Thank You Avery Brewing Co.


February 22nd, 2011

This weekend we had the wonderful opportunity to participate in the 9th Annual Boulder Strong Ale Festival at Avery Brewing Co. The festival featured over 100 beers from breweries across the country. Paticipants of the festival bought tickets that entitled them to enry into the festival, a commemorative tasting glass, and 16 2oz pours of any beer that they desired. All proceeds were given to a local charity.

We were so thankful to be a part of this event! So cheers to Avery Brewing Co. for putting on an excellent event for a great cause! We hope that we can be a part of many more to come.

On not a completely related note, Dave Morris, of www.newsok.com, came by and did the following video last week. It highlights not only the Strong Ale Festival but several exciting things that are looming in our future. So grab a pint, sit back and enjoy, and if you see Dave around town tell him “great job on the video”!

A Little Bit About What We Do


February 15th, 2011

About a month ago Dave Rhea came out and shot this excellent video at our facility.  Everyday we are trying to introduce our product to people who have never heard of it and videos like this do a great service to us.  So grab a pint, sit back and enjoy!

P.S. Check back this weekend as we will be updating you on what is happening at the 9th Annual Boulder Beer Festival!

It’s All About The Can


February 9th, 2011

The following are just a couple of articles that illustrate some of the finer points as to why we choose to put our beer in cans:

http://www.askmen.com/fine_living/wine_dine_archive_250/284_the-argument-for-canned-beer.html

http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=112575361

A can is a essentially a mini keg! We believe that at a restaurant or bar the best way for you to receive our beer is out of a keg.  However, in the absence of a keg we believe that THE CAN is the best vessel to keep our beer fresh and crisp for your drinking pleasure.

Remember drink responsibly…. pour it in a glass!

COOP 2nd Anniversary – January 8, 2011


December 22nd, 2010

Wow, we’ve been so busy this year, we haven’t even updated the blog. That speaks volumes to the changes and happenings around COOP. If you missed the 1st Anniversary, here is your chance to redeem yourself. Again, this is our THANK YOU to our loyal fans, friends and family – you’re the reason we started this adventure and the reason we’re charging ahead. There will be great food, music, amazing beer and a few limited recipes brewed just for this party. Trust us (or better yet, ask someone who was there in 2010), you don’t want to miss this.

Here’s the scoop, we’ve got a little less floor space than last year (cans, big fermenters and other stuff took over some space in 2010). So, the party will be held in two sessions, each limited to 500 lucky beer lovers. The first session is Noon – 4:00pm and the second session is 6:00pm – 10:00pm.

You must have a ticket to enter, and there are a couple ways to score such prized tickets. First, if you know one of the COOP team members, let them know and they’ll reserve tickets for you and they will be held at Will Call. Second, the COOP will be open Monday-Thursday, January 3-6, 5:00pm – 7:00pm. You may come by the brewery to pick up ticktets during those times. Just a reminder, tickets are FREE! Spread the word and bring your friends. We hope to see you there!

COOP Anniversary Event – A Success Indeed!!


January 10th, 2010

Thank you to the masses who joined us to celebrate our 1st birthday!!  We’ll be telling stories about this event for a while.  We know the parking was tight and the lines were long, but it was worth it for those who made it. This event would not have been possible without the help of over a dozen people who devoted a lot of time preparing for the event and serving the nearly 1,000 people who flooded through the doors on this monumental evening.  Thank you!
