I grew up in Littleton, Colorado, a South Denver suburb with a lot of shopping malls and elementary schools. It’s a place fondly referred to as Littlefun. Now that Breckenridge Brewery is building an 85,000-square-foot, $35 million brewery and farm-to-table restaurant on twelve of Littleton’s acres, though, my hometown might need a new nickname.
Breckenridge Brewery, which started as a small pub in Breckenridge, Colorado, in 1990, has expanded to Denver and created a 35-state distribution footprint. The current Breckenridge Brewery in Denver brewery on Kalamath Street has hit maximum capacity, operating 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to meet demand.
I toured the new digs in September, when I watched the thirteenth of sixteen 400-barrel fermentation tanks get dropped into the facility. Here are more numbers on the new digs.
