"If you’ve heard of exactly one drinking destination in Denver, it's probably Williams & Graham, located behind what appears to be world’s smallest bookstore. There isn’t a classic, on menu or off, that the bar can’t make or a special request it won’t entertain, so don’t hesitate to ask. But the heart of the list resides in the seasonal cocktails. The odder the concoction sounds, the more likely it is to blow your mind sky-high. So even if you're confused by the thought of sesame oil, spinach syrup, or sunchoke-flavored rum, give it a whirl. And despite all the hoopla surrounding it, once you get past the secret (okay, open-secret) entrance, it’s still a bar built for comfort." - Ruth Tobias
