My husband and I really enjoyed our time at this brewery! Beers were delicious. My favorite was the liopleurodon porter which was brewed with coffee, cinnamon, and fire roasted chili peppers. We will definitely be coming back for that beer. The depth of flavor was incredible. One of the best beers I've ever tasted. Their sours were also really clean and delicious. And the chocolate fig stout was my husband's favorite. We will definitely be back! We also had a taster of their Russian imperial stout (not pictured) and it was really good. One of the best we've had. read more

Vision Quest Brewery - Lime sour, guava sour, pastry sour, liopleurodon porter & chocolate/fig stout - Breweries Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

Pretty good selection of beers; it's hard to find places that do good dark beers and I thought they did pretty ok. I like the vibes of the place though; simple, no-nonsense kind of small breweries with regulars who sit by the bar and chat with the staff. There were people with their laptops working away as well. Best part of this place is the golden toilet. Way to make your customers feel like a king. read more

Vision Quest is a microbrewery in Boulder that has been doing it the right way for awhile now. Until my visit last weekend, it had been years since I had been in the taproom. Nothing has changed whatsoever. From the funky mural on the garage door to the sticker-lined walls of the cooler to the remote location on the less popular side of Boulder, Vision Quest is proof that us beer lovers still long for breweries of this nature. See Andrew H's recent review for his spot-on analysis! The beer selection rocks. Pales, porters, IPA's, lagers, sours, stouts, and ambers. Quality over quantity, while still maintaining a variety of flavors. I was in a pale/IPA mood last Friday, and the Hoosier Head and Boombox were quite tasty. Only a few seats at the bar, but plenty of seating indoors. If the weather is nice, you'll find everyone sitting outside staring at the mountains. They host community events, vinyl nights, have a bunch of board games, etc. These are the breweries of yesteryear. The one that skyrocketed the craft beer movement. They are a dime a dozen these days. Vision Quest is one of them, and you can still find that magic here. read more

This is the type of brewery that used to be all over America, but that you rarely find anymore: A tiny production brewery with a bolted on customer-facing area that brews great beer first and focuses on cute ambiance second. Granted the ambiance here is very fun, it feels 'college' in the best sense of that term. The young people running that taps and hanging out gave me hope for the future. Crazy that chill college breweries like this still exist! Especially in a town with basic-ass hotels for $700/night. read more

Chill, vibey, brewery. I'll admit we did want something outside on a nice sunny Saturday afternoon in May, but we also wanted to ride our bikes from downtown so ended up here. We were still able to bring our dogs. And the inside is decorated really fun - black light/space themed. We were the only ones in there when we first got there but by the time we left it was filling up and a band was setting up. Nice beer selections and different sizes so that you can try a few. read more

Cute little brewery a little out of the hustle and bustle of pearl. We rode bikes there and they have easy bike parking for locking up. The Hazy was delicious, and service was friendly and helpful. They were setting up for some live music just as we were leaving on a Saturday afternoon, sad to have missed it! read more

Was getting my car serviced around the corner and had 90mins to kill, figured I would try Vision Quest. Great beer and fun atmosphere (although it is 1:30 on a Thursday, so not many people here). I get it hops later in the day. Had a BBQ food truck, but I wasn't hungry. I will definitely come back read more

Vision Quest Brewery has been on my radar for a while and I was delighted to get it fitted in to the plethora of breweries I was paying a visit to on my trip. Beers are most definitely unique and out of the ordinary. I got a smoked beer, something I don't see very often called the Lichtenhaner. As I said. Very unique . This beer had a blending of smoky(obviously) with lemony and woody flavors. It definitely provided a unique beer experience and one that I was fond of. read more

Vision Quest Brewery - Awesome tasting beer at VisionQuest Brewing! - Breweries Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

Cool name and logo, and maybe the best selection of stouts and porters of any brewery we've tried since moving to Colorado. I enjoyed my flight of the Chocolate cherry amaretto stout, endless lunch dessert stout, and the magical liopleurodon. The first one was probably my favorite, and the last one, with its strong chili pepper taste kind of wore on me by the end. My wife enjoyed her vanilla alley, but with its 14% alcohol, she wisely decided one was enough. This brewery is kind of a hole in the wall back in a warehouse area, but the vibe was cool, the bartender was friendly, and the beers were good. We hung out in the outdoor area in the parking lot with our pup, enjoying a nice Boulder summer day. Will definitely be back. read more

Fantastic service, amazing beers with a variety of brews that aren't common. The stouts and saisons are killer. The space is filled with trippy art. The beertender was generous about letting me try different styles and gave good recs. I was here on a rainy summer day and it felt great to have a beer with the garage door wide open watching the rain fall. Cool names, funky styles, if you're looking for a non generic brewery, this is the place. read more

I had a most excellent time here at Vision Quest about a month ago. In the heat of summer, I was so disappointed with Avery I thought there must be a better way in Boulder. I looked up nearby breweries and saw this pop up. Glad I did! I loved the sour in the taster glass, notes of raspberries were perfect. The peanut butter stout was great as well, definitely kicked my butt good. Love the atmosphere and scenery inside, reminds me of a hippy den! Love the low down chill vibe, I'd be here all the time if I lived in Boulder. Can't wait to come back soon! read more

We were visiting from Massachusetts and this brewery was highly recommended. We went in there on a Saturday evening. The parking lot was a little crowded but we finally got into the bar. They had live music playing. We got our beers. They had a space jam sour that I got and I really liked it. I rated it 4.5 on Untapped. But overall, it seemed like an okayish place. The beertender couldn't offer a lot of suggestions and we couldn't get any tasting. They had well designed apparel and attire and glasses, but I wasn't feeling it. I really have to get in on the place to buy it, We had our beers and then left. Rating is going to be 50% for beer, 30% for service and 20% for everything else. Beer: 4 stars @ 50% = 2 Service: 2 stars @ 30% = 0.6 Everything else/location and general: 3 stars@ 20% = 0.6 3.2, rounding to 3.0. read more

Cool brewery with a different vibe. Good beer and good music set the right scene to enjoy a pint on a hot summer day.

Nice brewery to stop by after a hike. Staff seemed a bit frustrated about being out of things and did not provide the best customer service. Which I completely understand..totally sucks when things aren't running smoothly. The beers were good, the price was decent. Wish there was music playing in the background and wish they had the AC running. It was hotter than hell. read more

Excellent beer selection to be found here ! Top notch service beat my expectations by a mile. Love the vibes very chilled out scene.

Best beer in town, chill ambiance, interesting people, friendly bar tenders, they are good at more than just IPA's although they kill it at the hazys. Lately, since it is the summer, I have been more into craft lager, and the lagers at vision quest are so crisp and refreshing, they will make your brain tingle. Stop on in and get yourself a few. read more

Love this local gem. It's off the beaten path so finding it is a treat all in itself. Offerings are sublime and sometimes the music playlist is straight from my teenage dreams. Parking is plentiful. Seating options include indoor and outdoor with enough spots to accommodate a group of 20+ Restroom is tiny and there's only one, so it could be a situation whenever it gets packed. But I wouldn't know... read more

Some friends and I were on a quest for some beer. Pedaling away, the vision appeared on the horizon and we rejoiced. Okay. I'll be honest. Vision Quest Brewery isn't much to look at on the outside but it's fun on the inside. Games, music, more stickers than you can count. Crazy beers (or at least the names) and there's nothing wrong with that. I'd recommend something but who knows if it'll be on tap when you arrive. Instead, I'd recommend checking this place out and the others in the immediate vicinity while you're at it. No driving required, though a little stumbling may be in order if you overdo it at Vision Quest. read more

Went here on recommendation of a hop culture article. The beers were solid but not mind blowing. The tap room was full of flies the day we were here, with one guy sitting at the bar with a fly swatter (!?) which was annoying and semi-gross. The bartender was very nice and super attentive read more

Come on over and visit 'Fat Patrick'(who is not even close to fat BTW). Whether it is day drinking or in the evening this place is serving up SMILES & SUNSHINE in the middle of a Boulder industrial area. Honestly, I don't even drink beer that much, but Patrick had me sample a few before I found my new fave: Bad Dad Jokes. COMPLETELY REFRESHING with Bad Daddy's Texas BBQ delights, especially the luscious brisket, juicy pork ribs & the smoked mac & cheese. I'd get there soon before all the food and drinks are gone!!! read more

Small, delicious brewery just on the edge of town. They were following Covid protocol stuff. More importantly they are pouring really good beers. The beertender who helped me out with some selections guided me the right way. I'll be back when I'm in Boulder again for sure. read more

Open mic night on Wednesday... make sure to get there by 7:00p to sign up and showcase your talent. If you're a craft beer lover you will like the interesting spin on some of their brews. Not a craft beer lover, they have some tasty kombucha on tap also. VQ is fairly small but delivers a one two punch when it comes to creativity. read more

Went here on a Saturday afternoon right when they opened. When we walked in there were about 6 people at the bar. We stood at the bar for about 5-10 minutes looking at the menu and waiting for a bartender cause there was none behind the bar. As we were waiting one of the people sitting at the bar got up and poured himself a beer and then started to walk past us then turned around and asked us if we needed something. We asked for some tasters. Then we saw another bartender come from the back. Beers were decent. IPA and Porter were good. After the people at the bar left the bartender working then came over to see how we liked the beers. Not the best customer service. Decent beers but nothing special. Seems like you have to be friends with the bartender to get service. read more

We love this place! It's THE MOST HIPPIE PLACE in Boulder for sure. They have pretty good beers but our favorite thing they do is their kombucha and alcoholic Jun. love the atmosphere and staff here too! read more

Went in on a Wednesday night and there was live music. Limited seating there as the brewery itself is pretty small. They do all smaller batch brews, so you can try a lot of different and unique beers. Field trip to the exasperated worm farm was my favorite beer. The sours aren't too sour so don't be afraid to try one! The artwork really makes this place unique. We picked up a tasting glass with their artwork on it to add to our collection, and it'll definitely stand out. read more

Vision Quest is a great brewery! It's on the smaller side and has less options than some of the more well-known places around Boulder, but their beer is great and the bartender who served us was friendly and helpful. I had a great IPA and my friend had a sour- the sour was amazing! Definitely try their fruitier beers when you come, that seems like their speciality. The ambience was nice and the walls had some cool murals to fit the theme. Our bartender also gave us a sticker when we asked. They have a selection of board games and pinball as well. The only downside would be that it can be a little hard to find and get to, but the minor hassle is definitely worth it. A must try in Boulder! read more

Nothing fancy as far as the facility, but overall uniquely authentic, with an outstanding range of very well-crafted beer. We visited at a relatively quiet time and received some nice personal attention with tastes of a small special staff-brewed barrel that had just been tapped, as well as a lively, friendly and knowledgable beer discussion. Have been back twice since! read more

Loved the unique variety of beer!! Also the bartender was amazing and really helpful with describing the beer! I recommend!

Well, I'd be lying if I said I feel welcome. I don't get more than two words from either employee and my thank you's don't even get a nod of the head. Not to mention the two employees (one presumably the owner) have went to the back leaving me alone, only to come around the corner every few minutes to seem extremely annoyed that I am still sitting here. Perhaps I don't fit their preferred cliental. Or maybe they are just having a bad day. Either way, I am pretty surprised to see it's got nothing but awesome reviews. Maybe it's just me... On a less personal note: Definitely give the Coconut IPA a try. I must admit, it might be my favorite IPA yet. Based on the experience alone I would give this place 1 star, if that damn IPA weren't so gosh darn good. read more
