If you are on this list, you are probably<BR>an experienced, burly outdoorsy person and know the answers. ;)<BR><BR><BR>So, let's get to the real question: BREW PUBS!<BR><BR>With the FREE summit stage bus in Summit County, you can easily hit the brew pubs in Breck, Dillon and Frisco.<BR><BR>The Dam Brewery in Dillon is indeed great. I quaffed a few beers after some backcountry skis more than once.<BR>(Many Texans hang out there during ski season. My apologies to Texan listers..but what is with Texans demanding that they play<BR>Texan Footballs games in ski bars? OK..rant off! :D) I strongly suggest the Sweet George's Brown.<BR><BR>In Breck, you can go to the Brekenridge Brew Pub. Breck is actually easily
reached from the designated CDTA route (if you go<BR>that way) or the free bus system as well. The Oatmeal Stout is awesome.<BR><BR>My favorite though is the Backcountry Brewey in Frisco (easily reached from Copper via the free bus!)<BR>Sit on the deck, look at the (pine bark beetle damaged) ridge and have a 14er Burger: 1 pound of meat, double the cheese<BR>and order some BACON to go with it. A carinvore delight! Wash it down with with a Peak One Porter!<BR><BR>Now, the Tommy Knockers in Idaho Sprgs is different from the one in Creede. (It is good though!)<BR><BR>If you come to Boulder (and I have a feeling you just may be able to have someone pick you up at the TH, give you a place to crash<BR>and drop you back off. Dunno why I think this...) ., I suggest you go to the Southern Sun Brewery. It is my hangout place and they<BR>make awesome beer. The Java Porter on nitro (very smooth!) is one of my favorite beers ever. Have a junk
burger to go with it.<BR>(bacon, cheese, mushrooms, onions, roasted garic mayo). I probably paid for at least one booth in the bar on all the money I've<BR>spent there over the years...<BR><BR><BR><BR>If I may put in a plug (I don't earn money off it..so maybe it is not a plug? :D), my website has my favorite day hikes, backpacks and ski tours.<BR>I give the boring info (maps needed, directions to the TH, etc.), but most importantly: WHERE TO GET BEER AFTER THE HIKE! :)<BR><A href="http://www.pmags.com/joomla/index.php/Backpacking-and-Hiking-documents/Favorite-Colorado-Hikes.html" target=_blank rel=nofollow>http://www.pmags.com/joomla/index.php/Backpacking-and-Hiking-documents/Favorite-Colorado-Hikes.html</A><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR> ************************************************************<BR>The true harvest of my life is intangible.... a little stardust<BR>caught, a portion of the rainbow I have clutched<BR>--Thoreau<BR><A
