Twisted Pine boasts a warehouse-style atmosphere, complete with exposed piping, stone slab floors and an open dining room that seems to always be filled with the din of clinking glasses and tipsy laughter. The beer and events make this local spot the perfect evening hangout. Not to mention, Twisted Pine is one of Boulder's most decorated breweries with awards from The Great American Beer Festival, The Colorado State Fair and the US Open Beer Championship.

The Brews

Delicious seasonal ales, chili beers and unique blends such as Canis Iupulus (Hop Wolf) Imperial Black Ale are paired with Twisted Pine's yummy pub-grub for a night of eating, drinking and making merry. Some other brews to peruse: Black Swan Saison, Barleywine and the spicy Ghost Face Killah chili beer.

The Eats

Sandwiches that will make you salivate and chewy pizzas are perfect for your late-night munchies. It also behooves you to try their "Sweet Blind Date" which is a pairing of cookies with 5 oz pours of beer. Yep, that's right, cookies and beer. How twisted and awesome is that!?
