So we got in yesterday and this was our first day here. We had some great sightseeing and some good eats.
The day started off at the Denver Botanical Gardens. We loved it. I would definitely recommended dropping by if you have the time. I grabbed a few shots to share but they do not do the flowers or the feel of the place any justice.
We also made a stop at one of the restaurants and picked up a couple teas. They were great and refreshing.
Afterwards we strolled around the Cheery Creek area and ended up at the Cheery Creek Beer Garden. I have to admit I was a little disappointed. The CCBG is actually a hotel bar. In fact guest check into the hotel at the bar. It was different. But the worst part was the lack of selection. I really expect a Beer Garden to not only have open air seating but more than seven beers on tap. But the beer was cold and the staff was nice, so we had a small beer and headed back into the City.
Later that day we ended up at Blue Moon Brewery Company -RiNo. Now this was awsome.
They were a little crowded, so we had a seat at the bar. We lucked out on that one. The bartenders were great. We told them generally what we liked to drink and they were all about trying to help us find a beers we liked. This is also where I realized I love the 10oz pour. I normally only get two beers or a flight at a time, but with the 10oz pour I can have three different beers without increasing my total intake. I should also mention that we ended up having dinner here and it was great. The pretzel bites were great and the burgers were awsome.
One more thing before I sign off. I had no idea that Blue Moon made so many different beers. If you get a chance to visit because I am use you will find something new an different.
Till tomorrow.
