    West Coast Cartel IPA
    Becky J.

    Love this brewery! My favorites are the Lucid AF and West Coast Cartel IPAs. And what's better than some of the best IPA's, the symbiotic relationship that this brewery has with FOOD trucks. Tonight's delight was the On the Hook Fish & Chips! Seriously some of the best fresh, fried alaskan cod out there! Love the comfy & vibrant atmosphere. You can tell the Staff really enjoy working here as they were very friendly and outgoing. Great place. What a treat!

    Adding to my old review, and granting an extra star! Why? Because a random bartender made my night! When my credit card didn't have enough for a full pour, I could only get the CO Pint day glass. This fine fellow comped my beer and made my rainy night that much better. Place is always popular and people love it here. Thanks !

    First time visiting Liquid Mechanics and it was a great experience. The space is really nice and clean and the bartenders were super friendly and inviting. I really like the way they decorated a big, open space. Oftentimes it can feel a little sterile with an open floor concept, but they did a great job with the wood accents, hip corner lounge with studded armchairs and the cask room with barrels lining the wall. We didn't go out on the patio, but it looked nice and chill. The beers we tried were pretty great. If you're an IPA lover like my husband there's a bunch on the menu, but I personally prefer an amber or stout and they had a few options. The Märzen was my favorite and I also got to try the coconut stout which was delicious. My husband got the Jiggle Juice which he thought was good and we also tried the Stuck in Reverse which I thought was a little bitter. The back room with pinball machines was clean and well-maintained. They have a good selection and there's a change machine right next to the machines. A really cool place to hang in Lafayette with a rotating food truck parked outside. Will definitely be back!

    Probably my favorite brewery in the outlying Denver area, with a great venue, awesome selection of delicious beers, and frequented by our favorite LOBSTER Food Truck Lobster and Beer,....what else is there!!!

    Dear Liquid Mechanics Brewing, Having heard nothing but rave reviews about you from fellow beer-lovers over the years, I was beyond excited when my husband's mid-morning tee time gave me a great excuse to tag along for my own brew-venture. After grabbing breakfast and killing some time, I showed up promptly at noon as you opened your doors to sample your delicious nectar. My pup and I snagged a spot on what is typically your patio. I love that you have converted a portion of your parking lot to outdoor seating to help accommodate more thirsty patrons in these strange times. Your well marked social distancing reminders, abundant cleanliness, and cautionary measures did not go unoticed. Wanting to sample as much of your tap list as possible I opted for a flight covering a wide variety of brews. My flight consisted of: Kolsch, Hop Nectar (hazy IPA), Notoriously Brutal (grape brut sour), Purple Reign (boysenberry gose), and Dreamsicle Brutal (tangerine/vanilla sour). Clearly I was leaning towards your tart and sour brews during my visit. Wow! They were all so flavorful and well balanced. I can't pick a favorite, because they were just all soo damn good! Your staff was so friendly and welcoming. They were more than willing to help me with my beer and merch selection. You can tell they truly love what they do! It's so easy to see why you have all the hardware (medals) adorning your walls for your deliciously crafted brews. I can't wait to make my way back and sample even more of your award-winning brews! Fermentedly Yours, Carly "Darling" W.

    Oh, how I wish Liquid Mechanics was my neighborhood brewery, but they're not. They are about a half-hour from where I live, but anytime I'm in the area I stop in. They make consistently good beers with a fair amount of creativity and connection to the seasons. Nothing too over the top but still fun. They also offer a few traditional styles done well on the regular. They usually have a food truck, and when it's warm, they have a great patio to play some games or relax in the sunshine. I have also been in, and they are hosting game nights or live music, so check their social media.

    Cheers!

    Went here on 11/8. There are in Boulder County. So they are only at 25% capacity inside. Outside though, they do have a lot of tables. Tables inside are spread out by 6 feet which is great. You have to wait to be seated. All employees are wearing mask and wiping down each table after people leaves. They have a great selection of beer! All the time! From light to dark! Everything is great. I love this place. Cheers!

The atmosphere is welcoming and cozy, the kind of place where anyone can walk in and feel comfortable. It works just as well for a casual hangout as it does for a night out with friends. The drinks are a highlight. Between the self-pour tap wall, infused liquors, and a well-balanced cocktail menu, there's a lot to choose from. Even the homemade Dr Pepper stood out. For food, the wings were a favorite. Crispy, well cooked, and paired with house-made sauces that really made a difference. The chocolate chip cookie sundae was also a standout and a great way to end the meal. One of the most impressive parts is their dedicated gluten free pizza kitchen. The in-house dough is well done and doesn't feel like a compromise, which is great if you're gluten free or dining with someone who is. Overall, it's a well-rounded spot that does a lot of things right.

There are tables and a bar, the place is well lit and clean. There are also tables for groups and an outdoor area which is great. I am not a beer drinker so I ordered wine. I got a pepperoni pizza so that I could take leftovers to my husband. I also was curious about the gluten free crust. The pizza was good - the pepperoni flavorful. It had a lot of cheese and I would have preferred a little less so that I could better taste the pepperoni and the crust. And the crust was also good. This is a great option for a place to gather with a group if there are gluten free eaters you need to accommodate for as there are many choices. The servers were friendly and due to it being a slow time of day, it took a bit for someone to get to us, but we weren't in a hurry so it was all good. I would definitely try this one again.

It's actually quite easy to miss with Teocalli having way more business just one street down. It's got a lovely interior with lots of wood and a nice rooftop patio. Walking in, I wouldn't think much of it. The menu is relatively simple with some appetizers, salads, hot dogs, sandwiches, and some other things. Where this place shines is their bacon, and by extension their sandwiches. Multiple people I've gone with have said the JGBLT is the best sandwich they've ever had. It's certainly up there for me, just behind panino I've had in Italy. It's nothing complicated, but each part of the sandwich is so well done that the finished product is understated and overwhelming. So good. It's also the perfect portion, every time. It doesn't seem to matter how hungry I am when I come in. They have an excellent beer list with lots of things to choose from. The whiskey menu is absolutely insane, and the whiskey flights are necessary to digest it. A small thing that is really nice- their sodas. It's not just coca cola or Pepsi products- they have craft sodas, which are really excellent. Additionally, you can get their non alcoholic cocktails for the same price as just a soda, which is lovely. The daily specials are always fantastic and a good way to get something unexpected. I will be extremely sad when I have to move from Lafayette, as this restaurant is one of my favorites in the world.

The sound and the joy gave off such a great vibe immediately when walking into this establishment. This review is based on a sit down dinner and a take out on another night because our sit down was so good! Here's all that we tried: POST CHEDDAR BISCUITS - hot and cheesy - these were not as flakey as they looked like they were going to be. Not bad, but nothing to write home about. ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS - sweet and spicy peppers, garlic mojo, cotija cheese | *a portion of sales from this item go to Zero Foodprint -- an org working to combat climate change in the food & beverage industry - these were good, great crispiness, char was flavorful and the sauce was sweet and tangy. Subsequently, I made a hash for breakfast with leftovers from here and these proved to be GOOD flavoring. GREEN CHILE BISON SAUSAGE BOARD (LAFAYETTE) - Rock river bison sausages, hard boiled eggs, dill pickles, bread and butter pickle relish, baked baguette, peach honey mustard - I'm a sucker for charcuterie, the bison sausage was so delicious, I ordered another after we finished the first. This also went into the next day hash! FRIED HALF CHICKEN - our famous gluten free fried chicken, choice of side, pickles, and a biscuit - ordered this on or second visit (takeout night) and did not regret a thing. It was fantastically fried to crispy perfection. The chicken was juicy and tasted like they brined it in pickle juice. CHICKEN TENDERS - all natural tenders, breaded and fried, served with ranch - good chicken, also went into the hash. OG POST BURGER*- american cheese, bacon onion jam, special sauce, griddled sourdough english muffin & fries - good burger, personally, I'd appreciate better cheese! QUINOA & KALE - quinoa, kale, arugula, roasted sweet potatoes, pickled red onions, roasted tomatoes, cucumbers, toasted sesame and sunflower crunch, lemon tahini dressing - the dressing MADE this salad, good job Chef! PUEBLO GREEN CHILE MAC & CHEESE - nothing spectacular, I would have liked this with more green chile and a better cheese base. The parking isn't a lot, but it didn't seem like people had trouble at all. We walked. It's a great little neighborhood restaurant. As I said early on, it was tasty enough to warrant a second visit!

The old brew house has now been converted to additional seating and it can also be rented out as an event space. They've added a permanent food truck in the middle of the patio. Burgers and salads but some nice side options as well. Four or five tables for seating directly across from the truck and some lower seats to lounge or chill as if you were around the campfire. Not needed for this year's mild winter but patio heaters too! Inside you've got bar seating. Plenty of tables both high and low. Even a quieter "kids nook" with some toys and a number of books. Huge perk as a parent is that BOTH bathrooms have a baby changing table! Small thing but a rarity these days. Especially having one in the men's room at all. Game and novelty vending machine adjacent to the brewery merch. They have a large number of board games for rent as well as hosting a number of game nights. Great space and vibe.
