Brew day No. 100!

Today marks yet another landmark moment in our short history, our 100th brew day!

To celebrate, Ford's whipping up a wet hopped pale ale, made with fresh local Colorado Cascade hops (wet hopping, for the non beer geeks out there, means using hops straight off the vine rather than hops that have been dried out and pelletized). 

The brew will be ready to drink in a couple weeks and will most flavorful right when it goes on tap, come try a pint and help us celebrate!

The Raspberry Habanero and Pomegranate Pale Ale have arrived!

If you've been waiting on the edge of your seat since that delightful picture of fresh raspberries was posted to our Facebook, Instagram and Twitter last week, today is your lucky day! 

We are now pouring a very limited supply of both the Raspberry Habanero Pale Ale and Pomegranate Pale Ale exclusively in our taproom. Both beers will likely only last a few days, so come by and try them while they last! (and for all you home drinkers out there, we're sorry to say we aren't able to fill any growlers with either new beer)

Celebrate the last bit of summer with us with these two refreshing beers. 

(PS: keep an eye out for another exclusive release of Cucumber Mint Pale Ale in the coming week or two, as well as the delicious Chocolate Pumpkin Pie Stout this fall)

Stainless steel growlers now on sale!

Just in time to enjoy the end of summer, we now have beautiful Broken Compass stainless steel growlers from Klean Kanteen on sale in the taproom. Take them camping, hiking, rafting, they're perfect for all Colorado adventuring! Both 32 oz. and 64 oz. growlers are available.

Monday Night Potlucks cancelled for summer

Due to Colorado's beautiful summer weather and the heavier traffic in the taproom on Monday nights, we are postponing all Monday Night Potlucks until the fall. 

A huge thank you to everyone who has participated in the potlucks to this point, we'll hope to see again when MNP kicks off again in a few months! 

MNP Week 32: Battle of the Mac N Cheeses

In a classic potluck cheese-off, Jason Briek's colorful version of Mac N Cheese bested Benny Redner's Chili Pepper Pale Ale infused Mac N Cheese by a score of 43-33. 

Potluckers arteries were clogged for hours afterwards due to the delicious intake of mass amounts of cheese, which is always entirely worth it, because damn it, cheese just might be the best damn food in the entire world. The third place dish, Quakin' Avalantro N Cheese, while significantly healthier, also contributed to the cheesefest. 

Thanks to everyone who brought food for the potluck! As always, the potluckers and their dishes:

John Moorr - Roasted Veggies

Gabi and Alex - Quakin Avalantro N Cheese (3rd Place)

Julia, Sam and Katie - Garbage Salad

 Benny Redner - Pale Ale Mac N Cheese (2nd Place)

Nick Alfieri - Garlic Onion Ribs

Peter Haddon - Chocolate Chip Cookies

Maria - Spicy Italian Meatballs

Megan McCulloch - Asian Ramen Noodle Soup

Ginger Hatton - Grandma's Bread and Butter Pickles

Mike Spies - Bloody Mary Jello Shots

Jason Briek - Mac N Cheese (1st Place) 

Closed today 3:45-7

The Broken Compass taproom will be closed today from 3:45-7 for a private party. We apologize for any inconveniences this may cause.
