Top 5 Breweries in Golden, Colorado (CO)
Golden is the Home Rule Municipality that is the county seat of Jefferson County, Colorado, United States. Golden lies along Clear Creek at the base of the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains. Founded during the Pike's Peak Gold Rush on June 16, 1859, the mining camp was originally named Golden City in honor of Thomas L. Golden. Golden City served as the capital of the provisional Territory of Jefferson from 1860 to 1861, and capital of the official Territory of Colorado from 1862 to 1867. In 1867, the territorial capital was moved about 12 miles (19 km) east to Denver City. The United States Census Bureau estimates that the city population was 18,867 in 2010.

this was a late july trek to the high plains for a red rock adventure. the weather was outstanding. this little gem is an easy walk from the the main strip in golden. parking is easy here. the folks here are super nice and informative. we even had a quick, 1/2 hour brew tour. the beers are great. i tried 4 of them. the wall of hops is amazing and quite a great landscaping feature. the simple courtyard promoted a little shade and a perfect place to eat. if you're hungry, a food truck is parked out front and it was delicious. i spent a tad bit of time inside, but this time of year, why bother.

We were at the new Barrels and Bottles Brewpub, not their downtown older facility, which is newly opened and starting up after COVID restrictions are easing. Very festive atmosphere. Great beer selection for me and wine for my wife. Loved the live music. Staff was extremely friendly and efficient. We will certainly return and look forward to seeing and experiencing the expanded food menu.

We are the only dedicated, gluten-free brewing facility in the state of Colorado. That means not one gluten-containing ingredient enters our doors, so there is never a chance.Gluten-Free beer can taste amazing. The key to the deliciousness of our beer is high-quality ingredients and knowledgeable employees. We use the finest locally sourced, malted, gluten-free grains as the base for our beers

This was our first stop during a trip to Denver- and it was the perfect place to start our trip. The view was incredible and we loved the beer. There was a ton of seating outside- I can imagine it’s packed during the summer months. Definitely kid and dog friendly.

My husband is a Colorado native but he has never brought me here! We had a great time, beginning with the free parking, free shuttle, little tour of Golden, then to the brewery where you take a self guided tour with a hand held recorder at your own pace. The brewery is clean, big, open and FUN. The staff is very friendly and the bonus is the free samples in their bar area! Admission is $5 for locals and $10 for out of state residents. Well worth it! Oh, and you get a free Coors glass at the end! Well done!
