Esteemed as the city's first brewpub, Wynkoop was founded in 1988 by a group including John Hickenlooper, who later became Colorado's governor and a U.S. Senator. This historic establishment helped pioneer the craft beer movement in Denver, transforming the city into a brewing powerhouse. Located in a classic 19th-century warehouse, Wynkoop brews a diverse range of beers, from traditional ales to experimental brews. The brewpub combines a rustic, historic ambiance with a lively, welcoming atmosphere, making it the perfect place to experience the roots of Denver's beer culture. As you enjoy their handcrafted beers, you're not just tasting a drink; you're savoring a piece of Denver's history.

6. The Daniels and Fisher Clock Tower, a historic and iconic landmark in Denver, stands as a proud reminder of the city's rich heritage. Originally part of the Daniels & Fisher department store, which was one of the largest retail establishments west of the Mississippi River, the tower was completed in 1910. This stunning example of Renaissance Revival architecture is most famous for its 16th-story observation deck, offering breathtaking panoramic views of the Rocky Mountains and the Denver skyline. The tower's intricate details, including its four giant clock faces, each measuring 16 feet in diameter, add to its architectural splendor. Having survived the demolition of the original department store in the 1970s, the Daniels and Fisher Clock Tower now stands as a solitary monument in the heart of downtown Denver. It's a popular spot for both locals and tourists, not only for its historical significance but also for the unique perspective it offers on the city.

7. At the heart of LoDo, our craft beer tour introduces you to the Oskar Blues Grill & Brew, an iconic Denver establishment that is much more than just a taproom. After undergoing a $2.5 million renovation, this 130-year-old building at Market and 16th Streets has been transformed into a vibrant blend of restaurant, full bar, and music venue. The design incorporates unique elements that are central to Oskar Blues ethos of beers and bikes: like a drumstick chandelier, a guitar pick-covered bar, a mesmerizing hologram-ish likeness of Hendrix, and tap-handle bike wheels. Oskar Blues Grill & Brew is more than a stop on our tour; it's a sensory journey that intertwines the flavors of innovative craft beers with the rhythms of Denver's music scene and culinary artistry, making it a must-visit destination in the city's brewery landscape.

About Denver

Denver, the Mile High City, is Colorado's capital on the plains at the foot of the Rocky Mountains, with museums, breweries and the Red Rocks amphitheatre.

Denver stands one mile above sea level on the high plains, with the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains filling the western horizon. It began as a gold-rush town in 1858 and grew with railways and mining. Union Station, a restored rail hall, anchors the lower downtown, and the Colorado State Capitol has a step on its west side marked as one mile above sea level.
