beer to-go
Anytime, anywhere, grab these beers to take with you, have them delivered to your door, or enjoy them on draft at any of our tap rooms.

Lowrider Lite - 4.8% ABV
Slow, easy, and low. It represents so many of the things we love: classic American cars, long weekends, baseball, fireworks, barbecues... life in general. Lowrider Lite was created for those occasions when it’s time to check out from responsibility, and check in to what matters most. It’s just a good old fashioned crushable, yellow, American beer. Something you can drink all day, any day - any reason, any season.

Lowrider Lime - 4.8% ABV
Inspired by south-of-the-border imports, and the good times we’ve had pounding beers on the beach, Lowrider Lime is designed to be an all-day, crushable thirst quencher. Unlike other domestic counterparts, we use real limes that we hand-zest, and Celtic Sea Salt to give this lite beer a real, authentic, cerveza-style taste that can’t be found in any other beer, domestic or import. Fill your cooler and enjoy a little mental Mexican vacation, 12oz at a time.

Fireside Scottish - 7.4% ABV
Backcountry bonfire with buddies, or patio fire pit with neighbors and friends, this smooth and smoky ale is the perfect companion. Fireside is something that stokes embers of enjoyment and miles of smiles. It’s not meant to be consumed alone, rather it’s the perfect partner to whisky being passed around or s’mores being hoarded.

Sam's Orange Ale - 5.2% ABV
Sam’s Orange Ale delivers unforgettable tastes and moments because of its ability to perfectly balance simplicity with remarkability. With hand-zested oranges and Citra hops, the upfront aroma and flavor is distinct, but the simple malt bill of two row with a touch of premium pilsner keeps the anticipated bitterness in check at only 22 IBUs, ultimately delivering an unexpectedly high level of refreshment. This light ale is truly a beer without comparison - or rhyme.

Devil's Dunkel - 4.6% ABV
Spanning the landscape behind our brewery is an iconic rocky ridge full of awesome mountain bike trails called the Devil’s Backbone. High-fives and dirt crusted smiles are common expressions for those that have had the pleasure of riding there. Devil’s Dunkel is our homage to, and liquid representation of, this amazing place, and the incredible experiences it has inspired. It’s a little darker like the dirt on the trails, it’s challenging but not impossible, it’s a joy going down, and it’s something you want to do over and over.

Little Thompson IPA - 6.2%
There’s a lot of wild and crazy IPAs out there with all sorts of strange flavors and additives, this isn’t one of them. Our Little Thompson IPA is a classic, traditional IPA that you can trust to be as consistent, iconic, and true to the category as its namesake river is to our hometown.

5030 Double IPA - 8.8% ABV
We’ve got taprooms in the towns of Berthoud (elevation 5030) and Loveland - twin cities who represent the hardworking, small-town strength that Colorado is built on. So it’s only fitting we make a Double IPA out of respect and appreciation for everything the great people in our duo of hometown communities bring to the table - day-in and day-out.

8th Street Amber - 5.4% ABV
Coming soon!
rotational draft beer
These beers might not have made it into a 6-pack yet, but we try to keep them on tap for their faithful fans. Sometimes those fans drink them so fast we run out! But usually, if you can wait just a few days, they don't stay gone for long.
