On Friday, Denver Off the Wagon will be releasing their newest brew, Dubbel Entendre, which they brewed with Denver Beer Co.

Dubbel Entendre is a rich amber copper color with dark fruits in the aroma and a balanced malty body.  German Northern Brewer hops balance out the sweetness of the “three tons” of Belgian Candy sugar and a set the brew to bubble with an Abby Yeast.

Saturday, February 23rd begins with the Five Points Pub Crawl from 3pm-7pm.  What better way to start a Saturday? Meet at Mile High Spirits to drink your way to nightfall.

The crawl is centered around Denver Off the Wagon’s favorite Five Points watering holes: Mile High Spirits, Our Mutual Friend, The Matchbox, River North Brewing, Blake Street Tavern, Breckenridge Brewery, Whiskey Bar, and end at Star Bar. Dubbel Entendre will be available on tap at most of these locations, as well as some drink specials like $4 cocktails at Mile High Spirits and happy hour pricing at The Matchbox. Party at Star Bar form 7pm until close to end on a celestial note.

Happy Birthday to them, and Happy party week to all of you! More information and tickets available at https://www.facebook.com/events/209143305890632/  You getting thirsty?
