Coors Brewing Company in Golden, Colorado

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Hamm Homes

coorsCoors Brewing Company in Golden, Colorado

We are lucky to have the Coors Brewing Company just about a half hour west of Denver at 13th and Ford Street in Golden. 

Not only does Coors provide many jobs for the Colorado community but they also offer great tours of the facility.  The tours are free to the public Monday through Saturday from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm.  The tour lasts about 40 minutes and gives the public an inside look at the brewing process.  The reward at the end of the tour is complimentary samples in the tasting room.  There is also a gift shop at the end for those who want a souvenir other than the free beer.  coors

If you are visiting Colorado, the brewery is a great place to stop. 

Of course, I prefer Hamm’s beer but I haven’t seen that since the 70’s.

Of course you would prefer Hamms Mr. Hamm.   I remember seeing it in the late 70's and early 80's when I worked in a grocery store, but haven't seen it since.   Of course I haven't looked for it either.

Hey Will -

Great Localism post.  Gosh I haven't thought about Coors beer in a zillion years.  Well maybe not that long.  I recall when it first came out it was the brew to have!

Best regards from The Q

So funny how I am taking pics of bridges and you are taking pics of the brewery.  Must be a guy thing.  Great localism post.  Hey - didn't you also take a pic of the statue of Adolph Coors?  What happened to that????

Will, I had to laugh at BB's comment, I thought the same thing! I'm glad you two get to see things and have a little down time while you're out and about!

My brother-in law is a regional director for Budweiser so needless to say that is what we have in our refrigerator (maybe sneak a little different off brand in occasionally when we know he won't be around).  Coors location should be great for your employment base!

Will,

Coors provides great job opportunities for the people in CO and that's very good! We need to get the economy stimulated with jobs and home buying!

Will:  This is my kind of tour.  Thanks for sharing.  The area is fortunate to have all of the jobs provided by this facility.

Have a great week and be sure to have your camera in hand to record those special moments.

Thanks all, of course, coors is a great beer.  I use to have friends in other states that could not get it in the 70's and they all liked it when I would have it when they came to visit.  The good old days!

Will.. I have a Coors  *T* shirt.  OK, you might think BIG DEAL, right?  Well, I got this shirt back in the 70's when I went out West for the first time.  At that point, Coors did NOT ship over the Mississippi River.  When I wore the tee shirt back East it was a hit.. no one ever heard of the beer. 

It tasted GREAT then... and still does.  Wouldn't mind going on a tour of the company now.
