Ct, Boulder, CO 80301.

Gathering @ SomePlace Else Brewery in Arvada, CO
SomePlace Else Brewery Arvada, 6425 W. 52ND AVE UNIT 6, ARVADA, co, US
Join us at SomePlace Else Brewery in Arvada, CO on Thursday, January 29th. Words kinda fail to describe this quirky place. Its industrial park location will have you thinking you are in the wrong spot. Inside there are lots of pinball and skeeball machines along with funky decor and other oddities. It is quite literally someplace else!

Gathering @ Renegade Brewing in Denver, CO
Renegade Brewery, 925 W 9th Ave, Denver, CO 80204, Denver, CO, US
Join us at Renegade Brewing in Denver, CO on Thursday, February 26th. I am super excited about this one. Renegade changed ownership in 2024 and they have been quietly building something great. Not only are they brewing their own incredible stuff, they have been curating one of the best guest tap lists in town. We head there during Stout Month, so we should be treated to some of the finest dark beers on the planet.
