Blue Spruce Brewing ~ Centennial, Colorado


First visit: Aug 2022

After the 3 Freaks visit didn't pan out as expected, it was time to find our next "stones throw" brewery. Only 2 major blocks west lies Blue Spruce. It's a quick car ride so we settled on this for our final stop of the night.

This is much more of what I expect to find in the southern suburbs of Denver. Now we're in a much nicer strip center location. A big spacious place with sports on TV and - of course - a live solo act singing folk music. That everyone ignored. The crowd was a mix of middle aged folks and various neighborhood gatherings. Very comfortable and we enjoyed the people watching. The brewery features a number of beers, and not all the typical styles. So I can get a Vienna or a Helles, not just an IPA. They also promote their kitchen and it seemed like it would be a good place to eat as well. Will have to do that sometime. In any case, the beers are great and it's a nice festive place. The opposite of 3 Freaks 'fraid to say.

BTW - Centennial has a very weird border structure. You'll note that Mama Louise is in Centennial, and yet it's many miles to the east, near Aurora. Essentially Centennial is a thin strip across the southern part of Denver. 10 yards tall and 30 miles wide. Or so it seems.
