    Hey all,

    Thought I'd take a moment to say hello to the Denver beer community as I'll be moving there from Boston for work in about two weeks. I have taken a few recruiting trips so of course hit up some great beer spots like Falling Rock and Mr. Bs. I was curious if there are any current share groups that meet on a semi-regular basis? Tried to do some research (admittedly pretty quickly at work) but thought I'd ask here. I'll be bringing some awesome New England beer with me and have buddies who will be sending regular care packages. Really looking forward to a few great years in Denver, heard its a great beer city.

    Cheers!

    Thank you! We signed a lease at an apartment in Riverfront Park, my company's office is at the other end of 16th St on Broadway. Pretty good proximity from what I can tell to the downtown area LoDo etc...

    Seems like a great city, plus being a native of San Diego itll be good to have access to Pliny again, one of my all time favorites!

    Bring all of the Trillium IPAs/DIPAs that you can. All of them. They're the best in the country, but i'm sure you know that!

    never had trillium, but might join the bandwagon of trading for it!

    I concur. I also trade CS for Trillium - Pot & Kettle was pretty tasty too...

    If there is enough interest I definitely wouldn't mind taking point on starting a share group, I was part of one in Boston and made some good friends and definitely drank a lot of great beer.

    I actually just went on today and "liked" the page on facebook. My name there is Rooster Silva (long story, dont ask). I'll be bringing some Heady and Hill Farmstead to Denver so definitely excited about a potential share!
