"Starting as a mostly Belgian-style house, this RiNo heavyweight has evolved over its 10-plus years in business to wow crowds with a little bit of everything, from kettle sours like Blackberry Raspberry Soirée to a holidaytime Candy Cane Porter — though its robust barrel-aging program may be the key to its soul and its enduring popularity, yielding barleywines, quadrupels, imperial stouts, and more. (Note that there’s a second location at 6021 Washington Street.)" - Eater Staff

Stopped by for a beer with the wife. Great selection of craft draft beers and some bottled beers for those who want to take beer home. Nice outdoor seating area, and they are doing food paring events often. Enjoyed the kettle corn popcorn and friendly patrons at the counter. The beer tender was nice and helpful.

Delicious brunch food that was played well! The Ciders were unique and the best Ciders I have ever tasted. Service was amazing-so kind and attentive, thank you Dori. Definitely returning.

Best brewery in town and a top notch barrel aging program. Wouldn't be a member anywhere else!🍻

Nice place. Some outside seating on two sides of the place. The inside has two seating areas. One space shares the space with a small brew house system. The other was much larger and also had games for people to share. Bottles and cans also available for to go purchase. Parking might be an issue but what business down in that area doesn’t have this problem. Not far away is a parking garage what advertised $5 a day parking for weekends. Also near buy is a park and ride. A bit of a walk but then you can work off some of your beer drinking. They had a food truck there when we stopped by but they left a bit early but still a lot of food options around that area.

A wonderful selection and some of the best stouts you will find around!

Excellent beers if you're into big beers. They excel at doing big barrel-aged stouts and barleywines. The lighter beers are good too, as are the tacos from the taco trailer outside. Great staff too. Dog friendly, since they don't serve their own food.

Not a bad little brewery. My wife and i stopped in on Veterans Day. She really enjoyed the raspberry sour, and I had a glass of RiNo Standard. It wasn’t bad, I would have like to have seen an amber on the menu, but that’s also my favs. Clean and new feeling with a very modern pub ambiance. You can just sit with a friend over beers and a card game, or bring the laptop and get some work done.

My favorite brewery in Denver and they have my all-time favorite beer. Very low key and relaxed vibe here. There are occasionally food trucks and they have a ton of indoor and outdoor seating.

This is my new favorite Colorado brewery. Absolutely killer stouts. Not just standard barrel aged stuff; truly unique strong stouts with complex flavors and huge variety. Any fans of Oskar blues, Avery, the bruery (California) would be wise to scope this place out. Bonus: there is a rad climbing gym a block away

We did a walking tour of the city so we were kinda tired at the end of the evening. We decided to check out this brewery as our car was parked very close to this place. Nice ambiance and service staff were good too. They have a food truck with Mexican food as an option if you're hungry. I just ordered American lager. They have some board games and other bar games to play with friends and family. Nice seating area and pretty comfortable too.

Such good service and good drink selection. I had to take a meeting and the bar tender was nice enough to turn down the music in the room we were in so I could attend on zoom. They don't really serve food but they had a taco truck today which was great .

This brewery has a great location. Love the neighborhood and that it's close to other breweries. The bartender was nice and welcoming. I ordered a flight of four beers. The beers were okay but nothing extraordinary. I'm glad I came and tasted what I did.

Very friendly staff at this place. This location is a lot smaller than the other. They have events like trivia night and most important they're dog friendly.

I love this brewery! I am a big fan of dark beer, especially imperial stouts, which can be hard to find and if you do, there is usually only one option. River North specializes in creative dark beers that give me a goth/heavy metal vibe - which I love! My only complaint is the random country music playlist that is a real vibe killer. You'd expect guns and roses or white zombie to be playing, or maybe that's just my dream. Other than that please check this place out!

Bartender w the pretty blue eyes on Saturday around 530pm was EXCELLENT. This place was busy af and he let you know when you were next, made small talk when he could, helped us find our next stop (we wanted to watch Ohio state play).

The beer is enough of a reason to seek this brewery out, but the beertender we had is a rock star. Jessica was extremely knowledgeable about their beers and is clearly a craft beer enthusiast. The selection of barrel aged and strong ales is unbelievable. River North is a must stop if you're in Denver.

Good variety of beers, comfortable space and friendly staff. Not as crazy as some of the spots in the midst of RINO which I appreciate. Would definitely go back here to try some different beers. There was a taco truck when we were there but didn't try it so looks like having beer and dinner there is sometimes an option too.

Cute place, yummy beer and decent service. More than I tend to expect these days. Would go back.

Loved it! The bartender was fantastic & very knowledgeable. He works Sundays only, but has been in the industry 15 years and explained to us & answered any questions we had. The dragonfly gose was amazing!

River North's darks are phenomenal. It's really their specialty. This location of theirs has a decent sized patio with a big garage door that opens to it. They always have some funky beers as well. The vibe is more chill than the rest of Rino and the outdoor tables are all picnic tables so I don't love that but appreciate the size of the space.

River North has been around a while..they were one of the first breweries I got hooked on when I moved to Denver 8 years ago. It is great to see them back in their original neighborhood!! The new taproom is great! Right by the 38th and Blake RTD station. They have a small pilot brew-system here (the main brewing facility is a few miles to the north). I am a huge fan of their barrel program..they do some amazing and unique beers. Their normal tap beers are also very tasty! The taproom has a front area with garage doors and a nice dog friendly patio. There is usually a food truck by the patio as well. They also have an additional seating area in the back that can be used for private events as well. The bar-top is a really cool upcycled wood and the general aesthetics are very nice and relaxing as well. The service at River North has always been amazing. The new location is no exception. Even during happy hour on opening week the service was friendly and quick!

I went to River North brewery with my coworkers the other day. They had a good selection of beers and they weren't too expensive. I got the Hello Darkness IPA because while I don't love IPA's, I do love dark beers. This was a beer I will definitely get again, but not sure I if I could have several at a time. They have a few beers that are above 10% which is fun. Ive heard they usually have a food truck, which is nice. Unfortunately it wasn't there when I went and would've been nice. Would be great to have had the option for more snacks than their popcorn. Overall, this was a good spot and I will be back given I work in the neighborhood.

(both locations) Excellent beers. One of my favorite breweries in Denver. On point with flavors, especially stouts and barrel aged beers. You can't go wrong with any beer here, in my opinion. They also have a great atmosphere! great patio for dogs (non-covid).

It's a beautiful day in Denver! And I am 100% not ready for winter. My favorite part of summer here? The patios!!! And the alcohol served on them . Case in point, River North Brewery became an instant favorite this summer. It's the perfect spot to people watch, chill out and hang with your peeps AND fur babies. There's usually a food truck right outside and the beer? It's SO GOOD! I am not a huge beer person but I tell you, on this particular day, you wouldn't have known that - I was almost glass for glass with my babe (annnd may have needed a water and snack by the time we left ). The staff are super friendly and overall, it's just a cool spot not overrun with some of the normal RiNo crowds. I can't recommend them enough and will definitely be a regular. Cheers!

So I decided to go back and give them a second chance and I have to say that I'm glad I did. Their beers are quite solid and they have a really nice tap room. It's a bit off the beaten path in RiNo but it's worth stopping by if you're into craft beers. Try the Barrel Aged Quad! It was absolutely delicious. ------------------- Tried to go at 2pm on a Sunday and the place was completely closed with no notice that they wouldn't be open.

First, the beer is delicious. My favorite is the Mountain Haze, but I enjoy the IPA and was turned on to the Fifteener double IPA on my visit, which I will continue to enjoy again and again...not heavy or cloying, and it has just the right amount of bitterness. The new taproom is great, and I like the way the bar is configured (with different angles) so it encourages cross-conversation among patrons. And if you don't have tvs to distract patrons who don't want to talk, the music better be great...and thanks to Zach, it was. I'll be back, again and again.
