    Casey is at JK Liquors. Avery and OB is everywhere down there.

    Stop by Veterans, JK, Cheers, Coaltrain for the best options.

    JK may not have any Casey. Might just call them first. As previously mentioned, Coaltrain and Veterans are IMO the best options. JK does have a pretty decent mix-6 but it varies.

    For a good pour, Brewer's Republic is one of the only craft-themed taprooms. Or you could go to Trinity, Bristol, Great Storm, Red Leg, or one of the other 15 breweries in the city.

    Hope your friend was able to find some good stuff. I am assuming he's also a beer lover?

    Sorry to add on to this thread but I will be coming down to the Springs Nov 6th through the 8th. I've hit up the usual suspects but what are the new breweries to try that have been open in the past...let's say 3 years? Probably have time to hit up 3 so please let me know your favorites. Thanks in advance!

    Pikes Peak, Trinity, Great Storm, Nano 108. If you like fruit beers Rocky Mountain has a killer one called Da Yoopers, only left in cans.

    Sorry misunderstood your post maybe. Which have you been to?

    Might also try Phantom Canyon or Iron Bird as alternates as well...

    Phantom is about 3 blocks from Brewers Republic, FWIW.
