    Chicken "cheesesteak" with fries and green chili beer cheese.
    Otis M.

    Stopped in for lunch on the advice of a dear friend, and WOW! Had the London porter, Little Mo' and a chicken "cheesesteak" with fries. My only complaint is it was too much food, as I was dining alone! Do yourself two favors: bring a friend, and get the green Chile beer cheese. That cheese sauce is life changing!! The chicken was excellent, the grilled bread and peppers and onions were cooked perfectly and served piping hot. The shoestring fries were cooked crispy and seasoned well, and I can't say enough about that green Chile beer cheese. The service from the food truck and bar were both amazing, and I will definitely be back!!

    We were driving into Salida from and saw a sign by the highway that said "Elevation Beer Co". I had never heard of them before and we weren't too far so we decided try stop in. The brewery is awesome! They had tons of shaded outdoor seating, and some indoor eating. They do have a food trick that is there all of the time if you want to grab some food. the staff was friendly and they have a great beer election.

    Huge space and cool vibes! The lady behind the bar was super helpful and let me try some tasters before deciding. I ended up with the passion fruit and prickly pear gose which was too sour for me, and I really like sours, but would definitely go back and try something else. The others liked their IPAS. I ended up getting a tin tacker sign and variety pack of their seltzers.

    We enjoyed our dinner and drinks at Elevation Beer Co. Nice, dog-friendly with lots of shade. To drink we had the kolsch and the porter. Really solid beers. To eat we shared Colorado Poutine and two orders of falafel. Everything was delicious. Beertender was very friendly and outgoing. Only reason for 4 stars and not 5 was that our total was $70, which, in my opinion, is pretty outrageous for dinner for two at a brewery. Will keep drinking their beer, as we like to purchase it from the store, but will likely skip the food next time.

    I've stopped at Elevation since 2012, less often since my peak bagging days have been fewer in the last four years. While tastes and trends change, Elevation has stayed on my radar simply because their beers are well made--crisp & clean, no telltale signs of brewing blunders. Like anywhere, some styles are better than others. My favorite is the Senorita porter with horchata. Mmm. My last trip came in late October as part of a fall color peeping trip to the southern Sawatch and Bonanza Mine. Since my last visit in 2018, Elevation has added a nice outdoor patio with a covered seating area--and the best addition--a food truck. Looking to try something new, I had a pint of the hazy Hop Kid IPA and it was surprisingly delicious, far better than its online rating. I would buy it if it were canned. While I sipped, my green chile slopper burger was coming together in the food truck. As a former New Mexican, I've noted that the further south one goes in CO, the better the green chile. Elevation's version would be most welcome in Denver, especially at this price. Meat quality was great and I could barely finish the fries. Before hitting the road, I sampled the vanilla version of their barrel aged stout, Oil Man. At 10.8% abv, I don't recommend a pint of this before heading back to Denver, but I do recommend it. Staff have always been patient and friendly, with plenty of beer knowledge. Overall, Elevation has steadily provided great mountain town brews for about a decade, but has upped their game with renovations and a food truck with solid options at a great price. While there are several local choices for brewery/food, you won't do better than here for beer quality.

    Went there on 9/18/21. We were driving through and we got some To Go beer. Looks like they have a good size covered patio. Then the inside is decent. Bartender was very friendly. Looks like they Can all of their beer. You can also buy beers individually. Fun atmosphere. Cheers!

    What a beautiful location and a very fun mountain experience. Service was fantastic, food mediocre and beer solid. Enjoyed the milkshake duck! And oilman. Really fun location to check out.

    I really enjoyed this brewery stop! A nice surprise just outside of Salida, CO whenever the owner is super friendly and loves to talk about the beers. I particularly enjoyed the maibock and the three Amigos lager. Really busy but not surprisingly because of the good beer and friendly staff. I'm a huge fan of brewers that love what they do and it really shows here. Next time your traveling around lower Colorado!

    With the extra time I now have due to covid, I thought I'd spend it reviewing some of the great places I've been. I visited Elevation Beer last summer during a "14er" project where we featured 14ers, distilleries, and of course breweries! This one stood out as one of the best. First, the beer stands up very well to Colorado's demand for high quality beer. Good selection, good taste. I tend to lean towards the boozier dark porters and stouts, while my boyfriend likes super hoppy IPAs - they had a good selection of both. This is also a very chill place to hang out. The bar is made of beautiful wood and has a great atmosphere. There is a large patio with a food truck - and if the truck isn't open they don't mind if you order delivery. If you want to check out my episode featuring Elevation, here's a link to my visit: https://youtu.be/cfJKbMmKkqg When the world opens up again after the pandemic - make sure this is one of the first places you visit.

    Stopped at Elevation Brewery to pick up a couple of beers. I like stouts and didn't know which ones to buy so the waitress gave me a few tastings. The tastings in Colorado are definitely Texas Sized. Wish we could have set down for a drink, but had to hit the road. The Oil Man stout was my favorite.

    Solid beers is what Steve and I enjoyed from Elevation Beer! We had two different beers from this brewery, both of which we enjoyed. The beer isn't super experimental on the ingredient and flavor side but that's ok. We likes the two we had all the same. Raspberry Gulch was our first beer, a fruited beer with raspberry leanings as the name implies. Despite this berry being very sweet the beer wasn't too heavy handed with the sugar and was a lighter beer in texture which I could appreciate. Probably because it was a saison which tends to have lighter characteristics. Next up was the Little Mo. A porter which was good as well. Dark and robust but again not too terribly heavy in volume which I felt to my benefit. I don't particularly care to have heavy beers much these days despite trying all kinds of different beer styles. Intriguing brewery swag as well... something I enjoy as much as the beer drinking. I do enjoy my souvineers from all the different breweries we encounter.

    Total hidden gem! Off the beaten track...totally worth finding. Beer selection is fantastic, plus to-go cans if you find something you like. I took home some four packs of the Oil Man bourbon aged imperial stout. Food truck on the side had one of the best burgers I've ever had (green chile bacon burger) and their fries are amazing. Make the detour and get in this place! Indoor and outdoor seating. Family friendly. Clean bathrooms

    Stopped here on the way to the Sand Dunes…read more Great personable service! We liked every beer in our flight: Dark Matter, Rye'd or Die, Charlie's Brown and the Sunset Sour. For food we had the Pastrami Sandwich ... To.Die.For!!! And the All American Smashburger. We were even more in luck with an Irish Band jam session. Totally recommend this place!

    Trying to catch all the local breweries in Salida, CO. Each…read moreis unique in their own. Stopped in to check it out; a Sunday, several people sitting at tables and a few at the bar. It's a fairly large interior and nicely decorated but low keyed; nothing extravagant but nice homey feel. We sat at the bar; the place now started to get really busy. I had the Charlie Brown; Pours a thin head on a light brown body. The aroma is mild grain and molasses. The taste has a mild sweet start with a nutty backend. The texture is thin. It has great flavor. Apparently it was the beer for the day since many patrons were selecting it. My other half ordered Zinga Son; a nice Mexican lager; tastes very similar to a Corona but the taste was much more rich and crisp; with a tad German hops and Mexican yeast. And yes a food truck on site for those that are hungry works and co-exists with the brewery. The menu is simple but effective. We did order a large pretzel with a nice German stone ground mustard. Enjoyed our time there! Also a shout out to Abby who handled the steady flow of customers and an extremely busy Sunday. She did it all with poise and grace! Stop in if you're in the area.
