    The ten best Colorado beers of 2011

    Colorado breweries released dozens of amazing beers this year, further expanding their range and making once-exotic beers easy to find and enjoy. A few stood out above the rest, though.

    Reader: Baking bread takes as much talent as making a perfect sauce

    ​Many chefs are sour on baking, but enough sour beer convinced Patrick Langlois to come up with a gingerbread cookie recipe that worked perfectly with Crooked Stave Wild Wild Brett Orange. That no-baking chef business gets a rise out of Mantonat:

    Zingers is the latest restaurant casualty in the DU neighborhood

    Lori Midson​Zingers may have turned out some of the city's best green chile, but it wasn't enough to save the joint, wedged into the far corner of a small-mall near the University of Denver, from shuttering. A sign, taped to the front door, thanks customers for their business, while owner Den ... More >>

    Reader: Mile High fumbles its beer choices...where are the craft brews?

    For obvious reasons, the Denver Broncos are unexpectedly fun to watch this year -- but unfortunately, the beers available at Sports Authority Field are decidedly less so to drink. We may live in the Napa Valley of beer, but the Mile High Stadium crew definitely fumbled the brews available there. A ... More >>

    I-70 pace cars: The latest un-American development that needs to stop

    Flickr​The Colorado Department of Transportation has approved police "pace-cars" for Sundays in January to improve the flow of ski traffic on I-70. Let's forget the logistics and the arguments about whether a police car driving at a steady rate while flashing its light will actually "harmonize ... More >>

    Upslope Pale Ale makes handmade pasta worth the effort

    Patrick Langlois​While making a pasta dish to cheer up my girlfriend last week, I thought to myself, "Why not make my own pasta?" I'd been fortunate enough to taste fresh pasta and knew that it's vastly more satisfying than dried, but I had yet to make it myself -- but soon became determined t ... More >>

    The British Bulldog reopens after renovations; painted Punch Bowl benches remain

    ​The British Bulldog is back in business after a quick renovation job and, as promised, it reopened just in time for the start of the English Premier League season, which kicked off this past weekend.

    Fort Collins Maibock, cured sausages and peach-pepper jam make perfect party favors

    Patrick Langlois​A good friend and neighbor was having people over for dinner the other night, and even though I was told there would be plenty of food and that I needn't worry about cooking, I wanted to bring something anyway, so I swung by Curtis Park Delicatessen for some expert advice. T ... More >>

    Patrick Langlois​Residents of the Ballpark neighborhood finally have a place to go on a grocery run. Dean's Urban Market, a grocery store in the heart of the Ballpark neighborhood, opened last week, and it's certainly a welcome addition to the hood. Owner James Dean owns another location in ...

    Pasta carbonara and Fort Collins Brewery's Wheat Wine satiate a strong craving

    Philip Poston​I don't cook with meat very often, due to laziness and a limited budget, but every so often, I simply can't resist the basic human urge for pork. I can do without beef or chicken painlessly enough, but for some reason, the thought of pig evokes a deep, inexplicable desire for fle ... More >>

    Test your "metal" with a cast iron skillet and Golden City beer

    Philip Poston​A friend called me a while back to let me know he was coming to Denver for an indefinite amount of time and needed a place to crash. That's just the way the guy is: spontaneous, which is one of his many charming traits (his strong Southern drawl is another). We met and bonded out ... More >>

    Tuna salad and Avery's White Rascal make a good case for a condiment

    Philip Poston​When I was a kid, I hated mayonnaise -- or at least thought that I did. It looked gross, and that was reason enough for me to avoid the stuff for nearly twenty years. But once I started falling in love with food -- coincidentallly around the same time I was legally allowed to i ... More >>

    Philip Poston​At the beginning of this year, my thirtieth coincidentally, I quit my longtime job in the craft beer industry to pursue a career in writing, despite strong disapproval from pretty much everyone I knew. Most of my friends thought I had the coolest job ever working for a microbrewe ... More >>

    Goat's milk ice cream, rhubarb compote and Upslope Brown Ale will cool you down

    Philip Poston​When I moved to Boulder almost six years ago, I was a virgin to the organic, local and crunchy West Coast vibe that wafts over the Rocky Mountains. Being from the much less breezy South, I grew up eating very well, but was not at all familiar with the pleasure of doing so conscio ... More >>

    Philip Poston​An old friend was coming over for lunch the other day, and I wanted to make something special for him. He's a family man who works his ass off to support them and, needless to say, doesn't get to hang out with the fellas very often. I had some duck eggs from Grant Family Farms ... More >>

    Philip Poston​A good friend of mine frequents a certain awful fast-food chain as often as twice a week, and when I asked him why, he answered that it's cheap and convenient, and that since he's a student, "cheap" and "convenient" are requisites for a meal. I understood his motives, but I've al ... More >>
