The Yeti is a notoriously scarce monster, only emerging from the highlands occasionally to haunt the dreams of small Nepalese children. While its Oak Aged, Chocolate Oak Aged, Espresso Oak Aged, Belgian and classic Imperial Stout siblings may look nicer–rest assured, they’re equally fearsome. This Wednesday, Leap Day, we will be celebrating a rare day with a rare beast. Join Great Divide between [...]

We’re not sure if it was the great Romantic poet Percy Bysshe Shelley or the master of modern prose Rebecca Black who once said, “It’s Friday, Friday, gotta get down on Friday,” but we couldn’t agree more. Join us this Friday, October 14th, for our Awesomn Autumn release party. It’s that time of year again [...]

The Tap Room expansion added 450 square feet of swilling space and will be a welcome addition to a previously oft-cramped bar. As the cold weather approaches, the extra [...]

This beer gained momentous popularity when it debuted last summer and, according to brewery sources, the Great Divide brewing team has brewed five times as much Rumble as they did last year.

This article is part of a running series of historical event/ beer pairings. Andrew Jackson: America’s favorite president. OK, so more accurately, he was a highly controversial, as-much-hated-as-venerated Tennessean who happened to become president. I find him a more nuanced, tragic character; a victim of his own demons. Regardless, he was portrayed as a ruffian [...]

It can be daunting to enter your favorite liquor store and see a plethora of bottled beer on the shelves, waiting to be gulped down. While many customers choose beer based on recommendation, label art or past tastings, there is one other important way to choose beer—bottling date. Purchasing out-of-date beer is a lose-lose. You [...]

We are happy to announce a new arrival in our expanding Tank Farm. Today, we welcomed a 300-barrel brite tank which, to put it simply, puts the bubbles in the beer. This tank is from a company called JV Northwest, located outside of Portland, Oregon. We are excited about our continuing expansion and look forward [...]

Beer and history go hand-in-hand (and I’m not just referring to my preferred method of late-night term-paper-writing or the proportionate relationship between consumption of beer and the languid pontificating of a rambling history buff). We love to fetishize the Founding Fathers as ale-swilling ruffians—underdog beer-lovers against a stuffy monarchy. Any victory for the nascent USA [...]
