Our Mutual Friend Brewing

I love the current painting on the exterior, so colorful! As soon as I walked in, I loved the vibe! It was bright and airy and perfectly decorated. There were books above the bar, a wall of merch, a Photo Booth, and walls covered in stickers. I was immediately happy. HOWEVER it smelled so bad in there. I think it was the bbq place next door that was cooking outside (my guess was a chorizo of some kind) and I couldn’t stand the smell. I also wish there were any seating options with a back. There were different kinds of bar stools and picnic tables outside but nothing with back support. I tried two different beers while I was there and liked both 👍 The bartender was kind, attentive and welcoming too. I’d be happy to come back solo or with friends.

Fun brewery with a good variety of options right near the main stretch in rino. The barley wine knocked my socks off. It was quite high abv but the complexity of flavor was impressive. I was a bit hesitant at $12 for one beer but it was absolutely worth it. They also have plenty of more accessible and more reasonable prices for other beers

I was riding a scooter around, enjoying all the art that adorns EVERY FLAT SURFACE (even some not so flat ) and realized that all this work had made me quit parched! First, there is quite a bit of selection for your fermenting needs. Something about this place stuck out. The menu features quite a few drafts ( +15) and showcase a diverse stock. For those of you who prefer IPAs, the is a good selection for you pine tree lickers. For the rest of us, there is more than usual. I had the Pedestrian, a Colorado Dark Pub Ale. Its not only brewed here in Colorado, but 100% of the hops and malt are grown here as well The tatted up young woman behind the bar was a wealth of beer and non-beer related information. But we all have passions and one of her's was clear. Good ole burr. Not only did she take the time to run through the options available there, but also tips for her favorites from other breweries. The burr scene here isn't competitive, but cooperative. After telling you about their offerings and favorites, everyone one will start pointing you in the directions of other breweries for their favorites there as well. I will someday go back. With all the restaurants and breweries to go, it might be a while. Unless I need a lead for the next great burr, then I quickly head back to Our Mutual Friend brewing for another delicious Pedestrian, and tips from my favorite bartender about where to go! Salute!

I go to the bar of this place and the bartenders are mutually discussing and ignoring me for a solid 60 seconds with no one else at the bar. I ask for a flight on a weekday today which is a Wednesday and they say they're not doing them right now. I ask for a sample because ultimately this is my first and last time here and I'd like to try a few of the beers on offer. They say they only do two "because it's annoying after that", the other bartender working with me then promptly disengages and starts talking to someone else who came to the bar. I'm not sure why these two bartenders choose to behave this way but it immediately turned me off and I left. It was a pretty crappy experience and I would caution others form going to this place.

This was an awesome surprise! My family and I were out walking around Rhino and spotted (hard to miss) a pretty cool colorful building that turned out to be a brewery. I am a glutton for trying new breweries so of course I made us stop and check it out…. And I am damn glad I did! Great brews, cool spot and surrounded by great food options around the brewery! Definitely worth the stop and time spent in the area. Do yourself a favor and GO HERE!

Was in RiNo area and this had a fun atmosphere packed with plenty of folks enjoying some brews. There’s large outdoor patio for seating groups with picnic tables and good shade on a sunny day. The interior taproom has plenty of seating and lots of options for whatever you’re in the mood for. Beer to go is readily available and the staff were great. Cheers !!

Excellent beer. Fun metal atmosphere. Large patio. Hot dogs. Real dogs too. Nicely varied selection. I highly recommend the: Biere Ovale Inner Light

Saisons, sours, and hazies. Not a common combo, but they pulled it off. My saison was really good. Grassy without any barnyard. My wife's hazy looked like a glass of orange juice.

Cute spot and good vibes. Our beertender was attentive and helpful. This is a brewery, so no food is served. Neon Nail and Time's Arrow were two yummy brews.

My favorite spot for beer in RiNo! Really good central location, great brews and conveniently located next to a great BBQ joint. People there are nice and it's a chill vibe! Only downside is the place is a little small.

This was fun! Would not have chosen to go here on my own as I am not a beer person. However, Westword 100 tells you that this is a bar you can't live without in Denver, and I would agree. The line out the door to order beer would also agree! It's got a fun, communal vibe going. The menu is extensive, and while I am no beer connoisseur, the pilsner I did try, The Fizz, was tasty. If I am in the neighborhood, I would definitely go again. Try the photo booth as well!

Stopped in for a quick drink and to get one of the Westword 100 Beer & Cider places check off my list, I am not a big beer drinker but did like their offerings of Belgian Sours. The Gratitude Eleven was a barrel fermented Saison with cherries at 5.9% ABV. With a beautiful bright red color, this went down easy. Service is friendly and be sure to order at the bar. Lots of seating options both inside and outdoors. There is also a fun Photo Booth and lots of eclectic decor to look at.

When in the River North district of Denver, Colorado I highly recommend giving Our Mutual Friend Brewing a visit. They are in a fun area walkable to a bunch of other breweries, but they truly treat you like a friend. I got a flight and had a fun time chatting up the beertender. Festbier: A classic Festbier style Oktoberfest. Holy Scroller: A Saison brewed with Arizona Hickory Honey and fermented using Brett yeast. Neon Nail: A Hazy IPA hopped with Vic Secret, Galaxy, and Citra hops. Porch Pumpkin: An Imperial Porter brewed with Pumpkin and Vanilla. Tis the season, right? Vanilla Thanatoid: An Imperial Stout that they barrel aged and added vanilla. Downright delectable. _______

What a bright and beautiful brewery! I was in town recently and Our Mutual Friend came highly recommended so I had to check it out. I loved all the colors and the mural on the outside of the building. It is small but there is patio with a few additional seats. The inside was full of greenery, which I love. And they even have a little Photo Booth. There's no food but next door is a bbq place. I had just eaten so I didn't try it but several people there were getting food so I assume it's probably good. But I am a KC bbq girlie so ‍ The beer. I tried a blueberry sour and a stout. I loved the blueberry sour and I deeply regret not getting any to go. Definitely a good sour. The stout was also good. It was a bit too smooth for a 15% beer. I wish I would have been able to try more but I will definitely return.

Best brewery in denvaaaa. Beer is great, hot dogs on Monday for free w a pint glass purchase, nice great service

Decided to stop in for a refreshing drink on a warm summer Friday afternoon around 2pm while exploring the city and couldn't have been more pleased with the experience! My husband had been wanting to try this brewery from seeing good reviews and reading about how they have quality craft brews. Always in search of a tasty sour beer and OMF absolutely delivered! The aesthetic of the building is so fun with the bright colorful mural work and the playful character runs throughout the interior as well. The indoor/outdoor patio seating is on the small side, yet casual and great to enjoy hanging out with just you and a partner or a group of friends! Dog friendly and the service was quick. Have your ID at the ready as they are good about checking! Street parking was easy, however, it would be more difficult on a busier day as the streets are not big in the area.

I visited 4 different breweries while in Denver. I only had sour beers at each stop. OMF had the best sour beer of the four breweries we visited. It also had a really cool and fun decor inside. They even had a Photo Booth. Definitely recommend giving it a try.

Our Mutual Friend was a place my husband kept talking about in the days leading up to our trip to Denver. He'd say, "So and so, and I love Our Mutual Friend". Clearly, he was pulling my leg since I thought we were seeing a person, but low and behold, we were actually a great brewery! We both got flights, with some overlap of our favorite beers. We went on November 1, so I was thrilled to drink an imperial pumpkin porter, which was excellent! You'd hardly know it was 8%. Another standout was the collaboration beer with Wren House in Phoenix, which was another nice surprise. The space inside was bright and open, with a lovely patio outside for end-of-the-year beers. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. I'd return the next time I'm in Denver.

Blue skies and crips lagers. What more could one want? Well...WiFi would have been nice. But the beer is good. The service was good. The indoor/outdoor patio is great. I love a dumpster view. No really...it added charm!

We got to this brewery with high hopes but we were only met with disappointment. We came here after a GREAT V-day at the museum of nature and history museum only to be met with horrible service and mediocre beer. The bar/beer tender was not helpful or attentive. There were supposed "free hotdogs" with a beer purchase but was not offered. The person taking orders was only "friendly" with the people, I suspect we're friends at the bar top. The beer was subpar to a point but had no original flavors or profiles. Though these look like good beers there is nothing to be desired that can be tasted from a domestic beer. I would try to describe the beers but as was said before there was nothing special or appealing of these beers. The lighting dimmed in areas that needed it after a certain time. This felt as if you are being kicked out at a VERY specific point in the evening. There were food truck near by that made this place look great but this was not the case. If you value service, your money and tastes go a better brewery like Bierstadt brewery, TRVE, Great Divide, or Ratio brewery. They will treat you better and have SUPERIOR tasting beers.

Probably my favorite of all the breweries I visited in Denver. They have a large selection of beer. I liked the blueberry sour.

Boyfriend and I stopped here after the waitress/bartender at Black Shirt told us it was her favorite brewery. We had been walking around all to find all the breweries in Denver so we had to check out OMF. When we arrived around 8, it was very busy. We walked right up to the bar and got a flight of 4 beers that peaked our interest. The nice gentleman behind the bar told us about all the beers and made some good recommendations! The vibe inside was really welcoming and everyone was enjoying themselves. We also got two stickers, I really loved their logo and merchandise was great. Must check them out!

Very chill, great IPA selection, friendly people! Came here in the afternoon with a friend and tried a few of their beers. The Inner Light is kind of the platonic ideal of a juicy IPA, and even got a thumbs up from my friend who generally hates IPAs. Also enjoyed Time's Arrow. They've got indoor and outdoor seating, but on the nice day we were there the inside was open to the outside. It made for a really relaxed environment, perfect for sitting, sipping, and talking.

My wife enjoyed OMF more than I did. Smaller than our first two stops, I felt a little cramped and claustrophobic inside. Beertenders were doing their job but didn't really put off a vibe of caring to be there. We each had a Baseglamp, again, my wife liked hers better. Really nothing else I wanted to try, so I just had a 4 oz. I might come back again if there was something else that sounded interesting. However, other places on Larimer that I enjoyed more.

Solid vibe Good service Pretty good beers Excellent merch Wow eighty five more more characters? What else can I say? Uh they had hot dogs for free on Mondays I think with a beer.

Overall I love this place. Raw in appearance. Smell of hops when I walked in the door. Staff not the most attentive, but overall beer that I tried was good. All the local vendors (both breweries and clothing shops) recommended. Worth a stop in my opinion.

Great vibe , great beer selection. The patio area was warm and inviting. People chatting it up. Great for people watching. The staff were friendly and inviting... Highly recommend this spot!

Probably my favorite brewery I've visited in Denver. Great indoor/outdoor space and awesome beer. I tried a couple tasters, one was a Belgian style and the other an award-winning light IPA. Both were great. They have a ton of variety when it comes to beer styles. I also noticed they have some fabulous merch for sale but I resisted this time. Cheers.

It's always hard to find breweries nowadays whose tap list has plenty of beers outside of IPAs, but this spot had such a great selection of styles. Lots of blended sours that were delicious, and even a yarrow beer (super historic ingredient). The taproom was super cute with a great outdoor area to enjoy the Denver air. This is a must stop

Stopped by OMF while touring around RiNo for some breweries - and were not disappointed! Beers were delicious (most ones we got were seasonal, heavy hitters). Service was friendly too. The pumpkin stout they initially poured us was off (either bottom of keg, but really off color) and they proactively came and found our table to give us a fresh pour (we didn't even have to ask!) Happy to go back to OMF next time in Denver!

Finally got yo check out this brewery many were telling me to hit up. This place has some really good and addictive IPAs. I got a nice glass of the Barrel Aged Imerial Stout that was on tap. and it was delicious. I keep trying to convince myself I don't like imperials but it's not working out for me . I tried the Smoky wheat beer also, because I love love Smoky libations, but this was not my favorite. To me this was a lot of smoke for a like beer like wheat beer, do my fault. I think it just messed w/ my mind heavy smoke & light beer. But not to worry there are tons of other great options on tap, do head on down to this spot. Number one thing I love is all the 90s hip hop playing in the back ground. The vibe was chill NYC in the 90s everyone just enjoy great beers, conversations, and chill atmosphere. Can't wait to comeback and try other beers on tap

Everything you could ask for in a brewery and more! The exterior is so fun. The environment is lively and the beer was perfect They have a lot of variety for brews and a lot of places to sit. The IPA I had was one of the best! There's so many breweries in Denver but if you have to choose one stop by OMF

I've come here a handful of times. It's one of the go-to stops when brewery hopping in Rino. When I came in today, I was perusing the menu. The heavy set black man was working and came across as if he was unenthused and almost bothered by me being there. There was no greeting or smile. I asked to try the fizz and he pretty much told me no. His response was what size do you want? It was uncomfortable/awkward. I went ahead and ordered a beer. 10mins later my friends arrived. Once again, no greeting. When they were ready to order he ordered them over to him (two steps to the right of where they were standing) overall, not nice or welcoming and we're spending our money here. Do better.

I've been wanting to issue five stars to a Denver brewery for a while and I found one! Our Mutual Friend has an excellent Festbier! I fell in love with it immediately! Maybe it's the malt, the Troubadour malt or perhaps it's the Tettnang or Crystal hops that makes this beer a stand out for me. Granted I haven't had Festbier much bit notice it seems to be an emerging beer style but despite being relatively new to this beer style I do know what I love and this Festbier definitely qualifies!

I can't believe it's taken me so long to visit OMF! I feel like I've been to every other business around RiNo. Came here for a quick beer with a friend and immediately fell in love with the aesthetic, beer selection, and casual atmosphere of the brewery. Especially fun to sit in the outdoor patio area when the weather is nice. Plenty of space for everyone. Whatever beer I had was delicious, and now it's one of my go-to breweries in Denver!

For a small place this brewery had a great selection of types of beer. They had a blueberry sour that was very good, and while I personally didn't try the other beers my better half had a Hazy IPA and also really enjoyed it. It was pretty packed inside when we went. I saw they do have an outdoor area as well, but it was just a bit too chilly on our visit to enjoy. The service was fantastic and the price was good as well. Overall this place will make the rotation of downtown breweries for me.

I don't like breweries much but this place has a wide variety of options and their selection is creative. I'm not a beer person but I do like coming here then and again just because the product is so good

For a heavy beer town like Denver this place just doesn't hit the mark. The space is small and smells/looks like a commons at a liberal college. The beer is okay but nothing worth going out of your way for. The staff are really just beer hipsters who forget they are really just douche bags pretending to be brew masters. There are so many better places to visit in RINO. Unless you are one of the bartenders roommates then it might be a good experience. Also, no WiFi ? Wtf?

I came here close to last call so I couldn't get the flight of beers I wanted. So I ordered two beers and went to sit. I liked the vibe of the taproom and the mural on the outside was great. My beers were really good. I got the super blue sour and the Clemens smoked lager. I wish I could've tasted some more beer but it was too late.

Our Mutual Friend isn't a huge spot but does have a nice outdoor (dog friendly) patio. They have a wide variety of beer options including sours which is my fav. Service was quick and friendly. My sour wasn't as flavorful as I would have hoped but I'd still come back to hang with friends and try another sour option!

Fun place in the River north district of Denver. Love the options for outside or indoor seating. Cool bar inside and friendly staff, we tried the Neon nail a juicy ipa with citra and galaxy hops, Times arrows a west coast IPA and Clever creature, a double dry hopped hazy ipa. They were all very tasty, I enjoyed the Clever creature best. There's parking available on the street around Larimer. Definitely recommend this place for delicious brews.

Nice brewery with great beers, good atmosphere and friendly service. They provide water, allow dogs and have gender neutral restrooms. Beautiful open air feel. Good vibes on a Sunday afternoon. Their Mexican style imperial stout Lava Loop is extraordinary. They have a variety of styles: ESB, saison, sour, pale ale, IPA, porter and stouts. Cheers

Our Mutual Friend (OMF) has a great vibe. It's small enough to feel like a neighborhood bar but has enough seating indoors and outdoors for a good crowd. Its atmosphere is modern and comfortable without feeling commercial and sterilized like many nearby breweries. The quality of the beer is great--including some I'd give five stars. This is one of my favorite breweries in Colorado. They offer many different varieties, including some dark and heavies, like Snail Boat, a barrel-aged imperial stout.

Checked this place out on a Tuesday evening after a recommendation. It was noticeably more crowded compared to the rest of the places on Larimer. There was weird funky smell near one side of the bar and there was less merch available. Besides that our experience was good overall and the majority of us enjoyed our beverages. Check this place out next time you're nearby.

Excellent brewery here on Larimer!! They have a big outdoor patio and plenty of seating inside. Their beer is amazing! They have great selections. Most of them 6% and up! Super cozy inside and a BBQ place right next door if you get hungry.

This was the second stop of our beer hopping adventure in Denver. We walked all the way here from Great Divide Brewing Co., which was about 15 minutes. OMF has a great beer selection. We sat outside after ordering our beers because it was full inside. My dad had the smoked saison and I had a mango line sour. Unfortunately I forgot the names of them and I wish I kept track. But, the mango lime sour was excellent. After you finish your drink, you can drop off your empty glasses at the window outside. Parking is limited, so it's highly recommended that you take an Uber or a Lyft to and from here. They do not serve food, but they sometimes have a food truck. Look out for one if you're here. Great brewery. Would definitely come back again.

Coronavirus can't keep a great brewery down; still my favorite brewery. During COVID, I'd been hesitant to order pickup, assuming there'd be crowds drinking by the pickup window. I decided to drive by shortly after they open and assess the situation. It looked okay, so I placed an order online from my car and headed in for pickup. As with Gratitude and other events, they have someone checking IDs and seating people. I didn't event have to walk up to the window--the host went inside and grabbed my order. I was in and out within 2 minutes. My husband & I look forward to Gratitude each year, and we were disappointed to not have it this year. So I picked up a Gratitude 7--barleywine aged in whiskey barrels with coffee and vanilla--plus some other favorites. Now that I know that pickup is easy and safe (OMF looks out for its staff's health as well as its patrons), I'll be back for more Gratitude while it lasts, and some other great beer for my fridge.

Good brewery. It has a cool atmosphere and patio. Our Mutual Friend is a nice place for hanging out and sipping. Has a pretty big beer menu. The place isn't that big so there may be a wait. Casual feel. It almost seems like a garage. They have a garage door on the side so maybe it actually was one. It makes it a cool atmosphere. The patio is nice to sit when it's warm enough, but they have a fireplace in winter. I came here with a girl. We thought the beers sounded interesting. I had the Mojave Phone Booth. It's about $8 for a pint. The has a light citrusy hoppy taste. I would love to hang out here a lot, it seems like a pretty fun place. The beer is good and the building seems like a place to hang out like the backyard or something.

Offers a wide range of styles. Awesome merchandise. Would come back to try more drinks.

These cats have become one of the premier stops on Larimer. I've probably been to OMF more than any brewery, sans one or two. Somehow I'm usually in the area and locals and out of towners love it. On a more important note, they brew great beer. My particular favorites ranging from their Hazy IPA's to their Saisons. The Inner Light Hazy Pale Ale is one of my undeniable go-to's, though they always have interesting Brett Saisons worth adventuring for. During COVID-19, I believe OMF has done a wonderful job adapting. They starting canning many of their beers, launched a sleek online store and adhere to social distancing guidelines very seriously. What else? There's a little barbecue spot called Owlbear BBQ right next door and it's a match made in heaven when you combine great local beer with killer 'que. OMF is one of the cooler places to hang out in RiNo. It's usually crowded and though it might be harder to get a table since their indoor taproom is currently closed, it's worth the wait. Cheggitout!

Excellent beer. Their smoked strong dark was phenomenal. Excellent sours as well. Fun atmosphere as well.

Dog friendly patio and great beers- basically everything you need for a good Saturday in Denver! We tried the maple syrup quad, which wasn't as sweet as it sounds, great balance of flavors. My husband got the neon juicy hazy ipa, which was tasty but very hoppy (as to be expected). My friend got the blueberry sour, and said it was the perfect amount of sour for her. Appreciated the ability to bring bbq from pit fiend over to the patio to enjoy both!

Such a cute brewery! We came here for the keep the glass night and it was so fun! They had indoor and outdoor seating. Our mutual friend had a variety of beers to choose from. I picked a sour beer and it was very delicious. We brought cards to play on a rainy night and it was the prefect chill hangout spot. I would definitely come back again!

Beer was ok. Ambiance was fun. Bartender was great. Menu was missing a few summer style beers - full of winter beers IMO!

They have a cool patio area so if you're up for drinking outdoors, this is a good option. The tap room is connected to the patio by a garage style door which gives the tap room a very casual and chill vibe. It wasn't too busy on the warm afternoon we stopped in. I was really pleased with the options and had to take a moment to narrow down my flight choices. A few things that caught my eye on the draft list: Camisado Cream Ale, Blackberry Gose, Porcini Brown Ale, Nitro Yonksbier, and Stepwell Porter. It was ultimately the brown ale that got the cut. The blackberry gose had enough of a hint of salty and was a favorite for both my husband and me. I would come back for it, no doubt. Maybe it's the name or the colorful exterior, but there's something just inviting about this place, and I think it's worth a spot on your brewery tour.

I came here because I heard that they had great beer. It's a small location but that wasn't a problem because it wasn't very busy. So I took an Uber here and the outside was pretty cool looking with a small patio. So I sat at the bar and the female bar tender asked me for my I.D. I was thinking huh???? My I.D??? Ok fine I was just tired of showing my I.D at every brewery. I think Denver might of had some issues with underage drinking. Anyway I got a few full tasters and I really wasn't impressed with the beer. I'm not saying it wasn't good but it wasn't for me. Then the female bartender really didn't say much to me. I didn't need her to ask me my life story but at least how's your day going? Anyway for me this spot was just ok would I give them another try? Yeah most likely.

Love!! Colorful outside, cool and cozy inside. The music is a cool rock mix & some throwbacks! Outdoor patio is fun for a perfect summer night.
