The Denver Beer scene is pretty wild. But I noticed on your profile that you are also a whiskey guy. There is a free whiskey tour just outside downtown. Probably a two dollar Uber ride. It is called Stranahan's if you ever get a chance to check it out.
If you walk everywhere in New York, the distillery is "walkable" as well. I have done it.
Awesome, I'll have to check it out next time I'm there. Totally would have done that instead of shopping Saturday. It's been a while since I've done a solid whiskey tasting.
They gave us a free tasting at the end of the tour. It was actually a decent sipping whiskey. It is located east of downtown near where the Breckenridge Brewery used to be. I think there may be another microbrewer in the spot where Breckenridge used to be as well. So it's possible you could do both together.
