Calicraft Brewing Co.'s outdoor beer garden is open as phase one of its Shadelands rebuild, with shipping-container bar energy, fire pits, food trucks, and a dog- and kid-friendly layout while the bigger two-story home takes shape on Mitchell Drive. Phase one outdoors in Shadelands The temporary garden (about 6,500 square feet) grew out of the need to keep serving while Calicraft's original 2700 Mitchell Drive building is demolished and rebuilt. Access and parking for the outdoor space have been directed via 390 N. Wiget Lane; the official taproom listing still points guests to the Mitchell Drive address. Expect a branded container bar, covered picnic tables, Adirondack chairs around fire pits, a play area, and rotating food trucks. Live music shows up on weekends, and outside food is welcome when the trucks are quiet. Hours on Calicraft's site: Monday 3-8 p.m.; Tuesday-Thursday 3-10 p.m.; Friday-Sunday noon-10 p.m. Confirm before you go: calicraft.com/pages/taproom. What is coming next The long game is a roughly 10,000-square-foot, two-story facility with R&D brewing, tasting space, restaurant, and a covered heated garden, plus plans that stretch into wine, spirits, and RTDs under the Calicraft name. Local coverage has pointed to later indoor and kids-area phases as construction continues. For now, the outdoor garden is the door you can walk through this week in a district that has shifted from office park to a denser mix of businesses, gardens, and hangouts. Bottom line If you are mapping a Contra Costa beer afternoon, start here: fire pits, trucks, and Calicraft taps while the flagship rises behind the fence.

The Great American Beer Festival returns Saturday and Sunday, October 10 and 11, 2026, outdoors for the first time at Denver's Levitt Pavilion in Ruby Hill. If you already bookmarked GABF for a fall beer trip, this is the planner update: new venue, shorter daytime sessions, and a layout built around meeting the people who brew the beer. Levitt Pavilion, not the Convention Center Sessions run noon to 4 p.m. both days at Levitt Pavilion, 1380 W. Florida Ave., Denver. The nonprofit amphitheater and surrounding green space replace the longtime Colorado Convention Center footprint. Official pages describe a more intimate, curated brewery lineup, open-air tasting, live music, food trucks, stein hoisting, and the Sunday competition awards ceremony back on the festival floor for the public. Tickets start at $60 (about $66.53 all-in with taxes and fees); a two-day pass starts at $109 (about $120.93 all-in). PAIRED beer-and-bite tickets and $29 designated-driver options are also listed. You must be 21+. Trip details: greatamericanbeerfestival.com and tickets via Eventbrite. Getting there without the parking headache Brewers Association guidance is clear: rideshare, RTD light rail (I-25 & Broadway or Evans), or the official round-trip shuttle from the Sheraton Denver Downtown beat circling for scarce park spots. Shuttle add-ons sell with festival tickets through October 1. Main entrance sits on the south side off Jewel Ave. near Ruby Hill Bike Park; rideshare drop-offs are steered that way. Build extra time for ID checks and a sunny Colorado afternoon. Bottom line This is not the same GABF map you used last decade. Outdoor first, daytime sessions, and a Ruby Hill address change the whole Denver weekend. Grab tickets early, reserve a shuttle if you need it, and leave room after 4 p.m. for the rest of the city's taprooms. Claim your brewery page or send us a tip on LocalBrews.Beer.

Known for its eclectic selection of unique brews and a cult-like following, Beer Zombies is still a favorite of beer aficionados in the area with their brewery near downtown. The closure came with little warning, leaving fans wondering what’s next for the space that had become a beloved hangout for craft beer lovers and neighborhood locals alike.But there’s a new twist: it looks like Beer Zombies won’t be gone for long without a replacement. Right next door to the popular SkinnyFats, a new name has appeared on the horizon – Happy Taps. No official announcement has been made, but rumors are swirling that SkinnyFats might be behind this new venture. The resemblance to the SkinnyFats branding, right down to the playful smiley face and the name’s upbeat vibe, has fans drawing some intriguing conclusions.A New Concept in the Making?If the connection between SkinnyFats and Happy Taps is real, this would be a notable expansion for the brand known for its unique “Live Healthy, Live Happy” menu. SkinnyFats has carved out a loyal customer base by catering to both the health-conscious and the indulgent with a menu split into “healthy” and “happy” options. Could Happy Taps be the latest addition to this concept – a place to enjoy a range of taps in a fun, laid-back atmosphere? It would make sense for SkinnyFats to bring a new kind of beverage experience to complement its distinctive food offerings, especially in an area that already has a loyal following.What We Know (and What We Don’t)At this point, details are sparse, and neither SkinnyFats nor Beer Zombies has made an official statement. Some locals have even reported seeing work being done on the space formerly occupied by Beer Zombies, hinting that changes are already underway. A new sign on the street marquee for “Happy Taps” has already gone up but no other external branding seems to be visible on the building. We will get some photos soon.As SkinnyFats continues to evolve, a venture like Happy Taps could align perfectly with their brand philosophy. “Live Hoppy, Drink Happy,” anyone?The SkinnyFats Connection: Coincidence or Master Plan?The proximity of Happy Taps to SkinnyFats can’t be ignored, but without official confirmation, we’re left with speculation. If SkinnyFats is indeed behind Happy Taps, it would be a strategic move, allowing them to cater to a lively audience that loves unique food and drink experiences. This wouldn’t be SkinnyFats' first creative spin-off; they’ve experimented with different concepts before, always keeping an eye on what resonates with their customer base.Could this new spot be a taproom experience with the same creative twist SkinnyFats brings to its food? Will we see a menu of craft beers alongside quirky, fun food options? For now, all we can do is speculate.As more details emerge, we’ll keep you updated on what’s next for the spot that was once Beer Zombies. Whether Happy Taps will live up to the legacy of its predecessor remains to be seen, but for now, it seems like Las Vegas may be getting a new destination to “drink happy.”Stay tuned for updates – as soon as we know more, you’ll be the first to hear!Happy Taps - Warm Springs - Las Vegas NV  https://localbrews.beer/news-articles/breaking-news-happy-taps-taking-over-beer-zombies-bottle-shop-on-warm-springs-in-las-vegas e21bd8ab999859f3642d2227e682e66f Sun, 27 Oct 2024 22:45:17 +0000 Beer Team News March 11th, 2024Information first reported by Bob Barnes: https://www.adcook.com/las-vegas-brewing-news-march-2024/Las Vegas's dynamic beer scene has seen its share of changes recently, with the closure of a beloved brewery, the relocation of another, and the exciting opening of a new establishment.

The atmosphere is relaxed, the beer is fresh, and the people are friendly. It's a place where you can truly appreciate the craftsmanship that goes into every pint. But aside from the great vibes and tasty brews, there are some hidden benefits to visiting a local brewery.1. Supporting Local Businesses and the EconomyOne of the most significant benefits of visiting a local brewery is the direct impact it has on the local economy. When you choose to spend your money at a local brewery, you're supporting a small business that's contributing to the growth and development of your community. Local breweries create jobs and contribute to the tax base, which in turn helps to fund essential services and infrastructure improvements.Additionally, local breweries often source their ingredients from nearby suppliers, which means your dollars are helping to support not just the brewery but also local farmers and other businesses. By choosing to patronize a local brewery, you're playing a role in fostering a thriving, sustainable local economy.2. Freshness and QualityThere's no denying that the beer you'll find at a local brewery is fresher than anything you'll find at the store. Breweries typically produce beer in smaller batches, which means that the beer you're drinking has likely been brewed within the last few weeks or even days. The result is a fresher, more flavorful beer that simply can't be matched by mass-produced alternatives.On top of that, local breweries have the freedom to experiment with different ingredients and brewing techniques, which leads to a diverse selection of high-quality, unique beers. When you visit a local brewery, you'll be able to taste these creations firsthand and even provide feedback, which can help the brewers to refine their recipes and continue to innovate.3. Environmental SustainabilityChoosing to visit a local brewery can also have a positive impact on the environment. Since the beer is produced and consumed locally, it doesn't have to travel long distances to reach your glass. This reduces the carbon emissions associated with transportation and helps to minimize the overall environmental footprint of the beer you're enjoying.Many local breweries also prioritize sustainable practices in their operations, including using energy-efficient equipment, recycling water, and implementing waste reduction measures. By supporting these businesses, you're helping to promote a greener, more sustainable future for the brewing industry.4. Building Community ConnectionsFinally, visiting a local brewery is a great way to connect with your community. Breweries often serve as gathering places where people can come together to socialize, network, and bond over a shared love of beer. Attending brewery events, such as taproom trivia nights or live music performances, can help you to meet new people and form lasting friendships.Moreover, many local breweries are actively involved in giving back to their communities through charitable donations and fundraising events. By visiting a local brewery, you're not only supporting a small business, but you're also contributing to the overall well-being of your community.ConclusionThere are many great reasons to visit a local brewery, from supporting your local economy to enjoying fresh, unique beers. By choosing to spend your money at a local brewery, you're helping to create a more sustainable, connected, and prosperous community. So the next time you're in the mood for a cold one, consider skipping the big-name brands and giving your local brewery a try.
