Anniversary Outing To The Beast & Brew 31May19

Question: Where's the only place I've seen in COS to get an ORB beer? Answer: The Beast & Brew. Kala and I hit this new taproom and eatery today for our 39th. Interesting concept and a little expensive - probably a 3.5/5 stars. There are 99 beers on tap which are SELF SERVE by the ounce - you can taste a lot but at $.50 - $.75/oz you will earn it. There were ~20 IPAs with many CO versions including two ORB offers! - cool. There's a master butcher and chef with age drying done on site and a cabinet for purchase up front. We did not go full in for the steaks at lunch but the street tacos and Cuban were tasty... the Brussels sprouts were undercooked and they comped us those. Kala heard of this new space and we hit it the day before grand opening tomorrow. The space is good with nice outdoor area featuring awesome views of the AFA and Pike's Peak - plus there's a rainbow painting. Greg should beware of its proximity to FedEx. All things considered we agreed we'd come back.

Yesterday we caught some of the AFA graduation flyovers. Unexpectedly there were no close runs over the house as usual - maybe Trump was late or maybe there was cloud cover. This is all I got from our house really.
