This is a hole-in-the-wall spot with a small selection of good beer. We got a flight to try each kind and the pilsner was especially tasty. I liked the Bigfoot artwork, but otherwise the decor leaves much to be desired. Definitely don't go here for the vibes but overall it's a decent mountain town brewery.

IPA after a powder dump on Winter Park and my girl MJ

After shredding 25" of powder at Winter Park/Mary Jane, I decided to stay at the Headwaters Hostel in Granby to not have to drive the pass back to Denver. Found this brewery on Yelp and decided to give it a try to have some cold beers. Glad I stopped by and wish more people would visit Nick's place. I was the only one there on a Friday, but the snow was coming down sideways outside. Had a great conversation with Nick and sat by the window to watch the world go by. The place is next to a kid's consignment store and there are plenty of seats and coaches to sit down to enjoy Nick's wonderful beer. I had 3 beers - Total Hopulation IPA, Big Swig Porter, and Wiley-Garry Pale Ale in that order. The IPA had a western fruity flavor and was smooth. The Porter was spot on with the sweet malty flavor and the Pale Ale went down before I even knew it. Loved the beer and hope to visit again on my next trip out there.

Its only about 30 feet from the barrel to the bar at this micro brewery. Most of the time the beer you saw last time won't be there since he is always doing something different. If you are interested in a quiet place to sip some brew and eat some pretzels and are in Granby then drop by. I've tried several of the offerings here and all were worth the price for sure.

Coolest little brewery I've EVER been too and I had the best beer I've ever tasted there. I'm quite sad that I cannot get his beer at any store or shipped to my place, but I'm glad I got to experience the goodness! Small, local hidden gem in downtown Grandby. They have high tops, a leather couch and some bar seating as well. You can buy brewing gear here and homemade soaps when you walk in. Never Summer Brewing has several games to choose from like checkers and Connect Four to play while you enjoy a beer. We played about 16 rounds of Connect Four while there. Very fun! My husband and I had the place to ourselves for a while before a few locals came by later in the evening. I sipped on their 7 Utes Belgian Golden beer all night which was fantastic. It was smooth with notes of banana, fruit and very low hops. Really unique flavor where you could taste about 3 different things at once. Similar to a really good hefeweizen but so creamy! Be careful with this beer though as it's ABV is 7.8%. My husband had their Belgian Dubbel which had a smooth malty taste with great flavor and low hops. I really liked his beer too! Both were very easy to drink. The owner is very nice and easy going. Thank you for the awesome beer and time!

The bar!

Maybe they have good beer? But this place is the most uninspiring and unattractive looking - and someone just has to point it out! I didn't even want to stay. Work on the ambiance guys!

Don't drive by without a stop! If you like beer you'll love this nano-brewery in the small town of Granby Colorado. Named after the nearby mountain range, this small craft brewery servers up delicious beer brewed and the beers are personally served by the brewery owner Kirk Main. The tasting area only seats a handful of people at the hand crafted, beetle kill pine wood bar. Kirk is an gracious, unassuming host and his beers are tasty. We tried them all and loved his Bowen Peak IPA. We'll be returning in a couple days to try his pale ale which was still aging when we arrived. Kirk's brewing capacity is merely one barrel.

Today's selection ...

Great selection! We felt very welcome here - Austin was knowledgeable of the beer and the area - very friendly. They have seating for 5 at the bar and about 15 more at various tables. Games to play while you enjoy your beer or taste the flights... and hand-crafted orange soda for those not of sampling age for the brews. Our group tried the flights available today. The Red Ale is awesome, so is the Saison. The Oatmeal Stout is truly a meal - very smooth.

Stumbled upon this brewery while looking for grand lake brewery. (I might add grand lake brewery is not accesible to the public). This was a great find! The beer was very good. We bought some hops at a very decent price, can't wait to start fermenting our own beer at home.

The Owner and his family made us feel welcomed and appreciated, we truly had a wonderful time talking with everyone in there! The perfect place to stop and enjoy your evening! Put the cherry on top of our trip! Be sure to decorate yourself a dollar while there and stick it somewhere! Cool vibe inside!

The owner Phillip was drinking a Guinness at the bar when we arrived with his back to the door. No welcome. Just told us to sit anywhere. Turns out the whole family works there. Met the daughter Grace while perusing the menu. Not a lot of options but we tried the chicken wings with pints of Outlaw lager beer. Both were fairly tasty. Looking around at the tiny place made me think of a cozy little British pub. The tunes playing in the background were pleasant. The owner told us his story about buying the business and how his family worked there. Saturday afternoon had only three family members as the wife was out. As sweet as his daughter was, she was far too talkative to patrons and fairly ignored the two groups of people who came inside and sat down. Her dad was in the back washing dishes and we still waited 10 minutes to order our main dish. The other patrons even got up to look in back to see if anyone was working there because they were ignored. About ten minutes later the owner came around the corner but Daughter was still gossiping outside. He scurried around. We split the fish and chips between the two of us as well as the salad. I was not impressed with the food. The small pieces of battered fish were decent but the overcooked fries and the salad were NOT good. I was bummed. It's like they realize the fish portions are small and they overcompensate with too many fries. I really wanted to like the place. The salad dressing came in store bought packets. Bottom line; only come for the beer and you will be happy.

Westbound & Down is a great place to check out and service matches the great beers they offer as well. Greeted with a warm welcome and a smile, we were quickly whisked away to our seats and greeted by a wonderful waitress with colorful tattoos on one arm and black/white tattoos on the other. She ran through the list of food and beverage like she had written the menus. The ambiance matched their personalities and easily had the mountain vibes! We ended up getting something fairly small since we had big plans for dinner in town. The bison burger was such a great bite after bite and the fries did not disappoint. We would certainly return and check it out again and again!

Overall, this place was fine. The interior is huge and has fun, western decor. We were seated…read morequickly during Saturday lunchtime which was nice. Unfortunately the service and food were average at best. Our waiter seemed rushed and barely made eye contact or stopped at our table. The burger and chicken sandwich were fine. The fries were the best part. The chicken sandwich had way too much coleslaw so the bun disintegrated pretty quickly. We enjoyed the food enough but at the price, we expected more both from the food and the service.
