A look at the lack of diversity in Colorado's brewing industry

Cerebral is arguably best known for its many IPAs (though its fruited sours and imperial stouts are top-notch, too). Its logo, which looks like a brain made of hops, is an ode to its “scientific” approach to beer. Keep an eye out for special release beers (there’s usually one or two a month).

The majority of the 400+ craft breweries in Colorado are members of the CBG. We offer more than 12 fresh, handcrafted beers straight from our brewery, as well as root beer ... A previous version of this article chose Bonfire Brewing as its beer recommendation, and it would’ve been the best entry…had the brewery survived. The owner of Bonfire passed away during a backcountry ski tour, which eventually led to the permanent closure of the iconic staple. Maybe in the future, Bonfire Brewing will resurrect itself, but for now, Vail Brewing and 7 Hermits should keep most people satisfied. On-site, the Dillon Dam Brewery offers a self-guided brewery tour to learn more about the facilities and brewing process.

We do this by making sure we have a personal relationship with every brewery we work with and that they know our faces and our passion for their beer. A roundup of events in and around home-opening weekend at Coors Field. Wynkoop Brewing Company is tapping its Lockout Maibock, a Maibock brewed during the MLB lockout “when they were not sure if the season Colorado’s Brew was going to happen,” according to a press statement. We’re kicking off the return of the Great American Beer Festival with four beer tappings including three classic Wynkoop brews and one brand new. Join us after you wrap at GABF for food and drink specials 9pm to Midnight. Dr. J Jackson-Beckham is the Brewers’ Association Equity and Inclusion partner.

This approachable and sessionable sour ale is our refreshing twist on a fan favorite. Dayboard Lager is a refreshing beer that’s low in calories but full of flavor. Brewed with Munich malts and Ekuanot hops, this light lager has lots of toasty malt character that’s balanced by just a hint of hops to keep it crisp and refreshing. Apricot Blonde was first brewed in 2006, just one year after Dry Dock opened.

In addition to their homemade brews, the Mahogany Ridge Brewery & Grill offers wines, specialty cocktails, and a wide variety of menu options (including kids’ meals) in a laid-back atmosphere. If you’re in town for a while, make sure to also pop by Mountain Tap Brewery and Storm Peak Brewery. Situated a mere half of a mile away from each other, Odell and New Belgium live in harmony, slinging brews, serving food, and hosting outdoor events for Fort Collins locals and visitors alike.

One example of its innovation is the Live Resin, a fresh-hop IPA distilled with hop oils. Though if hopalicious beers aren’t your thing, New Image often has a handful of interesting sours on tap. While the first Oskar Blues opened in Lyons in 1997, today it also has outposts in Longmont, Denver, and Colorado Springs. Swing through for classics like Dale’s Pale Ale and Mama’s Little Yella Pils, or opt for one of its many seasonal releases. Don’t expect to be able to find a seat, though—all Oskar Blues locations are popular with visitors and locals alike, so they’re often busy. Together, they produce nearly 1 million barrels, or 248 million pints, of beer each year.

Basically, the decree limited the ingredients in beer to water, hops, malt, and yeast, so expect a tap list consisting of very traditional, unadulterated beers. Some standouts include the Slow Pour Pilsner, Czech Dark Lager, and the seasonal Smoked Marzen. What’s particularly interesting about Wild Provisions is its old-school brewing techniques, which call upon equal parts art and science. Rather than use the same stainless steel tanks as most other breweries, it uses wood fermentation vessels called foeders. Over time, the inside of those foeders will develop their own unique flavor profiles, which will breathe funky notes into future concoctions.

The role of the government is to make regulations to force companies and organizations to protect their systems, infrastructure and information from any cyberattacks, but also to protect its own national infrastructure such as the national power-grid. A Ukrainian hacker known as Rescator broke into Target Corporation computers in 2013, stealing roughly 40 million credit cards, and then Home Depot computers in 2014, stealing between 53 and 56 million credit card numbers. Warnings were delivered at both corporations, but ignored; physical security breaches using self checkout machines are believed to have played a large role. The size of the thefts has resulted in major attention from state and Federal United States authorities and the investigation is ongoing. In 1994, over a hundred intrusions were made by unidentified crackers into the Rome Laboratory, the US Air Force's main command and research facility. Using trojan horses, hackers were able to obtain unrestricted access to R

What to Look For in a Lawyer

  Allow me to begin by saying that do-it-yourself lawyering has its limits. Surely, you can draft contracts on your own, you can survive gruesome negotiations with your business clients, you can settle a marital dispute among yourselves but when the need to come to court arises, you need to get a lawyer. Expenses will be incurred, professional fees will have to be paid and the usually lengthy process will have to be endured. More often than not, the costs of resolving a problem are far greater than the costs of preventing the problem. Prevention, as they say, is always better than cure. So hire a lawyer and hire a good one. Qualifications The "practice of law" is loosely defined as ministering to the legal needs of another person by the application of legal principles and knowledge by a person trained in the law. By this definition however, a paralegal or even a secretary who has knowledge of the laws, who has been "trained" by the sheer fact of having been employed
