Horsefly Brewing Company (Craft Beer & Brewery in Montrose CO)

Horsefly Brewing Company in Montrose, Colorado lives up to its brash slogan “No Crap on Tap.” The place isn’t a pretentious cocktail bar; it’s a workshop of flavour where local, vibrant ingredients are treated with the respect they deserve. Every brew hits the palate like a well‑tuned symphony, and the hand‑crafted cocktails sit politely beside the award‑winning burgers that have earned more medals than a seasoned Olympian. If you fancy something beyond the pint, the menu also boasts a red‑chili masterpiece, a brisket sandwich that could win a culinary showdown, and a tray of mixed fries that let you decide which side reigns supreme.

Step outside onto the heated, pet‑friendly patio and you’ll find a generous space where live music drifts into the evening, inviting conversation and laughter (the owners once joked that the patio’s size could accommodate a small herd). The beer selection stays ice‑cold, locally brewed, and proudly displayed on tap, making the venue as much a gathering spot as a celebration of craft. All in all, Horsefly serves up quality with a grin, proving that good beer and good food don’t need to be cloaked in pretense.
