At the time of my writing this, they have $1 beers for an hour around lunch. How can I give anything leas than 5 stars for that? The beer is decent too. Not mind blowing, but even for the normal price, it s decent.

I bought a 6 pack of the Sheamus Amber Ale at King Soopers and the beer tastes good. I don't know if Crazy Mountain is force carbonating, or using a primer to carbonate, but 4 of the 6 beers in that 6 pack were WAY over carbonated. It was like drinking an Alca-Seltzer. The first one I opened went all over the kitchen. I tried to chug the second one and looked like a rabid dog with foam coming out of all of my facial orphasis. With the next 2 I was able to pour it into 2 glasses and wait for 20 minutes for the foam to settle, then combine them and drink. I would recommend these bottles as a great party prank when you're stuck at a party hosted by your wife's friends and their husbands that spend the whole evening talking about college football and their "glory days" of second string varsity high school football. Otherwise, take it easy on the carbonation there Crazy Mountain... The beer is delicious.

Horrible Service, Bad Food, and mediocre beer.

Horrible Service, Bad Food, and mediocre beer.

I was happy another brewery took over this space after Breckenridge moved to their new location. However, I was unbelievably disappointed with just about everything about my visit.

First, it was a Saturday evening and the place was medium busy. There were several open tables but the first thing the waitress says to us is that she's slammed and behind. Um, the place is not that big and was not even full, how could you consider this "slammed"??? Then, when we could finally have her attention to order, she was condescending and rude.

We ended up ordering the sampler appetizer to start and check out the BBQ. First, my chicken wings were cold, practically ICE cold! Guess they just pulled them out of the fridge and felt it was not even necessary to pretend to heat them up. The ribs were super charred, which I can like, but resulted in them being totally dried out. We had planned to order dinner but after the poor appetizer and the lackluster beer, it was time to go and enjoy our evening someplace better.

Then there is the Beer. I have been to over 100 craft breweries in Colorado alone. So I was excited to try Crazy Mountain's beers as I have not had a chance to visit their original Edwards location. We got a flight to sample a few, before selecting a beer, and were just underwhelmed by all of them. None were interesting, memorable, or unique. I feel like I've basically had all these at other breweries.

At 0 for 3, we for sure will not be returning.

I haven't really experienced the whole place/menu because I only came for a Yelp event, but I actually really liked how clean and pretty the place is! It's a cute place to do a get-together or come with a couple of friends to chill. I definitely want to go back and see more of it!

Good beer. Lots of choices. They don t serve food and food trucks are only here on the weekends. The beer garden is nice. If you need a cold beverage this is a good place to stop but I wouldn t call this a destination.

If you are on the "craft Beer taproom Tour" then make this one of your stops. They have a nice venue, warm and welcoming - cool vibe. As you enter you met by the main fixture, which is their bar top. They happen to be off the main drag (but not too far at all) so you have to take a bit of a detour to get to them, I'd say it's worth it.

The place has a refreshing atmosphere and is clean and well kept.

They have a good selection of beers on tap and the ones we sampled (about 9 4oz/5oz flight) were very good and enjoyable.

There was a new bartender training and she was really charismatic, friendly and just full of energy it made the experience all the better!

I like this place a lot. I used to be attached to Breckenridge Brewery when it was at this location. Whenever I was driving within a 2 mile radius of Brek, I made a point of hitt'n it for a pint. Now I do that for a Crazy Mountain brew.

On Monday - Friday between 12 noon and 1:00, they offer the year-round brews for a buck, as in $1.00. Best deal in town. My preference is the Horseshoes and Hand grenades on nitro. It's a very respectable ESB style brew.

Dig it. Drink it.

Ooooh ooooh... one more thing! Growler fills of the core brews are only $5 on Sundays! Crazy! Right?!

Only stopped in for a quick beer, but they have really good stuff and the staff is super nice. They have the requisite industrial decor, but it doesn't feel forced, if that makes sense. Definitely worth a stop.

I've been a fan of CMBC's beer, particularly their 'Lawyers, Guns & Money' Barley Wine which in answer to my prayers, was put out in a can.
Naturally I was excited when they took over Breck's former brewery on Klamath after they moved south to 'In Bev Acres.'
I'm sure CMBC will prosper there and produce some stellar brews. Well worth your time for a visit.

Middle of the road on everything.

Middle of the road on everything.

After this little brewery took over the previous breck brewery, it's patrons had high hopes that they would remodel, upgrade, and bring something good to the neighborhood.

What they delivered: same.

Same bbq, same dingy environment that makes you feel like you need to wash your hands after walking around, same green awnings out front.

Your beer packaging designs are exceptional - maybe your tap room should be too?

Great place for a wide variety of beers, I liked the sours the best. There was live music while we were there and beer that you could purchase to take home as well as snacks. Staff was really friendly and offered samples on all of the beers I had questions on. Overall great experience!

In all honesty their beer was decent but the food and service was horrible. This was my second attempt to eat here because the first I was told the kitchen was closed on a Saturday afternoon. I had to ask multiple times for a water and the server seemed to be inconvenienced by me even being there. When the food came out, it was cold and dry, by far the worst brisket I have ever been served. The salmon was luke warm to the point where I thought it was designed to be served that way, it wasn't. I will never return and doubt that it will be open much longer unless something changes.

This location has nothing on their original location in Edwards, CO. Even though Breckenridge moved out everything here still tastes like Breckenridge beer? And if you've tried ANY other breweries around Denver, you would know Breckenridge is basic, uninspired and uninteresting beer. This new location is definitely a step back for Crazy Mountain and has damaged my opinion of them.

Forgot all the water at our table. Saw the manager come in and got onto customers since their toddlers were moving around, and she was rude about it. If you have kids, stay away or be prepared to get yelled at and deal with that stigma even more.

Beer was good, mac was average. Service was terrible unfortunately. Took forever to get a water, and when my friend ordered a flight it took an extra 20 minutes to arrive. Definitely gonna try it out again, maybe it was a bad night?

Did a brewery vacation in Denver and, after drinking a lot of beers at many locations, I felt these guys have the best beer in the Denver/Boulder area. Quality ran consistent in all styles. Service was a bit lacking at times but the beer was solid. I will make it a point to down a couple again at Crazy Mountain when I return to Denver!

In from out of town, thought it would be a cool place to check out. Seeing as how they re only open for 4 hours a week you d think they would abide by those hours or have a sign posted. Nope. As I approached the building a man in the window looked at me and walked away, and the doors were locked after 12p.

Surprised there are any positive reviews at all with it being operated this way.

Great space, I love the windows peeking in to the brew room. Great happy hour prices - $3 beers for almost anything on their tap list. Try the pilsner or nitro rotator for something heavier. Parking could be better, and like most of Denver, the signs are confusing.

Great beer, great service. Big shout out to their best bartender, Hannah. She poured me a sour ale with a perfect head while fighting off a bear with her other hand. Top notch, all American speak easy. 10/10, would drink here again.

Beer is good. Lots to choose from (about 24) and like others have said- the happy hour is probably close to the best in the city (3.00 beers for their regular beers (12 options...red ale, coffee stout, belgian, few pales, few IPAs, amber, wit, etc.) 3 stars only due to the fact that there has only been ONE bartender working all 4 times i've been here. There are probably 35-40 people here and there is only ONE person working the bar during happy hour. I see 4-5 different employees wandering about but not helping on bar. Seems like its managed from a distance. Both bathrooms out of paper towels- those kinda things that closer/better management would change. But if longer wait times between brews provides for a 3.00/beer broad selection happy hour then its def worth it!

Also- AMAZING outdoor area thats finally open! Worth a stop in the S. Broadway area if you're hitting up Trve, Baer, Banded Oak, or Black Sky

The beers are decent. Service is good. The barbecue is good. What was majorly disappointing is the food portions are seriously weak. What they call a "platter" is much better described as a small plate. For what you pay, the portion size is super pathetic. If you go, drink the beer but skip the food and eat somewhere else.

Pilsner 4.9abv very good ; MtnLvg Pale Ale 5.7abv all bitter Zero floral ; this location is the old Brecknridge BP; no growler fill at bar; no WiFi; no bike parking; no patio; service really needs to learn multitasking; impression is of a place that really does not have it together.

Went here for some good local craft beer and live music. Atmosphere was great and the beer was excellent! Lots of beer variety, the staff was knowledgeable on their beer and very friendly. Will go back again!

I recently visited Crazy Mountain for their lunch happy hour and got $1 beers. Such a good deal! And after a few beers, I may have spent too much money on their merch...it's just all so cute and comfortable. Definitely check it out!
