Breweries
Estes Park breweries.
For a small mountain town, Estes Park pours well above its weight: dog-friendly patios, European-style aleworks, sours, and the town's original brewery back in business. All of it minutes from the lodge.
The Taprooms
Where the locals drink.
Four taprooms cover the range, from patio pints with the dog to small-batch European styles and fruit-forward sours. Hours shift with the seasons, so check each brewery's site before you head down.
- Rock Cut Brewing Company: family and dog-friendly patio at the base of Prospect Mountain, a short walk from downtown (site)
- Avant Garde Aleworks: European-style beers, rotating food trucks, live music, dog-friendly (site)
- Lumpy Ridge Brewing Company: fruit-forward beers and sours, with an original taproom and a downtown Publick House (site)
- The Hive at Estes Park Brewery: the town's original brewery (est. 1994), reopened in 2025 as a full brewpub (site)
The Basecamp
End the crawl on the deck.
The lodge sits ten minutes above town on a private ridge, dog friendly and built for a group. Bring a crowler back, put your feet up on the wraparound deck, and let the designated driver off the hook for the night.
- Ten minutes above downtown Estes Park
- Dog friendly, so the patio pup comes home too
- Sleeps 8 across 3 bedrooms, room for the whole crew
- Thirsty for more? See the wineries and the distilleries
