    Even with American Brew, they did 38 breweries in 40 days, and you could tell they were stressed by the end. The idea of the great brewery roadtrip is good. The logistics of the trip make it a bit messy.

    I hope the OP has a DD for this trip, otherwise, he may not get to see that many breweries from a cell.

    Hotels next to the breweries will be needed

    There are roughly 75 within an hour of Denver, although at least 10 of 'em are "chain" type spots like Rock Bottom, Ram, BJ's, etc.
    Still, hitting all of the unique spots would take a lot of work. The BA guys did a pretty admirable job over 3 days, though.
