Tag you know anything of Argonaut? I honestly just tossed it out there as I've heard good things but I've never set foot inside.Falling Rock is great but I'd say only if you go during non-evening/happy hour times. It gets BUSY and when that happens the service isn't all that great. It can be frustrating IMO. Particularly if you are ordering off the bottle list and they have to go hunting for a bottle. Now get there at 2PM on a Tuesday when they are bored they're more than happy to spend 10 minutes hunting through the cellar for your requests.I would suggest stopping at the Falling Rock Tap House in Denver. 1919 Blake just 1/2 block from the baseball field. They have 70 taps and hundreds of bottles.The Great Northern Tavern is also a brewpub in Keystone https://www.gntavern.com/

Well there you go. Can't say I ever looked for their beer outside the brewery.Not true. Yesterday I saw some Wynkoop cans at Incredibles in DTC.
I never had to show my card, I just asked if they have a discount for AHA members and they gave it to me. Best of all it's off the whole bill not just your order. You could bring an issue of Zymurgy to be safe but chances are if they really challenged you, you'd have to take it to one of the brewers to get the discount since I doubt the wait staff has any clue what Zymurgy means.Dillon Dam has a discount for AHA members.. I am a member, but can't find my card. Will an issue of zymurgy do?

The waitress I had there once didnt know what AHA was, so I had to show her the card. She had to take it back to the manager to figure out what was up.I never had to show my card, I just asked if they have a discount for AHA members and they gave it to me.

to elaborate on this, you may see some craft beer at a supermarket but its only going to be 3.2% and it's going to be water like.Don't expect to find any wine or good beer at a supermarket, like in FL. You have to go to a liquor store.

What DaBearSox said about Argonaut. They have a big store with a better than average selection, but not really great. It helps that it is between work and home.Yeah, definitely pass on the Falling Rock if there is a Rockies game. But if you go to a Rockies game check out the SandLot brewery downstairs. That's where they keep all the good stuff.A new favorite pub of mine is the Rackhouse Pub. It's just a block from the Alameda and I-25 interchange. The same building where Stranahan's whiskey is made. They have 20 taps of Colorado brews and pretty good food too.Tag you know anything of Argonaut?

+1Can't believe I forgot about that place. I drive past it every day on my way home and am always looking for an excuse to stop there!A new favorite pub of mine is the Rackhouse Pub.
