FlyteCo Brewing

Airplane/air force/flight themed spot, just a block or two from all the other beer spots on Tennyson.

Fuselage of a jet is the centerpiece of the main room , smaller coffee and beer bars to the left as you enter.
Large out side seating area is always a plus for when the weather cooperates. Not the easiest area to park in especially during prime times..Street parking improves a lot a block or two away.

Friendly staff, pretty enjoyable music playing and they do have several TVs for when the game is on.

About a dozen of their own available on draft and a smaller fridge by the front door houses some tall cans in four packs to go.

Several style available, I had to try a pale ale on draft and some similar cans to go....decent, but not overly impressive was my impression of the beers. For food, It looked like it was just some bar pizzas. Meh.

Pleasant enough room, but not overly inspiring beer or food options.

Vibe here is amazing. Super laid back with a bit of a coffee shop feel, with people just sitting around doing work on computers and chatting with their neighbors. Seating is open with many options including bench style seating lining a fuselage of a fake plane body they fabricated. Super welcoming and unpretentious feel with brewing equipment in the main room and a nice open air semi industrial vibe, but in a nice neighborhood.

Quality of my hefeweizen was decent but not the best. Even for the style there was a strange funk on the aroma, and it seemed overfermented. Maltbill was tasty, but I want more sweetness from my hefes.

Service was very good despite not being a sit down restaurant style brewery. Again they took a card from the coffee shop playbook, and have you order everything at the bar (which doesn't have seating by the way) then if you got food you are handed a buzzer and your beer and about 5 minutes later, voila a sandwich. The bartender was also eager to help with any questions of the menu, and asked me if I had ever been in before, which I hadn't. For not having table service the employees are very willing to help and banter.

Selection was pretty nice with the traditional "Light, hoppy, belgian/wheat, and dark beers" with decent selection in each category as well as a kettle sour and a house hard seltzer.

There isn't currently a place to rate the food, but I submitted an update and will try to remember to add a number score later, but I ordered the Tennyson, a roast beef sandwich with horseradish sauce cheddar and standard sandwich veggies. The sandwich came wrapped in foil, like a coffee shop, but the roast beef was juicy and flavorful, and it tasted like the horseradish sauce mayhave been made in house. It was a bit salty, but again super juicy and tender. 3.75

 

 

it seems crazy that this neighborhood can support yet another brewery, they have so many already, not to mention some great beer bars, so it seems almost brazen to open another one here, but at the same time, its definitely become a destination, and they probably get plenty of foot traffic through here thanks to all the others too. either way, theyve done a great job with the space, playing on their airplane theme, there is an actual plane in the bar, pretty cool, and everything is new and bright, open feeling, breezy, well lit, and sort of mod looking, i was immediately comfortable and ready to relax when i walked in. i was impressed with the amount of beers they had on for being so new, maybe ten of them flowing, with all kinds of styles. i really liked their robust porter and guava pale, but was less impressed with the double ipa an the cream ale, both of which need some work. seems like a decent start beer wise though for a new operation, and definitely something to build on. im glad they were busy when i was in, they will need to be to afford such a large space i would think. the service was excellent, friendly and interested, just chatty enough, and liberal with the samples. i was a little skeptical going in here, but it definitely exceeded my expectations, and im sure the beer is only going to get better. go check them out, you are probably already in the neighborhood, the rest of denver is...

UPDATE April 2026: They have moved to a new location in northeast Denver, which is enormous and has tons of games and private rooms. It's totally different than the old place, which was a neighborhood tap room, and now they cater to large events and family games. They still have a big food menu so you can stay here all evening if you want. Lots of parking and a big space make this a good hangout.

This is a pretty new place in Denver, and I got there a little more than two months after it opened. As such, they're still tweaking some recipes, but that's fine; any new brewery will do that to improve their product. It's near a pretty busy area, so they get lots of foot traffic, and I hope they do well here. Nice people, cool atmosphere, pretty decent beer - sounds like a good place to me.
