Strange had the feel of a dorm room slash man cave turned brewery, but in a good way. Real laid back feel, tucked away in an area that felt off the beaten path. Beers were excellent across the board, and made the stop memorable.

This place is way bigger than it looks at first. With a beer garden out back that you access by walking through the brewhouse, and a cozy real beer drinker's vibe, tucked away in an industrial corner of downtown Denver. Nothing too lout and it feels a bit quirky in a good way.
Quality is good, but some of the experimental styles might not come out to their fullest potential, but then again they are experiments. The Norwegian Farmhouse ale came out a bit bland and sweet but the grains were crisp and defined and I do have to say the yeast was unique, just not all that strong.
The selection is actually awesome. They have a Berliner weisse served with fruit as is traditional in Berlin, as well as a smattering of IPAs, farmhouse ales, sours, and more that I didn't pay too much attention to as I wasn't there forultiple beers.
Service was alright, the bartender answered questions, but didn't offer tasters when asking the questions, and left it up to you to ask for a taster. He came off as busy and tired, not rude, but certainly not above and beyond.

This is a beer drinker's brewery. Come ready to try something new and unique. They favor IPA drinkers.

Not really close to anything except industry in Denver. Was worth the trek, and I'd probably go back, but drive or ride a bike this time. The beer were good, and the atmosphere was decent enough, but somewhat different than other breweries in the area.

divey little warehouse brewery - open garage door (even in the rain) with a permanent looking creep food cart on the other side.
Decent selection of brews - there's a laminated menu but there were also a few chalkboards with various other seasonal things. I sampled the DIPA and a cask IPA which were both pretty good. The pumpkin porter seasonal was pretty bad, though.
Interesting little place - they also had a bottled barleywine for sale, but there weren't enough indications that a purchase would be wise. Probably a 'skip' in the future, but worth checking out.
