Bingo's Travels Out West

Just reporting in from his trip to Colorado, Bingo has been pleasantly taken care of out there, beer-wise. He has been visiting Fort Collins, where there have been reports of multiple breweries available for your pleasure.

Its always a great incentive to buy the beer when they give you the glass to keep too. Especially when its a special Colorado only glass. He picked up the Shift, and liked it pretty much.

Here is his reward, for when the work is done.

He also reports of a great place out there, Funkwerks. See link here: Their specialty, and one that he enjoyed the most, was their Saison.
At the brewpub they offered a sampler tray of fluted ale glasses, and the pub itself reminded him much of the Livery, a smaller type brewery but one that still packs a punch in the originality and their ability to stay small and undistributed (escept in 750s) yet be a really good server of beer. This might not be too easy to do since there is a ton of competition out there in that part of the country.

Which might lead one to ask why there is so much brewing? Is it the mountains? Probably not since the Smokies in Tennesee and NC lead to almost non-existent variety.

Thanks again to Bingo. He is, after all, the one who has turned me onto the crafts more than anyone else out there. It also doesnt hurt that he is so close to Two Brothers.

Keep them coming!
