Urban Animal Brewery ~ Colorado Springs, Colorado


First visit: Oct 2023

Once again we are in the city, which is going to be a nightly event for at least another week, weather permitting. There's a reason for that, but no need to get into that here. Urban Animal represents the last (and newest) Colorado Springs brewery I haven't been to (I still have a few to write about though). Mrs. RJG missed some of the newer ones, but she seems open to trying them now, so I'll need to get her to those as well. And what better excuse to go than when Dr. Taco is there! He's a staple on Friday nights at Urban Animal. In addition to having the best tacos in town, he and his family were very recently featured on one of the local morning TV shows. So he's now a celebrity too lol. We were concerned it would be too crowded and were thinking of backup plans. Urban Animal is near Cheyenne Mountain, about as far from our home as you can possibly be and still be considered in Colorado Springs. So planning was essential.

We needed not worry. Urban Animal is one of the larger breweries (in terms of space) in town, with plenty of booths, high tables, and bar seating. We grabbed a couple of beers, sat in a booth, and got straight to business going outside on this cold evening and ordering from Dr. Taco. He delivered his delicious tacos straight to our table.

As for the brewery, it's excellent and I'm tempted to put it in the top half of breweries in Colorado Springs on only one visit (and competition is stiff here with so many great ones). Love the venue, and the beers are really good.
