"If there’s a First Couple of the Denver drinking scene, it’s McLain Hedges and Mary Allison Wright, who aptly bill their celebrated Cole watering hole as “a nerdy cocktail bar, a natural wine bar, and your favorite dive bar” all in one. Come for a lavish libation like the Fourth Colour, featuring gin, Macvin du Jura, carrot, plum, bergamot, and peat; stay for a fascinating glass of wine most people have never heard of; linger even longer over the Old Number 7-11 — a Jack and Coke with a hot dog. Making some friends along the way is virtually guaranteed." - Ruth Tobias
