    Hi there. Floridian here looking to visit Denver and Ft Collins at the end of October. I welcome any suggestions for must visit breweries. If you have suggestions for killer food and bottle shops, I'll gladly accept those too! Thanks!

    In FC: Don't miss Odell & Funkwerks - very close to each other. Also New Belgium is right there and always has limited beers on tap. Zwei Brewing is great if you like lagers.

    Fort Collins Brewing is attached to a nice little rester...restar...restrun...eating place.

    Funkwerks is saison-only sytle. Odell has a nice, well-rounded portfolio. New Belgium is very big, but most of their beers can be found outside the tap room (although I'm discouraging going there).

    Denver has more options. Really depends on your plans, goal, travel means and where you'll be during your stay.

    Funkwerks has become more of a Belgian-style brewery, they offer plenty more than just saisons.

    Black Bottle, Equinox, Horse and Dragon and 1933 are worth checking out in Fort Collins as well. And check out Verboten in Loveland while you are at it.

    Wilbur's Total Beverage is one of the best Bottle Shops in Fort Collins.
