I love Avery beer. They have such big, bold eclectic flavors that make my tongue sing. Today was no exception. I tried the Tweak Bourbon Barrel Stout and found my new favorite beer! Food was also really good! Fried chicken Sammy and collard greens were delicious and wings were impressive! Place was way too loud but what do you expect from a tap room? Service was great despite the place being slammed! read more

Avery Brewing - Bourbon Barrel Tweak Stout...new favorite Beer!! - Breweries Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

I do my best to visit this brewery every time I find myself in Boulder, or somewhere nearby. Their beer has never disappointed and the food is pretty good too! Not too many vegetarian options, but a couple that are good enough. This place has definitely gotten more popular over the years, rightfully so, and they do take reservations, which I highly recommend if you plan on eating a proper meal here. Plenty of parking, outdoor seating for when the weather permits, and is an excellent spot to dog watch :) read more

Avery was on our list of breweries to try during our visit to Boulder. Pulling up to the facility, the building is massive and dwarfs you! There is plenty of lot and street parking so no worries there. There is a large open seating and patio space with astroturf that is dog friendly. Lots of people hanging out with their pups and enjy food and beer. You can go around to the front of the building and up the stairs for seating as well as downstairs. There is also a self guided brewery tour that you can go on. We didn't wait long to be seated upstairs, it took our server a little while to come around but it gave us time to figure out our flight of beer and food choices. We tried five beers- Raspberry Sour, Ginger Sour, Chai High, Raspberry Truffale, and Hazy IPA. The two sours were nice- plenty of flavor and a sour kick with a smooth finish. I wanted to like the Chai High, as the chai flavor was great but it seemed overpowered by the other flavors in the beer. The Hazy IPA had a citrus finish that we enjoyed. The Raspberry Truffale had strong notes of chocolate and raspberry but at 16.2 ABV, the alcohol content just made it too boozy. Moving on to food- we had the pretzel, the gumbo, and the Meat +3. The pretzel was a little overdone but still tasty and the cheese dip was delicious. I loved the gumbo with a side of cornbread. My hubby and I shared the Meat +3- it comes with a fennel coleslaw which was really interesting. The ribs were done perfectly, the brisket and pulled pork just average. Overall our food was good. There is a shop upstairs as well where you can buy plenty of glasses, clothing and other items. We grabbed a pint glass to add to our collection! read more

Always have a great time, great beer and great meal! The fish and chips, and brisket are real standouts!

During our weekend in Denver definitely the best meal we had. Stopped on our way back from Rocky Mountain National Park. Had to wait a bit for a table so we walked around the store and brewery. We both ordered the fried chicken sandwich and split a flight. Tried a few new things but preferred my old favorite El Gose and Liliko'i Kepolo. Loved the homemade (I think) ketchup and ranch dressing. read more

Delicious food, better beer, great independent and outdoor dining options. Super dog friendly too!

The food is always amazing and the service is fast and friendly. I highly recommend being a furry friend on warm days to sit outside.

Great food, great staff, great service, great environment! Love the Tues 5k group runs!

Personally this is my favorite brewery, they make the stampede beer which is important to celebrate the buffs! What an essential business! read more

Avery Brewing - Slurping a tasty Avery Ipa - Breweries Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

This place is an absolute must if you're looking for great food and a beer for every palate in the Boulder area. We came here on a Sunday early afternoon just as some people were finishing brunch and others were moving on to lunch. There's an awesome outdoor area with lots of tables, lawn games and an outdoor bar where you can get cans of beer. We settled inside at the bar, and although they don't offer flights of beers, they do have flight-sized pours which allow you to pick as many beers as you like and try them without ordering an entire flight. The whole reason I knew about Avery being from out of town is the great fruity and sour beers they have, so being able to try a diverse range and beers that don't often make it out of the tap room was awesome! The place can get pretty busy so I wouldn't recommend coming here on a tight schedule, but this is definitely a must-see when visiting! read more

Great food, joyful staff, nice atmosphere, and superb brews. Nothing else to ask for, will come again.

My favorite brewery of ALL TIME. During COVID: use their 'reserve ahead' seating feature on Yelp and get there when they open. Not many inside tables available, but a decent amount of outside barrel tables (maybe 15, and standing only) and a handful of outside seated tables. ALL require an RSVP, and they will serve both beer and food at barrels or tables. Plan ahead so your time will be spent drinking great beer instead of standing around waiting. Food was delicious as always and the beer can't be beat! Well done during these challenging times, Avery! read more

First of all - I love the White Rascal offering of beer. It's one of my long standing favorites. Visiting the brewery was a pilgrimage for me. The food was good. The servers knew all the details about each beer. Sampling the unique beers was beyond my expectations. read more

Amazing food and service! Loved the beer flight it's nice to be able to try a bunch of different beers.

Consistently amazing! Even though the draft list got smaller, there was some amazing stuff on it. Same with the food - cooked to perfection. Will be back any time we are in Fort Collins. read more

I came for a short trip to Denver and Boulder and many people had said i should stop by Avery Brewery. By far my favorite brewery I visited in Colorado! Really spacious, cool vibe, you can do your own self walking tour, and friendly staff. Definitely recommend this place! read more

Definitely a cool place to grab a beer. It's huge.....indoor downstairs, indoor upstairs, and my favorite, the outdoor patio. Huge selection of beer and reasonably priced. I had the crab cake sandwich with mash potatoes. The crab cake was excellent. Tons of crab chunks in the crab cake and you can actually taste the freshness of the crab. The mash potatoes were full of flavor. Creamy but not toooooo creamy, if that makes any sense. Service was good even though they were busy. Overall, a good place to grab a beer and enjoy some delicious food. You could definitely spend a whole afternoon there on a nice day doing some daytime boozing. read more

Great beer, delicious food, awesome service! To get all Dr. Who on y'all: It's bigger on the inside! When you enter through the first floor, you don't realize that there is an entirely different dining area and bar upstairs. The stairs towards the back lead up there! We ate upstairs. We were sat next to the window and the view was really pretty. Our server, Tyler, was seriously top-notch. His recommendations were fantastic. When we sat down, he gave us suggestions on what beers to order according to our tastes. When our food was about to arrive, he helped us pair beers with our meals. Tyler told us the chef was from Alabama and studied in New Orleans. It showed by the choices on the menu. A majority of the table had the Chicken and Biscuits. So tasty! Highly recommend it if it is still on the menu when you go. I had the BBQ Sammie with white cheddar mashers. Also very tasty! Overall, it was amazing food, beer, and service. 10/10 would go again! read more

Food marginal. Staff unwelcoming and pompous. Very clicque-ish place. You know the restaurants where you know if you were their friend or in the business they would treat you like gold but the non regular customer, You know the ones paying full price. Yeah them not so much. One waitress was so rude after we were rained on outside and ran inside as if she was doing us a favor giving us a table. W ruins I know talks about how rude the waitstaff is. It's a joke. read more

Great brewery experience. Food is very good and the beer is top notch. Great selection of brews on tap.

Great brewery and good food selection. They get busy so make a reservation if you can. Love coming here. Family friendly and allow dogs outside! read more

Outstanding service, knowledge and generosity! I happen to work at a brewery back east and was just here on vacation and wanted to visit as many breweries as possible. My friends told our server that I worked at a brewery, a few minutes later our server came over with free beers for us to drink, on the house. Very cool! We got wings and a jumbo pretzel. Both were outstanding, the wings were cooked to perfection and the bleu cheese dressing served with it tasted so good. THE BEER WAS INCREDIBLE!! Really great selection, and just tasted so good! read more

I love this place! Yes, it's a little out of the way, but it's so worth it. The huge interior and dog-friendly patio + incredible beer selection + food menu make it! I enjoyed all of the beers I tried, especially the Gorpe Diem and 2018 Finer Things. They have such a variety too! Definitely give this place a try. read more

Beer is great, the food...especially the brisket it's a miss. I was served an entire plate of fat.

I went to Avery Brewing on whim. I was with my significant other and one of my other friends back from Rocky Mountain National Park and our flight was delayed two times, which opened up an opportunity to stop in and check out this brewery. I have had their beer before in Illinois, but it is a whole new experience actually being in their brewery. And the experience was fantastic. Their brewery is large and I believe we were there on an early Sunday evening and the place was packed. We didn't have reservations and there was a wait. Luckily, we were all able to squeeze into the bar. We ordered some appetizers and of course beer. Their beer is really, really good. There is so much variety that it is hard to find one that doesn't appeal to you. The brew keeps were really attentive and were handing out samples to test as their tap list was one of the larger tap lists that I have seen. I am including a picture of one side of the menu. The other side was just as long. I really enjoyed the Sui Cochi, Mephistophele's Stout and the Island. I had a few small pours of a few of the others. I am sure many of these are seasonals. We wrapped up our two or so hours here during our Denver flight delay with a nice bread pudding. If I lived in Boulder, I would be here once a week or more. Service was excellent and I loved the variety of beers that were offered. Check this brewery out if you are in the area. read more

Good food, good beer, nice swag, long wait for a table, as expected. They don't take same day reservations so plan ahead. Walking through the brewing area was neat also. We ordered cheese plate, salads, pretzels, and a three ppl shared the giant meat platter thing but didn't quite finish it. read more

Wow! No wonder why Avery makes amazing beers! They take pride in everything they do! The building itself is beautiful. It's huge, ultra clean and modern while decorated in warmth and welcoming vibes. The food is delicious!!! The service was fantastic, too. Our server, Michelle, was really great and took good care of us. She hit it out-of-the-park with the beer recommendations! The beer is special. Everything we tried was so tasty! My favorite was the Rocky Mountain Olsen's. It's a stout made with malted milk balls. :D We were able to tour the facility (free with RSVP) and August, our tour guide, was extremely knowledgeable and entertaining. We loved learning about their brewing process and I gained a huge respect for this craft! I highly recommend making reservations for the restaurant an hour before the tour. The place was really busy when we went. Don't forget to bring some money for their gift shop! They had tons of great gear. Lots of free parking in the giant lot. Dog friendly patio, too! This place is awesome!!! read more

this is a really cool brewery and the beer selection was really good. The menu items are quite pricy though. I got the ramen with chicken and it was around $20. It was A LOT of ramen though. Came in a huge bowl. I couldn't eat it all so I had leftovers for the next day. The ginger is quite strong and almost overpowered everything but it was still quite good. Definitely get a flight of beers and try out different flavors but be ready to spend some $$$ here. read more

Stopped in after a casual hike of the Flatirons and their beer selection was awesome, but the BQBQ Platter really stole the show for our group. Plenty of outdoor seating, but we opted for indoors as it was hot out and we'd just finished exercising. Strongly advise checking in on yelp before you go, so you don't have to wait once you arrive! read more

I enjoy Avery's beers but I have mixed feelings about the visit I had here. First the building isn't fluid. You walk in the main entrance and there aren't any signs or a human to direct you. You can either turn to your left or go up the stairs to your right. Turns out either will take you to a tap/dining room. The patio is off to the side of the building and just outside the downstairs tap room. The spaces are open with plenty of room for a large group and it's also very loud. The atmosphere isn't much, just a bar with painted concrete walls really. The staff wasn't terrible but they didn't go out of their way to help visitors who have questions or have never been before. We had to approach someone to ask for help (after we walked past three employees who were watching us wander with the deer in headlights look). Once seated at a table downstairs, we ordered flights and food. The service was fine. The food was decent pub food. The beer, as always, was great. I enjoyed being able to sample a few beers that we don't have in our area, but that's the only highlight here. Otherwise this place would get 3 stars. read more

My first visit to the newer location. Very nice facility with food service. There is a gift shop that sells their beer, including the more rare bottles. You can also take a self guided tour. The beer: most of the standard beers are available for pours and growler fills. They also have rare beers and brewery only beers. I had tasters of two sours that were top notch. A little pricey, but I understand why as they were aged in cab barrels or several years old. The food: really good. my crew was happy with the quality. I split a sandwich and an order of duck fries. Yum! I could have eaten the whole sandwich but I had more beer tasting to do. The patio area was nice with an area for cornhole. Actually a real nice day for patio drinks considering it was December! read more

This was a great brewery to stop during a storm. . The service was extremely responsive as our beers seemed to show up while we were still ordering them at the table. The service staff was very knowledgeable of their products. We also had some food that turned out to be very tasty. The smoked wings and Ramen with pork was spot on with tremendous flavor. read more

Went to refuel after taking unexpected super difficult hike up to Royal Arch for 5 hours. As soon as we arrived we were seated promptly, and greeted by our server within 60 seconds of sitting down with much needed H2O. He took our beer and appetizer orders on his handheld device. Since he was friendly and hit up a conversation with my husband, das pretzel came out before he even walked away, shortly followed by the beer flight. My husband said his hamburger was good, but my BBQ Sammy hit the spot. I should mention we sat inside because we had been outside all day, but the outdoor patio had misters and looked delightful. All in all a perfect stop after hiking at Boulder Mountain Park, or any other day! read more

Fun brewery with award winning beer recognized across the country. Avery boasts a large indoor and outdoor seating selection along with a high quality food menu to choose from. The staff is also super friendly and knowledgeable about the beer selection. I would suggest getting small 2.5oz or 5oz orders of multiple beers so you can try as many as possible. I greatly enjoyed my time here and would recommend Avery to anyone looking for the full brewery experience. read more
