Rock Cut Brewing Company
Rock Cut Brewing Company was founded in 2015 by Tracy Goodemote and Matt Heiser, college friends who spent the last 11 years brewing together. From a homebrewing set-up in Tracy’s garage to a state-of-the-art seven barrel system with a large viewing window from the taproom, Matt & Tracy’s passion evolved into one of Northern Colorado’s favorite craft breweries. Owned by Matt and employees-turned-owners Kirby & Jordan Hazelton, Rock Cut focuses on high quality ingredients, authentic techniques and recipes, and innovative styles with twelve taps that pour beers to fit all palates.
Stanley Hotel
A stay of one night was enough to inspire Stephen King’s third major work and first hardcover bestseller The Shining, which remains a landmark masterpiece in a long and well-known list of novels. The hotel stands today as a beautifully restored testament to its glory days, when it served as a holiday retreat for wealthy urbanites. A range of tours highlights the history of this magnificent historical structure while a tempting menu of amenities, culinary experiences and lavish spa treatments provides all the comfort and glamour required by even the most discerning modern visitors.
