W is for Woods Boss Brewing Company

If you're following along, you may remember that I the SheppyBrew Beer Model and I visited Vail Brewing Company to knock out "V" in our "A to Z Denver Breweries Project".

Vail Brewing Company isn't really a local brewery, but there were not really a whole lot of choices close to Denver.

And, it was local to where we were when we visited.

Anyway ... 

As you may or may not know ... 

After "V" comes the letter "W", and so we had to find a brewery that starts with the letter "W".

There were actually a couple of local options for "W" breweries in the Denver area.

Last Saturday, we packed up a lunch, got on our bikes, and headed down the bike trails to downtown Denver.

It was a wonderful day for a bike ride. Warm, but not windy and not as ridiculously hot compared to most of the recent weekends.

Woods Boss Brewing Company is located in the heart of downtown Denver at

2210 California Street, Denver, Colorado 80205

It is a great location, but if you're like SheppyBrew Beer Model , who doesn't like riding around traffic, it can be a little nerve-racking. 

Denver has some decent cycling infrastructure with quite a few separated bike lanes, but apparently the route I picked didn't take full advantage of those once we got to downtown.

But, we made it. 

My pictures don't do the taproom justice. It is gorgeous with ornate woodwork. Even with the social distancing protocols, it seems to have a decent amount of space. 

Since it was such a nice day, we picked a table outside and had our lunch with beers.

The beers were delicious. Having to ride home 20 miles, we didn't eat or drink a whole lot, but the beers we had were great.

They don't serve food, but there are lots of to-go options in the area including a restaurant right next door.

If you find yourself in Downtown Denver wanting a craft beer or two, I certainly endorse the brewery.
