Brewery Tour Itinerary in Fort Collins (Old Town Tour)

Every town has a certain something that makes it special. For Fort Collins, that’s craft beer and the culture that has grown around it. Located just 60 minutes north of Denver, Fort Collins produces 70% of the craft beer made in Colorado, which is ranked 4th in the nation for the number of microbreweries per capita. It’s no wonder that people call Fort Collins “The Craft Beer Capital of Colorado.” Each of the 20-plus breweries in Fort Collins offers its own ambiance and a unique experience for your palate. Whether you fancy yourself a seasoned connoisseur or are brand new to sampling craft beer, you’ll find something to suit your tastes. You can explore and experience the breweries in many ways – pedal off on two wheels with Beer and Bike Tours or simply head out on a self-guided tour via bike or with a designated driver. You can make your own walking tour in Old Town thanks to the close proximity of a few breweries.
