Visited on a Thursday afternoon. The Bar is Colorado Rustic all wood and no pretense. Pleasant ambiance Gabriella y Rodrigo was playing on the stereo which lent a cool soundtrack to the proceedings. My friend and I split two samplers of all the available beers on tap. Very tasty beer, representing the state well. I was impressed with the prices and the selection of brews. They also offer a nice variety of merch. to commemorate your visit. Service was a little slow, but it speaks volumes about the place to see all the locals roll in around 5 for after work drinks. I really enjoyed it.

Visited on a Thursday night. The brewery was a nice place, another rustic looking place in Colorado with a nice little beer garden. We arrived late, so we only had time for a sampler or couple pints. The sampler was about the same as other places. The beers were all very tasty, and it was a worth the money. The service wasn’t the best, but maybe the bartender was just having a bad day. Worth a stop if you’re in Longmont, but maybe not for a specific trip to it.

Nice tasting room, decent sized bar and some tables. It was a bit difficult to find from the directions on the web site, but once we got there it was worth it. L/H OA impy stout on cask was a big plus!

Warm and friendly atmosphere. Tasting room is pretty spacious and is trimmed in rough-sawn wood and flagstone. 2 patios for the warmer months. Also has an alcove-like addition room that is a little quieter than the main bar. Has a Cask-conditioned hand-pump that rotates frequently (be sure to ask what’s available). Also has a Nitro tap which usually has milk stout (divine when on nitro) but rotates occasionally to Jackman’s (pale ale) and others as the brewers see fit. Can get a little crowded and loud on Friday afternoons. Definitely worth the trip if you’re in town. And if you live nearby, what are you waiting for? Brewery tours on Saturdays.

a little hard to get to as Boston street gets split. Nice bar and plenty of seating inside and out. Two patio’s and merchandise on display. Nice selection of beers. 12 on tap. Service is a little slow but worth it, only one person working. Definitely a must when in town.

Greaqt place. Fun but muted inside. Amazing and friendly service. Large selection. We must have sampled 10+ different beers. Wish it had food.

Excellent service. I did not even ask for a sample of a couple of things, just in quired about them is passing and was brought back a sample, which I thought was above and beyond. Nice store and a great little bar to visit. Exemplary service all the way around, with some great beers on tap. Very easy to find, lots of parking.

Visited this great little tap room on 4/13/06. The bartender was superiorly friendly and from Aviano, Italy (I won a free beer). They had some awesome beers on the taps, too. Definitely worth a visit.

Cozy little tasting room off the beaten path. Sometimes you can find a special tap offering that isn’t bottled or available elsewhere (like that "gueuze" a while back), but usually it’s just the typical Left Hand stuff. Only food is the free pretzels scattered around in bowls.

I liked this place. It was pretty empty when I was there on a Friday afternoon, me and another guy throwing back beers, but the bartender lady was very nice and helpful, seemed very knowledgable, and the brewer guys ambled back and forth from the bar to the back rooms. They had a hand pump of their imperial stout, which I wasn’t a fan of, but it’s nice that they’ve got something on cask. Good ambiance, pretty good beers, good service; good tap room.
