Crooked Stave Barrel Cellar

Crooked Stave Barrel Cellar opened in a warehouse business park in September 5, 2012, as an outlet for Chad Yakobson’s Crooked Stave Artisan Beer Project, which he moved from Fort Collins to Denver. Although Yakobson, doesn’t actually brew his beer on site, he does ferment it in wooden barrels with various yeasts and souring agents. And that’s the key for Crooked Stave, which specializes in sour and wild ales. The tasting room, which has a bar and about fifteen seats, serves five to ten beers and is acting as a placeholder until Yakobson opens a full scale brewery elsewhere in town in 2013.
