Excellent selection of fine craft beer from around the country. A thoughtfully curated local Colorado selection also fills the fridges. Dont sleep on the wine selections, they are not to be missed either!TJ was extremely helpful and a truly down to earth human with such good vibes that you could chat with for hours. He went above and beyond to help me find exactly what I was craving. I cant recommend this place enough!

After a few days of exploring on our first trip from Austin to Denver, and visiting a few breweries. We needed to find somewhere to get some local brews.We pull up to the place a nice white building you can spot pretty easily. When we walked in we were greeted by the guys behind the counter, as well as rows of wine, and beer fridges. Perfect since my friends also had our girlfriends who were also looking for wine. Immediately my eyes were drawn to the Electric Jellyfish from Pinthouse (One of my personal favorites) for $19.99 when it is $18.99 in Austin. I tell you I felt like a kid in a candy store seeing all the beers to choose from. One of the workers asked if we needed any help finding anything, and was able to recommend a few beers after mentioning I liked EJ. My buddies and I ended up with a Psychedelic Disco, Juicy Bits, and N00b. (I was too busy drinking to N00b to take a picture) All very good beer, just what we were looking for.We went back a few days later to pick up some more beers including a Juice Caboose that one of the guys recommended that stole the show! And yes if you break up the 4 pack into a 2 pack it is more but thats the case at any store that lets you do that.After experiencing Craft Alley and meeting the guys that work there you can tell theyre doing it for the love of the craft. Very friendly and knowledgeable people. Will definitely be returning my next trip to Denver to try out more of their beer!

Stopped by to grab some beers and was met by the friendly worker who made great suggestions and was very knowledgeable of all the local breweries. Loved that we could break packs of beers down into 2 packs! We will definitely be back in the near future!

Craft Alley supplied the beer for my wedding this summer and they were perfect! Rachel was easy to work with and our guests appreciated getting to try a variety of Colorado craft beer. I liked that someone could stick with a basic style of beer all night, but still try more than one. Rachel coordinated with the caterer/venue, and everything was seamless. Definitely recommend for catered events (as well as everyday beer drinking :) )

This place is the best! They offer an excellent and unique selection of beer. Their website is fantastic with the ability to sort easily by type and by Untapped rating. Its easy to choose online with same-day pick-up or delivery. You can also just drop by and order from the open window. Its a great and eclectic set-up mixed in among the other amazing shops and restaurants on Denvers South Pearl. Highly recommend!

One of my favorite places for beer and wine! They have enormous selections of each and are incredibly knowledgeable about their products. We always find something delicious, and the option to buy 2-packs in order to sample lots of beer is really cool.

First, this is a great service and they have a wide delivery range. They have hard to find beer and they get regular shipments. Unfortunately, it seems there are two sides to Craft Alley. If I had written a review just a week ago, it wouldve been 5 stars. I have ordered from them multiple times. However, my most recent experiences have not been good.It all starts with communication. Their phone number is currently out of service (likely due to their upcoming move), which wouldnt be a huge deal if when you emailed with a question or problem you got a response in any sort of timely manner. On my most recent order I encountered a strange error on their website, I emailed a question and didnt get a response for several hours, and all they said was the beer must be low in stock. I tried again the next day, and magically the website worked just fine. I set my delivery for yesterday from 6-8pm, and I will usually get a confirmation email that the beer is coming and a text as they get closer. I got the email, but never received a text. 8pm comes and goes, I give it till 8:30 and decided to email about the problem, the phone number is still out of service. I received no response, and I have no idea where my order is, or what happened. If your phone line is going to be down, then your other forms of communication need to be prompt, especially when there is a missing delivery that I pre-paid fIm now stuck waiting until someone decides to respond to my email about my missing order.UPDATES: I am updating my review to 5 stars. Every interaction I have had with Craft Alley since has been great. They made the situation right and havent missed a step. Highly recommend this service.

They have a great selection of beers that you cant get anywhere else! Lots of local beers as well. They also have a good selection of wines and liquors. Always a great place to stop to stock up for the weekend!

Review №14

They have a good selection of beers, but it’s the price that really made me stop going. Without a good reason they charge nearly full price of a 4 pack for just 2 beers. Example, right now they have a beer that sells for $20, 4 cans, at any other store, they’re charge $17 for 2 cans. Save your money and go elsewhere.

Just a heads up to everyone about their current set up. You can order online and pick it up at the window, but the guy handing you the product and chatting with you about it wasn’t wearing a mask when I went.I was also a little disappointed that I placed an order a week and a half in advance, called about it before I went to pick it up, and when I got there was told something I ordered wasn’t in stock. They offered to swap it out, which I agreed to, but then saw later that the swap was for a beer that was $5 cheaper.Selection is great and they seem like nice guys but I don’t anticipate coming back in the next few months.

Craft Alley is the best place in Denver to try different beers from a wide range of breweries - Very knowledgeable staff with great recommendations. They get new/fresh beers from breweries very soon after release and often have the best collaborations being produced without having to drive to the various breweries across the state - Highly recommend.

My daughter gave me a gift card for their “Beer Drop” service. Had to register my card to pay the delta between the service and the actual cost (not cool). They signed me up for another subscription service without me knowing and sent a second unwanted round of beer. They have refused to take it back or reverse the unauthorized card to my card - difficult and in customer oriented - I recommend you stay away. Have had to engage my credit card company and the BBB to try to recover their fraudulent charge.

Review №18

Our server tried to scam us by trying to charge us double the price of the beer as written on the display, and then feigned ignorance when we called him out. He tried to charge us $32 for two cans of larger, and two cans of IPA, which were labelled at $5.99 and $6.99 a pair, respectively. We assume he was trying to pocket the extra money. Its a real shame as there is a good selection. We wasted about half an hour there carefully selecting the beer, using the advertised price points as guidance, and would advise customers and distributors to avoid this extremely dubious and unethical business.

Cute little beer shop. Couldnt go inside due to COVID but Alexa did a great job of recommending solid beers based on our tastes.Two pack was $15.10 here. Bought a 4 pack of the same at another spot for $19. So maybe a bit pricey but good overall

Craft alley is fully legit and absolutely one of a kind. If you have one iota of interest in CO craft beer you simply cannot miss this place. Most of the beer you cant find anywhere else but the local taproom. The beer garden is great weekend fun... and by the way... they can ship the beer to any doorstep in america.

Such a solid place with the coolest staff. I BUY ALL MY LIQUOR HERE! Ask for Annabelle, shes a rockstar! All her recommendations are excellent, which makes sense, i guess, because they carry great stuff. one last thing, i showed up after they closed ON A SUNDAY, and the owner/worker was packing up his car, and he saw my frustration at having just missed them, and he said no worries, man, i got you! and he opened up just to let me buy my sunday supply! like i said, cool staff and excellent selection!!

This place has a huge selection of crowlers from breweries all over the front range. The beer is fresh, and the staff are knowledgeable. Its a five star place except for one problem:They have this beer delivery service powered by Beer Drop, which is shady af. Its easy to sign up but unnecessarily difficult to cancel. You can make all sorts of modifications to your account through their online portal, but you cannot cancel your membership. To cancel, you must contact Beer Drop via email and request to cancel. But instead of cancelling, they try to let you know what your options are. If you insist that they cancel your membership, youre instead directed toward a web form where you must fill out a survey before you are able to cancel your membership.Beer Drop also lets key certs expire, like when I tried to change my credit card, and got an auth error from Strip, which they use to process payments. If this is happening, you know theyre not securing the data youre giving them.I recommend just going to the store and buying your beer in person.

Stopped in on a whim on my way across town, and I’m so glad I did. Selection seems small upon first glance, but they carry crowlers of beer you just can’t get anywhere else but breweries. Super friendly staff, and a friendly pup named Ellie who sold me for good. Go out of your way to visit this place if you like good beer and supporting good people and small businesses.

This is a great local craft beer shop. The dont have the selection of a big box stores. But as an out of Towner I wanted local beers to take home. The guy at the front was awesome and answered all my questions and helped me pick a few beers. I took advantage of the buy 5 get 1 free special. Did I mention the beers are big 32oz cans?. The perfect size to share and still get to know a beer profile. Ill be back next time Im in town.

What an awesome idea, they can crowlers of beer from different breweries around Denver area, and sell it in there shop. I didnt recognize any of the breweries but got recommended a good New England style IPA I think I will like. People are cool and the vibe is nice. Would recommend to any beer lover.

This place carries crowlers (32oz cans) from a select group of local breweries. I bought two crowlers from their Same-Day selection on their website and picked it up a few hours later with my ID. It was fast and easy. Highly recommend visiting their website or stopping in their store.
