| BarrelRoller (10), , | | November 10, 2009 Chavez ravine please take note and bring a brewery to Dodger stadium. In the heart of Denver, a few blocks from Falling Rock. If you don’t want to drive or walk all over town this area should do you right. | | IrishBoy (65), Bakersfield, California | | September 27, 2009 I went with Steve from Valley Brewing during GABF. Food was a buffet and beers were in a plastic cup. Might be fun during a ballgame, but I had to go to the GABF session during gametime and leave before the next game. Value was great since it was free! | | michael-pollack (71), King of Prussia, Pennsylvania | | October 10, 2008 Lots of points for being in the ballpark, though it would be nice if they were open other than on game days. Nice indoor and outdoor seating. View of Coors Field field from within. Fair selection of maco stuff and their own. They do some great smoked and Pils style beers. Not cheap, but not expensive. | | BeerBelcher (130), Columbus, Ohio | | October 13, 2007 I admire the thinking behind the idea of placing your R&D brewery on display for the public to see in a location as prominent as Coors Field, as I think it probably adds some brewing credibility to the MolsonCoors brewing company. However, I wasn’t too impressed with the creativity behind the beers I had here, whose intent seemed to be fairly mass appeal. Perhaps more creativity and brewing risk-taking would be evident if this experimentation occurred behind closed doors...
The place was bright, clean, and modern. It was crowded when I visited (not during a gmae) with lots of baseball enthusiasm in Denver with the Rockies in the NLCS. Bartenders were extremely busy and hard-pressed to keep up with demand. I was eventually helped, and got to choose from about 15 beers on tap in three different parts of the bar. The beers I sampled were not bad, but seemed to be targeting inoffensiveness. If this is Coors’ attempt to put on a show of their craft beer credentials, I wasn’t impressed. If this is their attempt to go a little more upscale than Coors Light and showcase their presence in Colorado, than I think it is spot on. Not a bad place, and I would stop in again the next time I visit Breckenridge, Falling Rock, or Flying Dog, which are all extremely close. | | Dansting (114), Overland Park, Kansas | | June 27, 2007 Went before a Rockies game on a Wednesday night. Located in the rightfield section of Coors Field. Pretty cool looking place inside the stadium, although there aren’t any seats inside where you can see on-field action. They had five beers on tap, none that were either outstanding or offensive. Their Right Field Red was my personal favorite. They didn’t have waitstaff, but they did have plenty of great bartenders who gave us free samples before we chose our beers. They didn’t have any sample trays. There was a buffet to get food to eat, which smelled pretty good. Pretty cool that they had a brewery at the ballpark, but besides that, nothing too special. | | luiss (14), Elmsford, New York | | October 6, 2006 I went during GABF, they where nice enough to put out free food, and hand out samples of beer. I gave it a pretty high rating for selection not because its the best ever, but the best ive seen at any ballpark. I guess it makes up for the team. The salsa they had was really good and the ipa that was on tap could not have complimanted it any better. I would reccomend this place to anyone, before Yankee stadium. Go Mets! | | fly (191), austin, Tejas, | | October 2, 2006 Hear they’re often not open, so I’ll give them extra points for being open, serving all the free samples I wanted, and viewing Jason Alstrom’s legs being whiter than even mine. Excellent beers - they know their lagers here. | | 1FastSTi (90), Glendale, Wisconsin | | October 2, 2006 stopped in during their open house at GABF. chatted with DenverLogan. sampled a bit of beer. nice view of the inside of the stadium. lots of open spaces too. | | MIBRomeo (115), Wisconsin | | October 2, 2006 i went during GABF
well the place has a nice open layout lots of place to gather w/ friends, enough tv’s to let you know whats going on in the world of sports and enough coors to choke a horse.. well there beer reminds me of coors anyway. A small number of taps w/ not a lot of quality. DIdn’t try the food. | | Ernest (105), Boulder, Colorado | | May 7, 2006 If you don’t go during GABF, i.e. you go during a ballgame, here’s what to expect: you must buy a game ticket to even get in (though the cheapest are only $4), they don’t do samplers, they only serve in large plastic cups, they don’t serve one person more than two cups at a time, and they only have a few Sandlot beers available (3 on my visit). Rather different experience than what GABF-attenders described. I went during the Rockies-Astros game on May 7. The beers are pretty good, however, so in the end it was worth seeing what they could do beyond the lackluster Barmen Pils. Still, would not go back. Unless maybe during GABF to see how it compares. |
