I've tried some really great stuff from there and have learned about some really excellent breweries. They also have a nice selection of canned mixed drinks, also sold individually.

Service is always excellent and Covid-19 concerns and protocols are taken seriously. A great little shop with great products and easy parking.

I…read moregenuinely feel like a cheesemaker now, and have applied much of the ongoing learning I've gleaned from these courses to numerous homemade cheeses. I know enough to tackle many cheeses - from chevre to cheddar and everything in in between. However, I was cursed by mozzarella - for the life of me, I could not make mozzarella that didn't turn out like hard, tasteless rubber - trying to follow a recipe off the internet - I was convinced it was an impossible cheese. After Kate's hands-on class, not only did I make an incredibly tasty mozzarella - she also showed us how to turn it into a special Burrata - which tasted amazing and looked beautiful. I learned how to make a great mozzarella in the class and regained my confidence in tackling this cheese - thanks to Kate's careful instruction and sharing several tips and tricks to this tricky little cheese.

Happy cheesing!

Brix invites you in to relax, take your time and browse. The theme, colors and lighting gives the feeling of classiness however the liquor prices are very reasonable. The signage on the front indicates that they often offer wine and beer tastings on Fridays- how nice! I also found out that they deliver too! One of the better liquor stores in northern Colorado.

Their charcuterie options were also abundant but we opted for the Colorado wild game sausage board. So worth it to try some exotic meats including elk, wild boar & blueberry, and the most interesting in my opinion...the pheasant and rattlesnake sausage. All were flavorful and went well w the beer cheese and jam but I personally loved the elk sausage the most.

The staff is outstanding--everyone we interacted with was genuinely friendly and went out of their way to make sure we had the best experience. You can tell they really care about what they're building here. The wine selection is excellent, and their flights are a steal at just $14. 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.

But know that their staff is always so helpful, their selections af beers and wines, the best in the area, and their membership pricing which costs nothing but registering with a phone # is a great savings for customers. Being locally owned matters to me in times when local businesses are under attack by huge corporate sellers. Hazel's completes well on selection, staffing and pricing and its location is so convenient.

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.

From a Staub cookware and Miyabi knives, to adorable aprons and cat booty magnets they've got you covered. Aside from top notch customer service, nearby covered parking, and central location they offer a variety of cooking classes to satisfy any age palate. I've been eyeing the date night classes for quite some time and can't wait to tell my friends about their kiddie cooking camps and classes. I was surprised to find everything from French pastry, to restaurant ramen, pasta ravioli, tamales, from scratch dim sum to Korean bbq. You could literally learn to cook anything. If you are looking to spruce up your kitchen be it accessories or a new Kitchenaid mixer I highly recommend popping in for a visit.

I burned my tongue and it was so worth it. I would recommend asking for a second scoop of ice cream as it felt a little small in comparison to the size of the cookie. But get this dessert! The property is quite nice to walk around and even has a little gift shop. Give them a visit!

Located in rural weld County in Fort Lupton, sits this little gem that you have to check out!…read more At my daughter suggestion with family in town from far away cities, we chose Salt and Acres as our meeting place on a warm fall weekend. The first thing that grabs you as you're driving through the back, roads of Weld County among farms and ranches is the warmth of this location with trees, a long drive and a small pond. It truly is a picturesque setting and some families were already walking around the pond and nearby grounds taking family photos. We had a small wait for our table, which was not unexpected since had a large group. The drink options were amazing and the bartenders on duty did not disappoint with their preparations. The menu however, was great for those who were seeking carbs, but left something to be desired if you were seeking any protein options. We started with the Charcuterie and Bruschetta Barrata boards along with the Warm Spinach and Artichoke dip. A couple of flatbread pizzas wrapped up the dinner options for us. We were celebrating a birthday and brought a cake in the staff was kind enough to let us keep it in the cooler until it was time to be served. With almost every table filled outdoors and indoors, the staff did a good job of keeping up with our tables needs and balancing the other tables in their respective stations. We did have to seek out our waiter a couple of times to order additional items but they were quite busy. This place is ideal for a light, relaxing meal with drinks and the company of friends. It is not the place to go for those with a hearty appetite as you may be disappointed with the scarcity of options on the menu, but for events in a beautiful setting, you can't go wrong here!
