Nice selection of beers. Riverside summer ale has a surprisingly fruity flavor that doesn't take away from the beer. Irish red ale was very well balanced and appropriate for the style. Staff was courteous and room was very family friendly ( ie games for kids).
Average brew. Vanilla Porter is a good choice. Little brew shop that is good to stop by on a week day afternoon.
Small garage setup with seating in the parking lot. They suffer from some very serious quality control issues. Maybe some people really do like buttery Kolsch and acidic Porter? I'm not trying to be mean, but they really do brew some of the worst beer in Colorado, and in general.
Great experience! Nice little bar area and HUGE game room area for adults and kids that has garage style doors to allow open air feel, and a patio . I must admit I am not a beer aficionado but I found all the ones we tried were very very good. DO NOT PASS UP THE Rustic Red it is awesome. We selected a Black Porter that was rich yet refreshing. The other two beers (IPA and Lager) were nice, but the Red and the Porter were our favorite. Staff was friendly, engaging and knowledgeable. We were there on a Saturday afternoon and sat on the patio. The bartender told us they were going to have live music (jazz band) the next day and so we adjusted our plans for the weekend to come back and boy were we not disappointed! GREAT BAND , more Rustic Red. We played cards and just jammed to the great tunes! What a nice little laid back place. So glad we read the reviews and tried this place. Cheers! PS - I wish I knew the name of the band, because they too were AWESOME.
Great spot with some delicious and unique beers. Peach Basil!? Try it. Also has toys and space for kids.
Cozy, cool patio. Lots of food trucks (waffle lab), including monthly food truck festivals. Newly expanded tap room. Friendly staff (harass steve if he's there). Occasionally excellent beers.
This is a great brewery and a fabulous hang out. Real people and great beer. The Rustic red and Mount Massive imperial IPA are my favorites.
I love Pateros Creek. The crew is super friendly and fun... they create the feel of a true neighborhood bar. They have a wonderful trivia scene on Thursdays (and a regular Thursday night food truck with a rotating menu that is the most amazing culinary secret in this town).
They are also one of the most creative breweries in the city. They had a beer called Boo-Berry Ale on their rotating outlaw tap that floored me (yes, it was made with the cereal) and I had a coffee-infused version of their seasonal Vaquero that was just killer, one of the best beers I've had in Fort Collins. Not all of their experiments land, it's true, but they'll let you try a free taster of anything if you ask. For the less adventurous there are five solid beers - the legends - that are always on hand.
Bear Shark!
Awesome malty beers. Cool little nook. Board games are available. Try the PBR (peanut brittle beer) and the peach blonde.
Okay... So anyone giving this brewery more than 2 stars has 0 taste buds and doesn't know crap about craft brewing (microbreweries). I come here in a brewer/bar rotation with my beer group because 1 guy out of 6 of us likes this place, so we do it for him. Like Michael James has said, their beers has a serious quality control problem. Moreover, their beers are very bland and there is absolutely nothing exciting about their beers. They are still making the same stuff as they always have been. At least that was the case a few months ago when I was in there. For the longest time they didn't even have the garage for extra seating. They sell their beer cheaper than everyone else, as they should because it's not quality beer like New Belgium, Odell's, Funkwerks, etc. They make a cheap bland beer that you can get drunk off from and just about every college student in Fort Collins appreciates that.
