Find Breweries, Wineries and Distilleries in Metropolitan Denver

Metropolitan Denver is the beating heart of Colorado’s craft beverage industry. The Denver metro — spanning Denver, Aurora, Lakewood, Arvada, Westminster, Thornton, Centennial, Englewood, and Littleton — is home to more craft producers per capita than almost any major American city, earning its reputation as one of the premier craft beer destinations in the world.

Denver’s River North Art District, known as RiNo, is ground zero for Colorado’s urban brewery movement — a neighborhood where converted warehouses have become destination taprooms drawing visitors from across the country. The historic neighborhoods of Capitol Hill, Highland, and Baker each host their own cluster of craft producers, from experimental sour beer specialists to small-batch whiskey distilleries and urban wineries sourcing fruit from Colorado’s Western Slope.

Denver hosts the Great American Beer Festival every fall, the largest and most prestigious craft beer competition in the United States, drawing thousands of breweries and hundreds of thousands of attendees. Surrounding suburbs including Golden — home to one of America’s most famous brewing operations — Lakewood, and Arvada add depth to the metro’s already extraordinary craft beverage landscape.
