Rock Cut Brewing Company

Best Brewery in Estes park. Beer is great, service is great! Great stop after a perfect hike. Definitely recommending stopping at this Estes Park Brewery :)))

The service here is awesome. They are super friendly and even brought out a bowl of water for our dog. The patio is great with ample shade and space. The beer is awesome too! Definitely worth checking out (super convenient location from town and RMNP), especially if you have a dog with you.

Stopped by here twice during our stay in Estes Park. Second time was to wash out the taste of a nearby brewery that we regretted visiting. You won’t regret this one. Friendly staff and great beer selection… inviting atmosphere and well kept facility. Had their IPA and Red Ale — recommend both.

Nice place, a couple of blocks or so away from the main streets of downtown Estes Park. Very nice bartender staff, pleasant & friendly. Good beer. You can bring your own food. We liked it.

Rock Cut has very knowledgable and helpful staff who will help you pick the right beer. They are friendly and eager to serve you. Above all, they have EXCELLENT beers! The owners have gone to great lengths to make sure that the cornerstone to their business– beer– in top notch. Although they do not serve food, they are fine with you bringing in outside food. Kids are welcome too and you can grab a game for all to play too! Love this place!!! Highly recommended!

Definitely the best local beer in Estes. We enjoyed tasting their various brews and find them to be well planned and well executed. Their red IPA was especially fantastic. Nice selection of brews to suit many preferences. Friendly people as well. Definitely the best growler we took home from the region.

The beer here is good, very good even, not amazing. The place was also clean but that wasn’t going to make up for the snobby bartender who was also aggressive towards all the guests.

Local Feel in Tourist Town
The beer is really good, and the bar tender was really welcoming and personable. Great place! My favorite thing about it was that it feels like a local brewery. Often, tourist towns get flooded with places cashing in on a trend. This is really a local gem.

Above and beyond, great service and staff! The selection is top notch and the staff are beyond helpful. Came into town and cut it close to closing time but they made it so worth it! Best brewery in Estes Park!

Terrible customer service.
I went here after a long day if snowshoeing with my girlfriend. We were pretty tired so we just did a few samplers and decided to come back another day.
Their internet wasn’t working, so they couldn’t use their iPad card reader system. I didn’t have enough cash, and the bartender told me that since their payment system wasn’t working that I couldn’t leave without leaving my card with them until they finally got their wifi back up. Reluctantly I went all around town trying to get to an atm, which also weren’t working in town.
Eventually I went back to try to free my credit card from the bartender who had already decided to copy all of card info down on a coaster without my permission and with no promise to shred it. Throughout all of this the owner was standing by, not offering any apology to customers and continuing to take customers without telling them about the system being down.
Needless to say, I didn’t feel great about having my credit card info floating around on a coaster. So, Adam (bartender), way to lose customers over not wanting to comp a $ 6 bill due to an internal issue.
Do yourself a favor and go talk to Nick at Lumpy Ridge Brewing, a couple miles away. Try the brown sour there and you’ll find better beer and far improved customer service.

Service was great! The Kind coffee IPA was good, and the brunette was quite delicious. Others were decent just not our favorites.

Great brews. I’m not always a dark beer lover but the English Porter was so amazing we had to get some to go in a growler.

Unilocal told me this brewery was a mere .3 miles from the cabin we stayed at, so how could I not visit?!
New, clean, modern though minimalist design. Not a large space, though they make do quite well. They have a flat screen up and a couple shelves stacked with board games to entertain guests. No food served though you can order take out.
The guys running the show (I assumed the owners/​brewers) were welcoming and enjoyed talking about their beer, specifically the English Smoked Porter.
They now have nine beers being served and with the 4 oz. taster option, you can sample and enjoy ;) I had the ESB, Pale Ale (mosaic hops), IPA and Smoked Porter. All very balanced and well done. My buddy tried the Black IPA and a Stout. Very nice offerings all the way around. If I remember correctly the alc. % ranged from mid 5 to 7.6%.
These guys should be around for the long haul. Pay ‘em a visit.

Tried 7 beers last night between 4 of us and all of them were quite tasty. The mosaic pale ale and Russian imperial stout were my favorites.
«Good beer after snowshoeing.» — my mom.

Only open 2 months but solid place. Will be back when we roll through. Should def check it out and locals aren’t bad either.

Awesome place. Modern, clean, new brewery feel. Owner is super nice, and friendly and takes a lot of pride in his brews.
Could use a couple more brews, and he isn’t much of a hops fan but I am, their black IPA is good, but they could use a little more hops in their line up!

We were in town and were looking for a cold beer after hiking all day. We stumbled upon this nice little craft brewery. Service was good and the beers were satisfying. When we return to Estes we will be back

My wife to be and I spent our first afternoon in this brewery this evening. We were pleasantly surprised to find a little honey hole like this in Estes Park, where the brew scene has been lacking.
Let me start by saying the gentleman behind the bar, one of the owners, was as pleasant and enjoyable to visit with as if we had brought a third good friend. We had a flight of everything on tap, and were not disappointed with any flavors or styles. For us, the Altbier and ESB certainly stood out compared to the average. But all beers on tap were drinkable and then some.
There was a nice mix of locals, and tourist in the joint. Even on a tourist filled festival weekend. We are getting married in Estes Park in two weeks, and we will certainly lean all of our guest in their direction. Stop by here if you get the chance, you will not be disappointed.
Cheers!

Wow… great beer, great atmosphere, great staff, everything! We loved every beer we tried, with my boyfriend’s favorite being the IPA, and mine the Porter. We were only in town one night, and had intended to try a couple breweries, but we never left this one =) We even went back the next day for one more beer before heading out of town. Unfortunately we were flying and had no way to get the beer back to Dallas, or we would have.
We sat and talked with Tracy (one of the owners/​brewmasters) one night, and Matt (the other owner/​brewmaster) the next day. These guys are passionate about beer and super friendly. When we get back to Estes Park, we’ll definitely spend some time here again.
Thanks guys for a great time, and amazing beer! =)

Great beers! The IPA has just enough linger and bitterness but not in excess. The porter is malty and lighter, very good for a warm fall day. The wheat beer is balanced citrusy and fresh. Not very sweet just perfect! Staff is very friendly and helpful, and love talking beer.
