I just left Ten Bears where I was there for about one hour with 2 girlfriends. The owner, William,…read morewas already visibly intoxicated (with 2 glasses of wine for himself nearby, a red and a white). Pretty quickly over the following 60 minutes he became verbally aggressive, psychologically abusive, and patronizing to myself and my girlfriends. I have NEVER in my life had this experience, and I have traveled all over the US and the world, interacting with thousands of people from countless cultures. William literally flipped a switch and began telling us "I have kicked people out of here before who were above you, and you are here" indicating with his hands that we were below whomever he had an experience with in the past. He also told one of my girlfriends that she doesn't know wine and that she is a "condescending bitch", because she was engaged in a conversation with him about his wines. I invited William to sit at our table with us early on (which he did) and when he switched to the drunk monster that he truly is, I saw it in his eyes. It is VERY obvious that this individual has LOTS of issues he needs to work through and is currently using alcohol as a coping mechanism, while also verbally assaulting his female customers. Unfortunately, we were the only 3 people in the tasting room and had we had a male with us, we surely would not have had the same experience. I immediately began to shut down (trauma response) and tears began streaming down my face. Normally with this type of male (gaslighting, condescending, and toxic to the nth degree), I would have been overly confrontational but the things he said and the look in his eyes, I knew that it was in my best physical health to not fully engage. I looked at him right before we left and said "I want you to know that this feeling, the tears I can't control, are real and you alone caused this". He then made fun of me for my tears and told us to leave as we were trying to pay. We obviously left and were and still are in complete shock. This individual needs to not only seek mental and substance use help but also should not be running a winery. Do NOT go to Ten Bears, especially if you are alone, are a group of women, and/or care about the safety of women. Ladies, go to Sweetheart Winery in Loveland, never had an issue there.

Nice second stop at Odell yesterday. We started with a flight, as well as splitting a can (not on…read moredraft) of the Limerado. We liked the latter enough, so we took a six-pack, priced at only $8.99, home with us. Honestly, this one may have been my favorite. As far as the flight, we both liked the Lagerado the best and each enjoyed another pint of that after finishing the flight. I also liked the Kernel Mexican lager, although we both agreed it had a bit of a weird taste. The 90 Shilling is always a safe bet. Further confirmation neither of us like pilsners, that one wasn't great, and the Old Doods stout wasn't our jam either. It was a lovely day, so we sat outdoors relatively early on a Sunday. Plenty of shady seating for us. Counter service was very friendly too. We'll definitely be back next time we're in Ft. Collins.

I did take off one star because sometimes it starts to feel like a playground that serves beer. I get that parents want to be able to enjoy a beer but maybe rethink brining your kids. I have had kids toss a ball back and forth over my head - it was only a matter of time before I got hit, I asked them to move, the parents were oblivious. I wouldn't complain if I was at a park but I am at a BREWERY. Kids are screaming and running around, and that is not relaxing.

Came here to do some wine tasting. Before I came I made sure that this place offers wine that they…read moremake from their own grapes. When I came I saw that this place is basically a smaller mom-and-pops winery, which offered 4 of their own wines, including other wines that they imported and fermented themselves. So, I just ordered their own wines. You can taste 4 wines from a list. Luckily, all 4 were from their own Colorado home vines. I sat outside at a table looking over their vineyards. I ended up buying a single glass of their white wine. I had a good time and the prices weren't bad. Plus, they had a few cute pups (Tucker the Golden Retriever!) come up to me to keep me company.

This is something I would definitely do again. So I hope they do it again because I believe this was a special event.

We loved the space, sat the bar and chatted with the woman working (I'm sorry I don't recall her name but she was great!) while we perused the menu. We started off with tasting size pours just to start and ordered the premium cheese board to start. I was pretty hungry but we were assured that the small is perfect for two and she was absolutely correct. The board was presented beautifully with a wonderful combination of cheeses, nuts, fruits, and meats. It went so well with their wines. All of the wines we tried were excellent, my favorite was the 5 barrel Cab Sauv. Loved the space, the food, their wines, and the service..definitely worth a visit if you are in the area!

Their charcuterie options were also abundant but we opted for the Colorado wild game sausage board.

They also offer meads, mulled cider, and an entirely new food menu that pairs perfectly with the drinks. There's clearly a lot of thought going into the experience now. We also heard a new deck area is coming soon, plus plans for a paella night--which honestly sounds amazing and gives us even more reason to come back. If you haven't been to Snowy Peaks recently, it's absolutely worth another visit. They're doing great things and it's becoming a must-stop spot in Estes Park.

Basically Vintages is a small batch winery located in the heart of old town Fort Collins. They have been open for about ten years and they specialize in people coming in and handcrafting their own wine which they then make in house. The way the whole process works is that you come in and have a wine tasting with one of their fantastically knowledgeable winemakers. They run through a huge gambit of wine varieties from all over the world in an effort to teach you about wine and hone you taste to what you prefer. After that there is no obligation but you can order a case of wine and have it made there for you. Once you wine is ready, you come back in to bottle, label and cork your wine. The wine is priced by the case, and is very cheap when compared to buying commercial wine. The wines we tasted were fantastic and the option of making your own is fun and also cost effective. I would definitely recommend this as a fun date or for anyone who wants to learn more about wine. It is also perfect for those more knowledgeable in wine and looking to stock their personal cellar or give out their own wine as a fun gift. The service was excellent and the winery itself was charming for just being in a strip mall setting. The owner even gave the person in our group six free bottles of wine for just bringing her friends in. It was an excellent experience overall.
