Exploring Denver’s Craft Beer Scene: Insights from a World Beer Cup Judge

This year, I had the incredible opportunity to serve as a judge at the prestigious World Beer Cup. During my time in Denver and nearby Louisville, Colorado (not to be confused with Kentucky), I made it a priority to explore as many local breweries as possible. The experience was both enlightening and enjoyable, allowing me to sample some of the finest brews the area has to offer.

I’ve created a video showcasing the various breweries I visited throughout my trip. I’m eager to hear your thoughts on these establishments! Here are a couple of questions to spark the discussion:

• Did I miss any must-visit breweries that should be on my radar for my next trip?
• For those who have recently visited these spots, how do you think they are currently holding up?

I’m not here to promote any specific brands, but rather to share my passion for craft beer and engage with fellow enthusiasts. Your input and recommendations would mean a lot, especially as I plan my next adventure in the craft beer scene. I’m always open to feedback, so please feel free to share your thoughts in the comments!
