    I'm sure they'd be trying to find a new way to describe Chad more accurately if they had stepped foot into OMF for five seconds. Can someone do a map of Denver brewery stereotypes, please?

    One beer does not a brewery make...

    The Alchemist disagrees.
    Seriously, though - the 'Koop has been doing a pretty solid job since Andy Brown took over. While I'd personally recommend some other places in town as well, I'm not so sure that the 'Koop's vibe isn't the best.

    When I came here for the first time two years ago to interview for a job the three places that were must hits for me were Falling Rock, Great Divide and Wynkoop. The Koop has been doing it for a long time and has a good reputation.

    But the alchemist really only makes one beer, the koop does not. For me, GDBC should have had the nod in that article.

    I think this map needs...

    Wynkoop - An old guy in a Hawaiian shirt
    Great Divide - A fraternity brother wearing cargo shorts
    Dry Dock - Family stickers on a minivan
    Copper Kettle - Software engineer in flip flops
    Hogshead - Guy with a Baby Bjorn on
    Breckenridge - Tourist

    For Caution you'd have to show someone confusingly trying to find it on a map.

    Not even sure where to start with the B&B, although I still always think of the crazy old people that take the place over on Sunday afternoons.

    Ha ha. I've spent many a Sunday listening to big band music and hanging out with the local senior citizens.

    And an arrow point to Fort Collins with something simple like "good beer"

    Oh snap!

    Erik needs people like you and me to balance out those 75 "just a coke" orders with a 2% tip. I kid, I kid...but it's still quite the scene. Nothing like it at any other brewery in town, or probably anywhere.
