Brewery Bar II (Craft Beer & Brewery in Denver CO)

Brewery Bar II sits in the bustling streets of Denver, Colorado, and manages to marry two great British pastimes—beer and bold flavours—without any of the pretension you might expect from a modern gastropub. The menu reads like a love‑letter to classic, old‑school Denver Mexican cuisine: think hefty plates that are extremely smothered in sauce, never skimped on toppings, and a chili relleno that is astonishingly crispy every single time.

The real star, however, is the beer. Generous pours accompany every dish, so you never have to choose between a pint and a plate (or try to drink the other half of a half‑full glass). And the green chile? It packs a punch that would make a heavyweight boxer nod in approval, delivering heat without sacrificing flavour. In short, you get massive servings, relentless spice, and a brew that’s as sturdy as a brick wall—exactly the kind of honest craftsmanship that makes a diner feel both satisfied and a little smug.

(If you’re ever in Denver and crave a meal that doesn’t apologise for being loud, greasy and delicious, this is the spot.)
