I thought I knew lagers... until I visited Cohesion Brewing Co. and learned what a Czech-style lager is really about. Here's the deal: At Cohesion, foam is the main character. Like coffee drinks, Czech lagers come in different styles depending on the foam-to-beer ratio -- and it seriously changes the entire experience. Hladinka: creamy head, 20-25% foam Šnyt: half beer, half foam Mlíko: almost entirely foam (yes, it's called "milk" and yes, it's delightful) Owners Eric & Lisa Larkin fell in love with Czech brewing while traveling, and now they're pouring some of the most unique lagers you'll find in Denver. Between the perfect patio, cozy indoor space, and beer that'll totally change your perception of what a "light lager" can be -- you're definitely staying for more than one.

Great Czech style beers. All the beers are on a Czech side pull tap (Lukr faucet). The bartender was super friendly and helped me navigate some choices. I had a milk pour. Just like the Czech Republic. They have stickers and merch. Outdoor seating. It is in a bit of an industrial area. Close enough downtown by scooter or Uber though. If you like traditional Czech beer, this is your place.

Bright, spacious and clean taproom. They specialize in Czech style Lagers. They had 6 beers on tap and we tried all 6. The bar staff ladies were super friendly ! A unique brewery with some solid beers. Cheers!

New favorite brewery in Denver!! Lots of parking with an indoor and outdoor warehouse spaces they specialize in Czech beers. You can get 3 different points with different amounts of foam. All of their beers are crisp and super refreshing lots of seating inside and outside. Perfect for families, kids or a casual weekend afternoon. There's also a yummy pizza food truck near by. Lots of parking as well! Get the foam milk to try if you can.

Pale ale - yummy!!!

Great location and excellent beers, but the only thing I would say is that the service seemed very lackadaisical. The patio was cool though and I appreciate the horizontal lagertons. The product names are also creative! Overall, I enjoyed it!

Another lager brewery that I had been wanting to check out for a very, very long time was Cohesion Brewing. They focus on Czech style lagers with beautiful taps and even more beautiful beers. I wanted to try as many of their beers as I could, so I got a flight. Which, to be fair, is a very poor representation of the beer as I think it deserves to be poured into a full glass with a nice head of foam, but I gave into my desire to taste all their delectable beverages. Cohesion 10°: A Czech Pale Lager that is single decocted with just a nice light hop flavor and a kiss of malt sweetness. Cohesion 8°: A Czech Pale Lager double decocted with Sládek and Saaz hops and late additions of Sládek. Bright with light citrus notes and a backbone of cracker malt flavors. Group Project: Landbier: A Czech Lager brewed in collaboration with Halfway Crooks, Olfactory, and Cerebral. Hopped with Saaz, Hallertau Mittelfruh, and Perle. Cohesion 12º: A Czech Pale Lager triple decocted and hopped with traditional Czech hops. Herbal and bitter with some light sweet malt character. Cohesion Tmavé 14º: A Czech Dark Lager double decocted with rich flavors of chocolate and molasses. Černá Ovce: A Czech Dark Lager brewed in collaboration with Halfway Crooks Brewing. Coffee and roasted notes. Some dark cacao as well hitting the palate _____________

Cute brewery with nice outdoor patio!! Enjoyed the different beer options. Surprised to see a brewery where they actually have tasty foam that they want you to try as part of the beer drinking experience.

The awesome Černý Les Lager!

I ducked into Cohesion Brewing Company, eager to take out as many Denver breweries as I possibly could while visiting and I enjoyed my stop here. I got the Černý Les which was a lager. I was doing a string of this beer type at many of the breweries I was going to while in my trip. Not really any good reason other than when it's warmer outside I like to drink lighter beers and lagers is one of my favorite beer types. Flavor features with this lager is a malty, grassy flavors with a crisp snap to it. Refreshing and enjoyable I am glad I made a quick stop at Cohesion to experience one of their beers!

Delish Czech lagers, pair quite nicely with a sunny patio day in December! I'll be back for the Hot wax & Hladinka event

While visiting Denver, I knew I had to check out all the breweries I possibly could - it's my thing. My boyfriend and I swung by Cohesion after looking to see how far of a walk it was to all the others. We were not disappointed. It's tucked away way back into a warehouse, so it wasn't too busy when we arrived. The two ladies at the bar were very friendly and explained the beers and the different foam levels. We ended on a flight so we could try them all! Every beer was crisp and spot on to every style as described. We really enjoyed the cozy atmosphere and tidiness of the place and how different it was from some of the other breweries we have been too. Worth checking out and some cute merchandise!

Went here on 11/10/24. Brought a few friends who have never been. A lot of tables. Good size inside and patio. They had 5 of their own beers and a few guest taps I believe. Their beer is great. The Half Dark (Amber) was really good. Fun atmosphere. Bartenders were are very friendly. Definitely an experience with their beers. Multiple ways you can order. Cheers!

Brendan S.

Absolutely delicious beers. I love Czech style beers and they did not disappoint. The brewery had indoor and outdoor seating which was a nice option as it was sunny but windy when we were there. The staff was super helpful and the brewery space was nicely done. I hope to get back to Denver and have more of their beers.

Seriously! You need to Czech this place out! Such a unique place serving up Czech style beers. Don't worry about pronouncing the beers, the have a Czech pronunciation guide. Černý Les is a light golden beer. My favorite! Their beers range from 3.7% to 5.8% ABV. The bar has beautiful aquamarine subway tile. Service at the bar is friendly and they are happy to serve you a giant mug of beer with foamy head. Just like a Czech beer is supposed to be.

That was back when the audience was maybe a third to a half full. Now it is often standing room only. So, I don't go. But the other night, I was heading down and wanted to grab some food and a beer before I kept going on over to other breweries in the neighborhood. I ordered the OG. That is under DAS hoagies. It has schnitzel, bier mustard, arugula, pickled onion, tomato, Parmesan, and Helles vinaigrette. I thought it was pretty good. I'm not sure I would order it again. The beers, of course, were excellent.

It's truly a…read moreunique concept housed in a gigantic building with multiple areas to drink, eat, play, and more. Bierstadt is a lager only brewery. They only have a few beers on the menu! Of course there are variations like a Michelada, house cocktails, wines, NA options, etc. The difference between producing lagers and ales is MASSIVE, and I tip my cap to everyone involved in crafting beers that have put Denver on the map. The Slow Pour Pils is one of three beers that I would consider the unofficial beer of Denver. It takes five minutes to pour, is served in a custom made glass (really cool story behind this), and has the perfect floating foam (like a cloud) sitting perfectly atop the beer. I crushed two of their Italian Pilsners yesterday. This is simply a fantastic beer. The Helles and Dunkel surely are not to be missed. But do one thing, get their Oktoberfest when it comes out (usually around mid September). It's one of the best I've ever had. There's a lot of stories inside this building. The legendary pieces of equipment, the unique brewing methods, the different spaces to hang out, etc. There's a reason Bierstadt has been tapped as the brewery "where the brewers go." To me, they can never receive a higher compliment. I'm really glad they're still kicking after celebrating their 10th anniversary. Almost a teenager!!! It's always fun visiting this place. This is a Denver must when it comes to breweries. You might not summit a 14er at this particular Bierstadt, but you'll find some of the best traditionally brewed beers in the country.

We did check out the nearby BBQ but you can read more about that on its own review. OMF has been opened for almost 14 years and the quality of their beer we tried showed they know what they are doing and why they've been open for so long. On tap they had a good variety of beers during our visit. My wife had Super Blue which was their 7% blueberry sour. I had Odette which was their 6% foeder-fermented mix culture saison. I had asked the bartender his favorite beer and he suggested that one. Both beers were solid. Being to so many breweries I will say despite some unique decor/touches they did lack something over the top memorable compared to some others. Solid beers with the option of some tasty BBQ available nearby. A brewery worth checking out for beer lovers!

However, now that I am coming here more often, usually to kill some time before a comedy show at the denver Comedy underground next-door, my experiences have been pretty dang positive. The beer tenders they have working here are just good people. They run the gamut from men to women? to different levels of energy and everything else, but they are uniformly helpful, interesting, and nice. I think this is why they deserve that extra, fifth star. I'm not a hophead, but I feel like I can always find a couple or more choices here that fit my wheelhouse of lighter beers, or fruity ales, or just something really interesting (like a sour). I also appreciate that. They always have a couple cocktails and a slushy or two to be had here. It's a great space. I'm glad it has been around as long as it has.

We were greeted and served by the bartender Junebug and although it seemed like he was the only staff, he was friendly and attentive with us and all the patrons. The beer was great, there were so many great options to choose from and so we had some of the IPAs, lagers and ales. Staying true to the name, the decor has a woodsy feel and the handles are made of various wood shapes. It was nice to see that they also offer some mixed drink options, margaritas, and a slushy option. There were some salty snacks available for purchase which was also a nice option to have. Happy Hour M-F 3-6pm with $5 pints. The place and restrooms were clean (two singles), there were some canned beers and merch items available for purchase, an outdoor patio and plenty of street parking. Overall the service and place were great! Some things to mention, having the live band was great and the place is dog and kid friendly which are also a nice option to have at any venue. But the volume of the jazz band was just a bit too loud for the space and together with the many small kids playing and running around took away from this being a relaxing day. Nonetheless, the bartender Junebug made it an overall enjoyable evening after the kids left and we closed off the evening with another great brewery find that we'll be sure to visit again.

Staff let us sit with everything, which was greatly appreciated. I've said it before: I don't know beer terminology. Good beer or bad beer. Those are the departments. Black Shirt serves good beer. You can tell me about the hops, but understand I'm nodding with absolutely no care or credentials. The garlic bread was great. Comes in little pull-apart pieces across the whole thing, so you can keep telling yourself you're having "one more piece" while dismantling a whole loaf. Excellent engineering. Terrible oversight on my part. Pizza was great too. They let us split it and even offered my wife a different protein. Little accommodations like that make a difference. We arrived with enough luggage to suggest a custody dispute, and they were still finding ways to improve our afternoon. The atmosphere was pretty mellow when we went on a Sunday afternoon. I'd imagine it picks up at night, but we enjoyed it as it was. Good beer, great food, accommodating staff. Highly recommend, especially if you've just landed and need someone to feed you while you sit surrounded by every possession you decided required its own outfit.

I'm not sure if I would have ended up here had I not been taking the bus; however, BSB was a solid spot nonetheless. Since we were here anyway, we figured we would grab dinner. We ordered the Brussels sprouts, the garlic nots, and a few slices. I love a place that does pizza by the slice, especially when it's just two people. They obviously have plenty of beer choices and a full bar, plus they did have one NA beer option (not brewed by them). The food was good. Service was spot on. The Brussels sprouts were probably the highlight. This certainly was not the best pizza I have ever had, but I found nothing to fault it for either. Pretty cool place to grab a drink and a slice. Certainly worth it if you're meeting the bus here, but could also be worth the visit if you're in the area and craving pizza.
