The Empourium Brewing Company

Another worth a visit brewery in this happening Denver neighborhood.

Sleek, modern, colorful room, with some outdoor seating options. On the corner of Tennyson and 42nd.

12 of their own on tap and cans to go from several refrigeration units. Multiple styles from hazy IPA, to west coast Ipa, lagers, stouts and the like. Not a ton of parking, but we found parking on the street was fairly easy when we visited.

No food here, except a few bar snacks.

Lots of additional options for food and quality beer all up and down this main drag.

Nice place to enjoy a few of their quality brews with a date or group.

 

 

this little tennyson strip is a microcosm of lager denver, growing at a shocking rate and honestly unrecognizable from as few as five years ago. i cant believe another couple of breweries have moved in up here, blows my mind really, but here we are. the location is about as good as it gets, and these guys should have a built in audience. the place is cool modern and funky, bright colors, some patio seating, a different kind of vibe from the classic colorado taproom, and the bar is rad, with some visibility to the brand new brew house there in the back all shiny and neat looking. cool energy in here, they did an awesome job with the space. their beer menu was kind of funky too, in a good way, each had its own art and there was a huge selection for how new they are. every beer i had, save maybe the brut ipa, was pretty good. nothing jumped out at me as too different or amazing in any real way, but we liked all the beers we had in here for the most part, and it seems like they are doing some pretty thoughtful beers with wide appeal, nothing wrong with that. thery had a number of hoppy ones that were all decent, a saison and a table beer that i thought were basic but nice, and a tasty blonde ale with coffee. i think they will do well here, the space is great, the beer is off to a good start, and the service was kind and welcoming. looking forward to watching their beer grow up a little bit, but its a nice addition to the neighborhood already.
