My first stop in Denver as part of my brewery tour (for myself, with myself). From the outside it didn't look like much to me. Upon entering we were greeted by the friendly man behind the bar. He told us we can scan the QR code to see the beer selection. We settled on a flight to try the few beers that caught our eye. 4 beers in a flight and we had to try the Yeti stout. Beers were overall pretty good with a nice variety to choose from. It wasn't a bad place to start out and I liked the warm vibes inside.
While in Denver to see a show we decided our day activites should be beer tasting through Lodo and Lohi! Great Divide has a great tasting area. You can do as little or as much flites as you want. I went in for the dark beers and the reds but tried the lagers.. handsdown the Pottsville Lager is a must have! They also specialize in selzers. While I did not try, I think they should be a must have on your tasting list. Service here is so great. Everyone is happy to recommend and discuss the beers. Take a beer trip when in Denver to Great Divide- drink local!
In our Tin Tacker trek across the Midwest we are finishing the trip with Octoberfest in Denver. We've found a couple of nice breweries, Great Dividend Brewing Co downtown. This place made me think about having beers with "my beer friends", good people in the bar and a great staff. We had some very tasty Hazy IPA's but really should have tried that peanut butter stout that looked so rich. If you try it please post on whether it was a delicious as it looked. And we found a tin tacker. Merch was limited to some T's and stickers but they had the golden tacker! Service, quality of beers and an awesome friendly place. Visit and reply, I'd like to know what you think.
We booked an afternoon tour following another brewery walking tour that had started here. The tour wasn't anywhere close to the advertised 45 minutes; however, for $10, including a glass and free pint, it's hard to go wrong. Our guide, I can't remember his name, was personable and knowledgeable. I'd definitely recommend if you like beer and are interested in learning more about how beer is made and the inner workings of a brewery.
Pros: Located in a hip part of town Lots of brews on tap You can order a flight of as many as you want to try - we tried 6 Favorites were Wild Raz (notes of raspberry) and Brunch and Bubbles (like a mimosa) Local musician was great Loved seeing where some of the beer is brewed Cons: Indoor and outdoor seating is a bit limited Decor could be updated some No food offered Staffing a bit thin Pro tip: Roll the dice and let the bartender know what you generally like and let them choose some options!
Went here by chance while in Denver for a conference. We did their 4PM tour ($10) which lasted around 20 min. The guide was very knowledgeable and was able to answer all of our questions. As part of the tour, you get a mug and a drink which is not a bad deal. The expresso yeti was fantastic. Highly recommend.
My most recent trip to Denver brought my friends and I to Great Divide. The fellas and I were on a brewery tour and had to check this place out. It's one of the pioneers of the Denver brewing scene. This location was convenient to where we were staying. Parking was easy. The inside was small, but at the same time, it seemed like alot of people were packed in there. We snagged a table and ordered at the bar. Two of my favorite flavor profiles popped out at me right away. I ordered a small pour of the Peanut Butter Yeti and also the Strawberry Rhubarb Sour. Two different types of beer, but they were both delicious. I would totally order these again. Out of the breweries we tried in Denver, this place is high up on my list as one of my favorites. I will be back!
I've tried Great Divide before, but I never got into the taproom until this past week. I'm so glad I finally stopped by! They had a great selection of beer varieties and seltzers. I ordered the Japanese Rice Lager and really enjoyed it. I would definitely get it again, and would love to see it in stores near me! The bartender was friendly and welcomed us in. The taproom isn't huge, especially the bar when you first walk in. There's more seating in the back, but I didn't get to check out that area. The inside is very casual and inviting, your typical brewery/taproom feel. I would love to come back soon and check out more of the actual brewery area! Definitely check out Great Divide if you're in the area and looking for some drinks/good beer!
Great Divide was on the list of breweries/beers to try while visiting Denver. Stopped in and ordered a flight of IPAs. They were all pretty good! It's located in the downtown area and there is street parking available. Upon walking in, thought there was a larger space in the back but it was pretty small. Seems that they have an upstairs/rooftop area but it wasn't open. Would have been nice to sit up there and enjoy the beers. The bar area wasn't the biggest, but that wasn't w deal breaker since the beer was pretty good. Would love to try them again and sit upstairs with a little more space, as well as a brewery tour. Give them a try if you're in the area!
When in Denver, get craft beer and this spot brews some of the best. Stopping in on a Sunday afternoon in March, my wife and I each got a 16 ounce pour and enjoyed it on their outdoor patio as we read books. My wife loved her IPA and the strawberry rhubarb sour ale was refreshing. It's not overly sour, but I enjoyed it!
Stopped in on day 2 of our beercation in Denver. We are fans of their Yeti beers and ordered a flight of Expresso Yeti-Stout Horchata Yeti-Stout Pumpkin Spice Yeti-Stout Barrel aged Yeti-Stout Strawberry Rhubarb -Sour Passion Fruit Guava Gose -Sour Wild Raspberry Fruit Ale Hoss-Marzen Full pour of Experimental Lager with thiolized yeast Velvet Yeti-Stout on nitro Most of the beers were great, I didn't care for the pumpkin stout much and the horchata stout was like a thick, super sweet syrup. I had to remove a couple stars because most of my 3oz. glasses were only filled halfway and then my husband bought a souvenir that he was supposed to get a discount for, instead they overcharged him for it, other than that the beer is good.
Hubby wanted to stop here because of the great reviews and local recommendations. Parking was a breeze but I was surprised to see how small it is inside. We ended up sitting at the bar which was fine. We placed our order pretty quickly and I sampled the wild raspberry ale and car camper and ended up ordering the Mango + ginger seltzer. I'm not a huge seltzer fan but they didn't really have anything else that appealed to my palate. The seltzer was good but I hoped for a more extensive list of blonde or pale options. I'm sure true beer drinkers will have their fill here but sadly it wasn't for me.
As someone who's big into craft beer and who's had layovers at Denver often, I was SO excited to visit a Great Divide location in person! Got here about 40 minutes before closing, so mentally knew I was only getting one beer. However, I've never felt more unwelcome by a bartender than the guy closing tonight. Before greeting us hello, he quickly stated how they were closing soon. When my friend asked if she could get a flight, the bartender sighed and said "I guess". Because of that, I didn't even wanna get a flight cause of the disgust on his face for having to pour one flight, let alone two. The whole experience was honestly ruined cause of how annoyed the bartender was; probably would have liked my raspberry wheat more if I felt like I could actually enjoy my beer.

Great Divide Brewing Company is a Denver staple. They've been brewing great beers for longer than most, and their taproom is a great place to experience fresh beer and pick up some to-go beers or merchandise. The taproom is small, although they have expanded it from what it used to be. It's well-decorated with plenty of GABF medals and other brewing decor. Usually, you'll find people playing games or enjoying music. Service is typically stellar, with fun people pouring beers and putting smiles on faces. read more

Such an incredible experience and service with Great Divide at Lafayette Brew Fest! Beer is freaking amazing, I tried their Mile High Hazy is the perfect balance of hoppy and refreshing! 10/10 would drink again read more
I love going to breweries when I'm visiting a new town or city and made no exception to this theme while I was in Denver. Great Divide was the first brewery I stopped in while I was preparing to go to the Dodgers vs. Rockies game later that evening. I wasn't impressed with the beer selection nor was I impressed with their selection of merchandise (I try to buy a shirt from each brewery I visit). My girl did, however, enjoy that they had seltzers on tap. I believe she liked the mango-ginger seltzer the best. Most of the beers they offered were IPAs, sours/saisons, and some pumpkin spice beers. Not exactly what I was looking for. Their lager was okay. read more
Cool brewery in the heart of Denver. I wasn't expecting it to be very small with limited seating. We were beer hopping today and this was our first stop. There are some table tops with a full bar inside but it can get crowded easily. It was a nice afternoon so we sat outside, hardly any tables taken out there. The beer selection was decent, however they do not serve food. So if you're lucky you may catch a food truck, depending on what day or time you're there. We also got some cans to go to bring back home with us. Pretty cool brewery! read more

Very cool spot to grab some good beer. It's definitely off the beaten path but worth a visit. The beer is very good, staff is friendly and knowledgeable and definitely a great spot to relax for a bit. If you're in the area, I recommend stepping in for a beer...or two...or three! read more
Be expected to show ID and wear a mask until you're seated here. It's also very small compared to a lot of other breweries I've been to. I was seated in front of a wall which wasn't great. Hard to stay longer when you're seated somewhere like that. Nevertheless, I was still keen to try some of the many beers offered here. There should easily be something for every beer drinker here. They also have new beers added every few weeks so you could drink something different every time you come here. Service was prompt to begin with which was awesome but I had to wait ages after having my second drink before I could grab someone's attention. I may have had a third of it weren't for that. As for food, there was a food truck out front when I was here. Social distancing is enforced well here which is always good to see. That includes masking up and tables spaced well enough away. read more
One of my favorite breweries that we went to in Denver. Located right downtown it was within walking distance to where we were staying. They have an indoor tasting room and am outdoor patio area. They don't serve food but they frequently have food trucks. Nothing goes better with beer than something from a food truck. We had the Great divide hazy IPA and the Titan IPA. Both were great and matched the style perfectly. Friendly staff and great swag. read more
The bar is clean and has a basic aesthetic. The employees were lowkey rude. We walked in an hour before close and we're immediately told it's last call. When I asked if I could have a flight I was told "I guess" my friend also asked how there day was and they said "we are about to be out of here"'so they didn't seem to even enjoy it here. We wanted to play a game but we're scared we'd be scolded so we chose not to, but they do have monopoly, candy land, Yahtzee, uno, and more. Couldn't tell you everything I got in my flight because it was rushed when giving the breakdown. The place says it closed at 8pm but at 7:50 we were told to finish our drinks because they close in 4 minutes. They cut the music and stacked all the chairs. I'm sure this place has potential but also the area is a bit sketchy. So do with that as you please. There is a great divide between customer service and hospitality. read more

I've had some of this beer from my old craft beer store in California. So I was looking forward to trying more of their beers. Great Divide didn't disappoint. I got a beer flight and each beer was solid. Great location and good atmosphere inside. read more
Found about Great Divide from the GABF, they had a long line and it was local so we dropped by here the day after the festival to check it out. I got the imperial sour with raspberry barrel aged and it was the best thing I've tried that weekend! It was delicious. All their beers were delicious. Small tasting room and limited seating inside. I gotta come back here when I'm in Denver! read more

This was on my list to visit but knew I couldn't go without my wife and daughter. My daughter loves anything about big foots and I've recently have a love for it as well. This place was so damn cool and probably our favorite brewery visit. We liked Blue Moon because it's blue moon, but this place was different. We arrived, chose our beers, I got a flight and enjoyed them. It was nice because this place was in walking distance from the hotel. They had all sorts of merch and we got shirts, glassware, and much more. Loved the atmosphere. Smaller place. Place was solid packed with lots of people stopping for take out. They had food options as well but we just wanted to sample the beer. Ever since I've got home from Denver, we've been so fortunate to locate beer from great divide here locally which is so cool. Great place, who knew that I had the same walk as a yeti. read more
We had our Denver Bicycle Lobby Happy Hour here to celebrate them being a bike friendly business. Staff was so kind and amazing to our group. Not to mention they are a bike friendly business. Great spot! Highly recommend. read more

I had a 4oz taster of the Wild Raspberry Ale and another of the Strawberry Rhubarb. My husband had the 16oz Pale Ale w/Cryo Pop. We liked that the bartender explained the beers and flavor profiles. The beer was solid. Meaning we would visit again if we were in the area, however wouldn't go out of our way to visit. The atmosphere was cool. They had a lot of space indoor and outdoor. read more
