February can be a tough month. It’s not quite winter, it’s not really spring — and most people have lost their ambition when it comes to the New Year’s resolutions they were so vigorously attacking in January. February might get forgotten, but don’t worry — the Denver breweries have your back with a variety of unique events to get you through the month.
