Nice place with a pretty decent atmosphere. Service was great and the sampler options are sure to please just about anyone. Too bad the beer isn’t all that good.

DEcent enough place, the beer was also okay. I do like dogs, but after a couple of fights and constant barking, I did get a bit fed up of it!! Their beers were not too bold, but well drinkable. Worth a look if you are in town.

The tasting room reminds me of a college dorm. Beer quality is consistently poor. Prices are reasonable, happy hour discounts are frequent. I don’t go here often.

What a tasteful little tasting room. A huge amount of beer was available, at the very least 10, and the two I had were great. Billy’s Chiles may be the best pepper beer I’ve ever tasted. It was pretty quiet on my visit, so I perused the magazine rack of beer publications. I’d go back just to get more pepper beer. They carry some sandwiches now, but it doesn’t appear that they actually have a kitchen or anything like that. You can buy bottles to go from the cooler.

Beware of the opening times - the tasting room doesn’t open until 3 PM on weekdays. A very dark room makes it out for the tasting room - somewhat dull, but you can see the brewery thru a window. Not many patrons on a Friday afternoon between 3 and 5. 10 beers on draft, so for that matter a scoop. Very attentative and knowledgable service.

When I mentioned at a few other places that I was planning on visiting here, they looked at me like I was nuts. So I did not come here with high expectations. The good thing is that I was pleasantly surprised! The beers I tried were quite good, the bartender, who was also the owner, was very attentive, talked about his beers, brought us some peanuts to snack on and even offered to give us the recipe to his IPA when I mentioned how I liked it and would love to brew something similar. A little hard to find, but not far from Redstone.

Nice little tasting room with that comfortable feeling to it (couple of friendly dogs walking aroun). Friendly bar tender and a nice selection of beers on tap. You can also buy growlers, bombers and 12oz’ers.

Tiny place and on the Saturday eve I was there a band was taking up valuable real estate. Luckily there were tables outside, but that also meant sitting w/ smokers. Free peanuts for a hungry guy was nice touch in otherwise unremarkable place. Selection seemed limited, but I was also half asleep, so may be wrong on that call.

This brewpub is really close to Avery if you find yourself in north Boulder. Everything seemed to be made out of pine on the interior, creating a cool cabin type setting. Foosball table in the corner along with a handful of tables and a small bar, with additional seating outside. Decent beers on tap, including a whiskey aged Red and their award winning espresso stout. Northstar Imperial Porter wasn’t on tap, but I was able to cajole a bottle out of our waitress when I told her I came all the way from Indiana for the beer. Ray, the brewmaster, was nice enough to take me back into the brewey and show me the whiskey barrels he was using for the stout and red. Cool place and definitely worth the stop for a pint.

4/14/06: Apparently this place took over the old Oasis bottling plant. The hostess was nice enough, but the beers weren’t really that good. There were a couple good ones, but I’d put this towards the bottom of the Boulder beer priority list.
