Did you know that Denver is considered the ‘Napa Valley of Beer?’ The Denver Microbrewery Tour is gaining fans, and is even recommended on travel websites such as Trip Advisor. The reviews rate it a ‘must do’ while in Denver. To read them, click here:www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g33388-d1489205-Reviews-Denver_Microbrew_Tour-Denver_Colorado.html

The tour is mile and a half guided traipse through the lower downtown district, affectionately know to us as LODO. It includes stops at 4 breweries, interesting beer trivia and everything you wanted to know about beer. Samples are given at each brewery and if you make it to the end of the tour, you are rewarded with a pint (at one of the visited breweries).

The tour takes place Fridays and Saturdays, rain or shine, from 3pm to 5pm. Cost is $20 per person. Please bring your ID for proof of age. Tickets are available online.
