There's no better brewery in Fort Collins. There are more popular and more fancy breweries, but not any better beers! The helles is probably the best beer in Colorado! read more

Tasty beer, great outdoor beer garden, and friendly service! Love the selection of traditional beer styles and they offer several sized pours as well. read more

Zwei Brewing - Breweries Near Me - Fort Collins, Colorado

Authentic German beer. The Vienna is my favorite. My friends love the stouts and porters. Finely crafted. I have to respect these guys for going back to very traditional beers, rather than some of the beers of the moment. At least my eyes were attracted to the German beers. They do have a large selection and something to please anyone. Different food truck each night, of course. Many outside tables with benches, real German Biergarten tables. Super nice staff. There is a sweet dog at each table, very dog friendly, gotta love that, Fünf-Sterne read more

German beers!! This lager lovin' girl was happy. We stopped in for a quick pint. The Dunkel was on point! My husband enjoyed what could possibly be the best hopped Pilsner we have ever encountered. They have plenty of parking. There is seating inside and outside. They have food trucks on their schedule. We did not have time to partake but it looked like a good one that day. We will most definitely be back. Prost! read more

Best German beer I've had that was brewed west of the Rhine... and before the Danube :-). Love all the flowers in the patio garden. My first sip of their Helles 10 years ago took me straight back to Munich. I was blown away. It's the only brewery in town I visit anymore. When newbies ask which beer they should get, I always tell them: "there's 20 or so listed on the board up there, and they're all excellent." So wonderful to have these excellent German beers brewed right here in Fort Collins. read more

Easy going vibe. Plenty of places to sit, in or out. DOG friendly. Service is great, friendly beer tenders who can pour when a crowd. Kirk and Erik have nailed the beer...I'm thrilled as it's not a menu of hoppy IPAs but have a nice variety of flavorful beer. My favorite spot! No kitchen, but usually a food truck, and snacks. read more

Everything about Zwei if off-the-charts incredible. The beer, the staff, the atmosphere, the owners, the clientele (especially the regulars!) Stop by for a beer... you will not be sorry!!! read more

This place has the most authentic and amazing German beers! IMO, they are literally the best German brewery in the state of CO, by far. I personally really enjoy the Hefeweizen and the Vienna the most, but they make so many fabulous beers! The service is great, the patio is nice and the food trucks are pretty good as well. But the beer, OMG it is so good!! read more

We stopped in to 'try a local beer' while we were in town and what a find! Their Oktoberfest is the best I've ever had - it's brewed in limited quantities and the bartender said it would go fast - for good reason! Their lager is great too. Dogs are welcome, everyone is friendly, the bartenders are knowledgeable and helpful. This brewery is one of the best I've visited. read more

Been here a bunch of times since I first did a review 6 years ago. Best German beers in the state. Great size patio. Good amount of tables inside. Good amount of beers to select from. They usually have a food truck. They do sell Crowlers. Bartenders are always friendly and attentive. A great atmosphere. They do have some "American style beers" like IPAs and sours. This probably my top 2-3 places I love going in Fort Collins. Cheers! read more

Loved Zwei, everything except the line to get beer. We were there on a friday, so it was busy. Schwarzbier and the Cherry Mango sour were the two we tried. Both were delicious. Food truck was doublewide, which was also awesome. Loved the whole vibe. Will definitely be back! read more

Loved this place - great beer garden setting with outstanding German beers - people were awesome and there is a food truck most evenings.

Absolute perfection. Everything at Zwei is simple, no-nonsense and straight to the point. No weird additives, no gimmicky names. It's just good beer. Bathroom is clean, counter can be a little busy but no excessive wait. Grab a flight of anything German style. If you're a true beer fan, you won't be disappointed. read more

My 1st stop on a previous Colorado beercation! Conveniently located on Old Town, right in the alley adjacent to the new lovely, boutique Elizabeth Hotel. Zwei is a very chill place and felt like a neighborhood pub. The staff and other patrons were all very friendly and accommodating with service and recommendations. Zwei's actual Brewery is located in Denver, so I would call this a Tap House. Very nice craft brew. Cheers! read more

The bartenders are extremely nice here. The beer is great, and I'm not even a German beer guy (my preference is really nasty gas station IPAs that taste like battery acid). Most weekdays around noon it's quiet enough to sit and read, which is what I usually do. The Friday nights and Saturday nights I've been here, it's always popping, though there's enough seating if you walk around and look. I really like their stouts, IPAs, and their Hefeweizen (depending on what you're feeling). They also have some snacks-the chips and salsa are actually good (you don't have to believe me, but their salsa is locally-sourced), and some pre-bagged popcorn (the white cheddar is great). There's others, but those are the only two I've tried. Just highly recommend all around. read more

Excellent beer....plenty of indoor and outdoor seating....food truck available....well behaved dogs....it's all good! Cheers! read more

Wonderful, clean, German Lagers. This is a warehouse-style brewery with a great patio and plenty of parking. The servers are friendly and knowledgeable about all the beer styles and know exactly what to recommend. We enjoyed all the traditional German styles we tried. Lagers can be challenging to make in CO, but these guys do them well. read more

Thoroughly enjoyed this spot! The inside feels like a German brewery and the service is so friendly. All the beers we tried were delicious! I got a taster and was able to try quite a few. I don't think you can go wrong. read more

Zwei Brewing - Prickly Passion sour and the Willy Nelson west coast IPA - Breweries Near Me - Fort Collins, Colorado

Yet another great brewery addition to the Fort Collins brewing community. Zwei is German styled beer and with that element really adds a unique touch to the brewing scene here in town. At Zwei I had the Stilted Stout which was fantastic! I mean that was a really good stout! I wanted to try more of their beer and will in the future when I am back but due to my evening out which comprised of doing a brewery tour around town I stuck to just the stout. The atmosphere is fun and they have a really good looking patio for when it is warm out to hang out at. I will indeed be returning and will want to try some of those lagers that they have! read more

Zwei Brewing - My totally awesome beer at Zwei! - Breweries Near Me - Fort Collins, Colorado

Cool little brewery if you like traditional German style beer this is a solid place to check out

Friendly lively atmosphere and great German style beers! Especially liked the Northern German Pilsner.

Stopped here on the way back from a hike at Lory State Park... Not a lot of pics yet on Yelp to help gauge what we'd find, though. You know I fixed that though, lol. Glad we stopped. Such a cool find. With all the craft breweries that Colorado can offer a thirsty soul, it's always awesome to find a place that's spacious, clean, has a dog friendly outdoor area, great food (via food trucks) and good beer. I'm an "attention to details" kinda girl and really appreciated the time and effort that went into the interior and exterior decor. Well done... Contemporary yet cozy. And any place that has Christmas tree light in the tree outside... points! I took lots of pics to show you, too. Mellow atmosphere, great beer selection and good service. Yes, please. We'll be back! read more

Zwei is a great place to hangout on a nice day. They have a good size patio with an extra large Jenga and a ping pong table. There is always a food truck outside. The staff is awesome - they remember us and what we order, even after we haven't been in for months. The beer is great! I LOVE that they keep the ladies restroom stocked with free tampons, and not the cheapest ones either. I do wish though that the restroom stalls didn't have two inch gaps between the door where they lock so everyone can easily see in the stall. Overall, awesome brewery, definitely recommended! read more

Stopped by on our bikes. I asked if they had ciders. The lady at the bar was rude. We won't be back.

It's always fun to find a spot that makes me think I'm across the pond in Europe, and this place does exactly that. I tried the Dunkel and was transported back to Munchen. There is a great patio that was filled with dogs and their beer loving owners. read more

Zwei Brewing - Dunked and Willie Nelson IPA - Breweries Near Me - Fort Collins, Colorado

Zwei is a smaller brewery in Fort Collins that specializes in German style lagers and weissbeer, though they do make some Belgium and American styles as well. The beertenders are super friendly and very accommodating. The only beer I was able to drink here was the Willy Nelson IPA from their Indigenous selection, as I was battling a wicked hangover from too much fun on our first day in Colorado the day before. N00b status, I know. Even the Greek food truck outside wouldn't have saved me that day. Their Continental beer selections include more of the German style brews, which my husband and our friends really enjoyed. Both the Continental and Indigenous selections have about ten beers or so, so there's definitely something for everyone to try and enjoy. The interior has a large merch section, a self-service water station, and plenty of bar, table, and outdoor seating. There decor boasts gorgeous woodwork and modern lighting. I look forward to returning, minus the hangover. read more

One of my top three in Colorado. If you like traditional Euro-centric brewing arts- wherein beer tastes like beer- by all means give Zwei a visit. Simply exceptional beers and nice folks who know their beer. A lovely taproom with cool flags and signs. The location in what is basically a high retail/strip mall-type area is easily accessible, but the outdoor space perhaps suffers in the aesthetic realm as such. Nevertheless, you are there to drink quality beer, and quality beer you shall drink. The quality conversation is up to you and your fine drinking partners. Enjoy. read more

Amazing beer selection with a great patio! Love how it's hidden and down to earth. Staff is chill and knowledgeable.

Zwei is hands down the best craft brewery in Fort Collins. 1) first and foremost the beer is great. From Indigenous to Continental menus the brews are among best in town. 2) staff are exceptional - friendly, no turnover and they know the business well and take care of you 3) atmosphere is awesome! Hard to find a more fun place to chill with a brew Lastly, brothers Kirk and Eric are face of this business and take their time to do it right, and are respected by employees, customers and colleagues read more

these boys know how to brew tasty beer and also help the rest of us understand what we might expect flavor wise with postings of IBU units per brew. I was able to speak with one of the owners and his main take was " all our people are co- owners". refreshing in todays climate. ill patronize them anytime im in FTC . read more

This is one of my favorite breweries anywhere. I'm a big fan of their Weiss beer and I think it is the best example of a Weiss beer that I've had anywhere. All of their beers are good though and they have lots of variety of styles. read more

Large selection of brews in a pleasant indoor/outdoor setting. Seething for every beer taste.

If you have an aversion to plane flight and foreign cultures, but still want to experience what beer tastes like from Germany, this is your best bet. There are countless breweries that aim to replicate the experience of a wheat beer in the US, and 93% of them fall short. Zwei Brewing knocks it out of the park! They capture it all: the banana notes, the clove, the bubble gum, the mouth feel. I used to live in Munich, and the Weissbier (wheat), and Dunkles Weissbier (dark wheat beer) both brought me back to taps at the local restaurant or biergarten. The staff is friendly and accommodating, the biergarten is inviting, and the beer is the most authentic I've had on American soil. Well done, Zwei! read more

Very cool brewery. We stopped by here after a day in Rocky Mountain National Park before heading to our hotel for the evening. This definitely seems to be the happy hour spot for the locals - we were there on a Thursday and the place was PACKED! Although parking initially looks to be limited (don't park in the fast food Italian restaurant next door unless you want to be towed!), there's plenty of parking in the WalMart parking lot just next door and a quick 30 second walk to the main entrance. Although it was packed, there were more than enough bartenders working, so it took no time at all to get our drinks. Plenty of different types of beer to choose from - I got the double IPA which was very good. Prices were also reasonable. Although there are many breweries in the area that distribute nationally, do yourself a favor and stop by this place to see how the locals do it in Colorado. read more

Zwei is one of my favorite breweries!! They have great, no frills, German beer that is sooooo tasty. There is a great variety of beers. Everything from light Wheats to heavy IPAs to dark stouts... everyone can find something to enjoy. They also have a great choice of sizes. You can get small tasters, half pint, full pints, and even the big German mugs if there is a beer you particularly enjoy. There is indoor and outdoor seating. The patio is fairly large and seating isn't usually an issue. There are board games to play or you can just enjoy good conversation at your table. Bathrooms are clean. Lots of good merchandise (shirts, glasses, etc) and you can get crowlers or growlers of beer to go. Service is great and everyone is friendly and happy to talk about beer. Even when it is busy, the bartenders do a good job of keeping the line moving. Don't forget to check out the food truck schedule before you go! They have a great lineup of trucks that stop by and will serve you food while you enjoy your beer. read more

Zwei Brewing - Taster tray - Breweries Near Me - Fort Collins, Colorado

We have been waiting to visit Zwei Brewing as it is a highly recommended brewery in Fort Collins. We finally made it up there to check it out and couldn't be happier. We tried a sampler of their German beers and another of some specialties. Our bartender was incredible. She helped us find a table and described all of the beers to help us out. The service was excellent and she even came by to check on how the beers were tasting. The beers are amazing, environment is great, and service is grade A. Make sure you try the Helles and ask for Stasha the bartender! read more
