The Best Aspen Breweries to Visit During Your Stay 

 Aspen Brewing Company 

One of the most famous places to get excellent beer is Aspen Brewing Company. This hotspot opened back in 2008 and was the first contemporary craft brewery in Aspen! Today, you can find barrel-aged brews like the Cougar (an exquisite aged-blonde) and unique seasonals that will make you want to come back again and again. Plus, their downtown taproom is open daily from 4 to 7 p.m. and often has live music.

Hops Culture 

Another popular brewery in Aspen is Hops Culture. It’s a great place to go for cold beer and comfort food, especially if you’ve been exploring Aspen all day. Sit back, relax, and admire their amazing 30-line draft system. We highly recommend trying the food too, because everything is made from scratch. (One of our favorites is the Hops Cubano sandwich.) The brewery and gastropub is open daily from 11:30 a.m to 10 p.m. 

Highlands Alehouse 

Are you visiting Aspen during the winter to hit the slopes? What if we told you that you can enjoy some of the best beer in Aspen right on the mountain? That’s right — Highlands Alehouse has a prime location. You can take a break from the snow and sip on one of their 16 draft beers. The brewery also offers mouthwatering food to help you regain some energy before heading back to the slopes. Everything on the menu is made from scratch, including the pizzas, burgers, sandwiches, tacos, and more.

Note: The Alehouse is only open during the winter, December 1st through April 14th. You can visit seven days a week from 11 a.m. to 8:30 p.m.

5 of the Best Things to Do in Aspen in November

1. Get Outside

November is known for a few flurries throughout the month, but you can still find time to get outside! As long as you bundle up and make sure it’s not going to snow, you can still hit the trails in the beginning of the month. The Rio Grande Trail is always fun, and Maroon Creek Road closes to vehicles during this time. You can take a fat bike ride to Maroon Lake on it!

2. Time to Dine

If you’re looking to get out of the chilly November weather, head to one of the many restaurants in town to enjoy a delicious meal and a drink or two. Aspen is known for its incredible chefs and mixologists, and dining around town is a favorite pastime of locals and visitors alike. 

3. Visit the Aspen Art Museum

Spend some time at the Aspen Art Museum this November. This museum focuses on contemporary pieces that rotate throughout the year. See exhibitions of drawings, paintings, sculptures, multimedia installations, and electronic media.

4. Head to the Belly Up Aspen

Belly Up Aspen is one of Aspen’s most popular music venues and stays open all year round. Even though the venue is small, some very popular artists have played here in the past such as Passion Pit, Steve Aoki, and the Flaming Lips. See who is playing this November and get your tickets!
