Before diving into the world of politics, I took a chance, like so many small business owners do, and opened Denver's very first brewpub: Wynkoop Brewing Company. At Wynkoop, we were known for our unique beers like the Timberland Pale and Sagebrush Stout, which we offered at just $2.25 per pint – a great deal compared to mainstream options!
Wynkoop was more than just a brewpub for me. It was a place where people with diverse viewpoints could come together, united by a shared love of good beer. It was a community where we proved time and again that there’s hardly anything that can’t be sorted out over a refreshing pint.
Below are some nostalgic photos from the Wynkoop’s early days!
