Guest Bobcat Hill Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Does anyone know where the tour stops at the Denver conference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffw Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 I don't believe it is definitively set and different buses will go to different places. Sounded like all will go to Stranahan's and at least 1 brewery, but the rest could just depend what bus you are on. That said, Bill Owens made it sound like a lot of fun. I'd just go ahead and sign up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordon Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 As per Leah Hutchinson, Conference & Advertising Director: Stranhans, Dancing Pines, Spring 44, Spirit Hounds & Roundhouse. Also Avery Brewing OR New Belgium Brewing. Obviously not all of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 That sounds like a pretty solid tour. Also, lots of options for self-guided tours beyond the Front Range distilleries that the ADI tour will be hitting. I can't speak to the availability or willingness of any other distilleries, but within a 3hr drive from denver you'd be able to hit the following *other* distilleries (in order of distance - nearest first): Downslope Distilling, Centenial Golden Moon, Golden 303/Boulder Distillery, Boulder Syntax Spirits, Greeley Breckenridge Distillery, Breckenridge Deerhammer Distilling, Buena Vista Woods High Mountain Distillery, Salida Montanya Distillers, Crested Butte Peach Street Distillers, Palisade I'm probably missing a few - and if you added on more miles there are more you could hit. For anyone spending a few extra days on either side of the conference that wants to see what Colorado really looks like beyond the city... I'd be happy to show you around my place and share some drinks with you. We're a two hour drive from denver with multiple hotsprings and monarch ski area right down the road.

cphillips Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Had a great time last year! Just sign up and you'll be drinking good stuff with good people! Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kristian Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 It's probably a good idea to contact any distillery you plan to visit before or after the conference. We are not hosting any visitors outside of the ADI class or the bus tour because we will be - at the conference with you, or busy hosting those who have paid to take the hands on rum distilling class. If you cannot make the drive to see these distilleries or take the ADI's bus tour you will be able to meet the distillers and taste their spirits at Dstill a few blocks from the conference site on Wednesday night. Add to Lenny's list although still not complete I'm sure. KJ Woods Feisty Tesouro J&L Distilling Black Canyon Gargoyle Mile High Spirits 291 Boathouse Peak Spirits Trail Town We are honored to be having all of you visit.

Guest Bobcat Hill Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 Thanks to all. We are only in Denver proper for the two conference days and will miss the tour bus opportunity. We are thinking about skipping out early on the conference programming one of the days to visit one or two distilleries. Any recommendations on what one or two would be in easy driving distance from the Sheraton and possibly have late hours? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
