Falling Rock Tap House
Denver, Colorado
Few brewers haven’t stepped inside this Denver icon. As the unofficial post-Great American Beer Festival hangout (when it’s stiflingly packed with encyclopedic beer brains), this chill joint is poised to sate savvy palates. Sixty taps and 80 bottles pour out some of the finest from the American West to Belgium, and the cask selection tops none.

Lady Falconburgh’s
Durango, Colorado
Boasting the largest beer selection in the Four Corners region, Lady Falconburgh’s continues to push excellent craft beer in the state that practically invented it (on this side of the world, anyway). It boasts 38 rotating taps that serve local craft like Left Hand Warrior and worldly favorites like Delirium Tremens. Come for a burger and $2 pint night, and enjoy an authentic Colorado beer bar experience.
