Flying Dog is Denver’s largest brewery and the second largest craft brewery in the state of Colorado. Their award-winning “litter of ales” are available in 45 states. The Brewery is located at 2401 Blake Street, just 2 blocks north of the baseball stadium. Flying Dog’s core values of “purposeful, provocative and irreverent” flow through the veins of the brewery’s founding owners, George Stranahan and Richard McIntyre. George and Richard were friends with the “Gonzo Journalist,” Hunter S. Thompson who coined the brand’s tagline “Good People Drink Good Beer” and with the “Gonzo Artist,” Ralph Steadman, who illustrates the brand’s packaging.
One of the craft brewing industry’s most skilled teams continues to brew Flying Dog’s award-winning “litter of ales.” President and CEO, Eric Warner is a German-trained Brewmeister and one of only a handful of American graduates of the Technical University of Munich at Weihenstephan. Head Brewer, Matt Brophy is a self-professed “Hop Head” and graduate of one of North America’s best brewing schools, the Seibel Institute.
