Kokopelli Beer Company

Since beer is made from grain and hops, it makes sense that Christine Wares picked Kokopelli, the Hopi god of agriculture and fertility, as the inspiration for her new brewery, Kokopelli Beer Company. The 4,000-square-foot Westminster-based brewpub, which seats nearly 100 people, specializes in lower-alcohol session beers, which are around 5 percent ABV or less, including two gluten-free versions; it also offers hand-tossed and specialty pizzas, Austrian pretzels, appetizers, sandwiches and salads.
