This is from my trip to a Rockies game back on July 28th.

Small Batch - 471 IPA: hoppiness heaven! Smooth, heavenly hopped, cascade for sure. Cloudy light amber, good mouth feel. Nice, but definitely a strong beer. Double hopped, double IP, and double the fun!

Main Line - Lucky U IPA: Balanced, hoppy, dark amber, crisp with alc notes (although not a double like the 471). Has a flavor not associated with hops I can't nail down.

After Rockies game so dead-ish until 20min after game, but a big place. Bar staff was tolerant considering the volume. Bartender would pre-pour pints and leave them for ?? until ordered on most of the standard beers. Food was limited at least at the bar. My selection was okay, not a do over, but filling. Straight bar food/burgers.

First, I would say in general, Breckenridge beers have not been my favorite in the past from what I have had in bottles. But this brewery experience was very good. Went during GABF week and before a Rockies game. Although it was packed, we got in after a fairly short wait (with all their merchandise to look at in the entry, also helped with the wait). Menu was fairly normal for a brewpub, but the food was good. Had their normal 6-7 beers on tap plus about 6 small batch/nitro/cask. Tried the Mighty Brown which was one of the best browns I have ever had. Also tried their small batch stout, I'd call it average, not my favorite. The wait staff was quite attentive even with the busy time.

I've been here a bunch of times over the years. Definitely worth the visit, but beware of game days. Breckenridge gets quite busy before and after baseball games, so I generally avoid the place then. Being right across the street from Coors Field has certainly helped their business over the years. During ballpark construction, you could view copies of the blueprints while you drank beer and played pool.

In general, this place is nice, but not a standout. It feels a little too much like Rock Bottom in a warehouse for my tastes. Still, the food is decent and the beers are generally good. The menu is typical Colorado chain restaurant: sandwiches, burgers, Mexican, plus some nice appetizers. Portions are generous, and prices are on par with other local eateries.

Service is good, even on game days. The staff know their brews, which is a plus. I'm sure I'll be here again when time permits.

If you have permission from your heart Doctor, you should try the fried macaroni and cheese triangles with ranch dip. Seriously, who thinks these things up?

The food we had was pretty good, the service wasn't bad, but it was a bit stressed, possibly due to the GABF occurring that week. The beers were good too. Most of the beers available you can find bottled elsewhere, but they had some of Breckenridge's 471 Small Batch selections on draft as well.

Breckenridge is two blocks south of Flying Dog and only two blocks north of Falling Rock, so there is really no reason to skip it. This location is about 4 or 5 blocks from the free 16th street bus, so use that if you are looking for public transportation during GABF or from the downtown area.

This person needs 3 or more reviews on the site for their scores to start counting.

This place is good for atmosphere, food, and beer. Their 2220 Red is a good flavorful beer with a great taste. I definately recommend the Bison burgers they're delicious. They will also have a seasonal beer on tap. On this visit they had a summer wheat that was filtered. They also have steaks on the menu and on of our party said that the steak he had was cooked perfectly. They have a good selection of beers on tap including all the beers that Breckenridge Brewery make. They do not make the beer on site, but the beer is made near the restaurant. coors field is right across the street so the gameday atmosphere is awesome.
