Westbound has a very chilled, and intimate atmosphere both inside and outside. It is tucked off a main road downtown within an outdoor mall area. They have a good selection of beer on tap (no flights) and I enjoy their Inifinity Pilsner the most. Seltzers were on offer, and if I remember correctly so was wine. It's got an odd layout as seats are scattered over different levels and different areas inside. Outside there is a small patio area which when I visited I didn't take advantage of as it was pouring with rain. No kitchen, just snack foods on offer so I wouldn't recommend this spot to eat at, but it would be a great pre drinking spot before moving on to another location.

Very good nice selection, but nothing is sweet. They don’t have anything very girly for sure. It’s all dries and earthy flavors. They do have one cider but it is not flavored so it does have a little bit of a bitter aftertaste. But a really cool outside seating area and it is very air-conditioned inside thank goodness.

A nice little brewery in a cute alley in Downtown Denver. They have some different craft beers, hard tea and ciders. It's on a great location because you can get food from the milk market as well. Great vibes

You walk in and order beer from what seems to be a hotel reception desk and then have some of the more neat sitting spaces to relax in you could ask for. The beers were great and they have a killer hard tea. Enjoyable experience and unique as can be.
