Big Beaver Brewing

Went here awhile back for my girl’s 21^st. Surprisingly, not a person in my party was ID’d, including the girl that JUST turned 21 that day. Oh well. We order a beer sampler or whatever. I didn’t mind it too much. I felt like a lot of the beers were too bitter or sour, but to each their own. The brats we ordered were tasty, and the spicy mustard that they had was really good!
Sadly, I won’t be back due to the immature nature of the brewery and it’s beers. Literally everything here is named after something profane or some sort of innuendo. I guess that’s cool but I’m not into the whole potty-​mouth aesthetic.

I’ve heard of the brewery before, but I never knew where it was. My wife was talking to someone at a hair appointment and they found out they had similar tastes in beer and the other lady told her about this place. Soooo… off we went.
They have the menu sorted out into two sections to which you can order samplers from each half. There were a couple on each side that we knew we wouldn’t like, and didn’t want (not our style); so we asked the bar tenders if we could make a custom sampler. She said no problem, handed us a laminated menu told us to pick 8. SCCCHHHWWWING! So we picked out what we wanted, including the special beer — MILF (a nitro porter).
We like all of them to one degree or another, I ordered a glass of the MILF, and my wife got the Landing Strip Lager. I admit the MILF turned out OK, I had hoped once it warmed up a bit it would have been better; as I am a big fan of porters, nitro beers, and well MILFS :). However, we both agreed the Landing Strip Lager was the better beer and we ordered a growler of it to take home.
We got a couple of Brats while we were there, and while they are nothing to brag about it was nice to have some decent food to eat along with the beer.
Some people are going to have issues with the tongue-​n-​cheek names of everything here, so maybe those people should go up the freeway a bit and get themselves some fizzy yellow mass produced beer; it’ll be more likely their style.
Overall we really enjoyed the place, and will be stopping in when we can to get more inappropriately named beers! Giggity!

Great place with great beer. The atmosphere is small and cozy, with a large and pun-​filled beer selection.
My friends subscribe to their perk program, and it seems to be one of the best anywhere (they often get texts for a free pint).
Everyday they have specials if you are not on the perk program. Thursday night is game night for geeks, Saturday they offer yoga in the morning for a limited time.
Other breweries could take some tips from this place. I’m from Atlanta, and though the city has many brewers, none offer yoga and a free pint!
Definitely worth checking out, especially if you live nearby.

This place is in an odd location, but they sure know how to make a good beer. They have a tremendous selection of beers made in house and very friendly service. It is also a dog friendly spot and they have a TV for your football viewing pleasure.

I am not a beer snob or even much of a connoisseur but on a recent brewery crawl in northern Colorado this was our fav by a long shot. The beer was great, service was fantastic, and this place was a lot of fun on Friday night.
This is just a little hole in the wall (actually a back door to a warehouse) with hilarious names for beer for those that are not so uptight.
So if you are not an uptight beer snob and you want to have fun instead of criticizing every brew this is the place to go. Chill out and slam me back!

Love it here! Hilarious name. Beer is delicious and definitely above average. Love the punniness of their names. Brats are delicious. Huge thumbs up!

This is a Big Beaver review with a different twist. I have been a sometime customer and have found the management, servers, and clientele outgoing and friendly. The selection is mind-​boggling and, like some reviewers, find the Whiskey D very desirable. But more importantly Big B makes excellent root beer!

I’m giving this brewery five stars simply because the beer was good and the bratwurst was very good. The names of the beers had adult innuendo which was funny, and the amount of locals suggested it was a hip spot.

You’d be pretty hard pressed to drive across, around, about the beautiful Colorado and not hit a brewery within 30 minutes of your drive. This theory proved true after a morning fly fishing trip. Noon hit, and enter Big Beaver Brewing.
The vibe of the joint is on par with other small breweries such as BBB, a little grunge paired with a lot of simplicity.
The beers themselves can stand up to any other brewery. The Whiskey Dick Stout, specifically, goes well with any season, even the summer. Infusing it with Bourbon does it justice.
I’d give it my thumbs up if you are up for a brew in Loveland.

Staff was friendly and their advertising is fun, but the beers I tried where just average nothing to write home about. However still worth a stop if you are in the area.

Positives:
Great atmosphere, plenty of room to sit. The prices are good for a 12 oz jar $ 3.75. The background music is low enough you don’t have to yell over it. The staff were accommodating and friendly.
Not so great:
All the beers taste pretty much the same. I sampled 4 different beers and they were alright but no different complexities I was expecting from a brewery (sorry).
Confusing:
They have about 20 beers, but the menu is labeled 1 – 10 twice. So if I want to order a number 3 they won’t know which number 3 I want. A little more forethought and organization here wouldn’t be a bad idea.
Bummers:
I ordered food for my sweetheart and never received it. When I enquired about it she apologized and made it for him. Although she comped the food for the inconvenience; it made for an unpleasant experience for my sweetheart.
I would go back here for sure. I will just keep closer tabs on the food order if it is busy and only one staff is working.

I really like it here. The trivia night is always a hoot, and its fun to watch the dawning realization of a new customer when they realize that yes, the brewers do know what ‘big beaver’ implies. While the beer there is good (though nothing in particular to write home about), I do like the laid back atmosphere and the focus on beer, and they don’t have a bunch of half assed beer themed menu items.

Children love this brewery. Especially babies. This is a great place to go if you want to escape your kids and be surrounded by everyone else’s. They even put out games for kids. I have come on several occasions and couldn’t get a table for my group because multiple tables were taken by children. As far as the beer goes, just lower your expectations before you go. They have about 16 on tap and I would say only 2 of them are done ‘ok.’

First few times great environment and service, this time not so much. Bartender bashing on coworkers while there is a line of folks trying to spend money. Hope this is just a fluke and not the standard now.

Best brewery in northern Colorado. 18 beers on tap and enough varieties to make anyone happy. My favorite is actually a mixture of whiskey dick stout and the curly IPA (called a curly dick). The atmosphere is unbeatable there and the staff great. Music on Sundays and if you frequent this lots of good deals. This place is attached to a cider house so if your tastes run more to cider you can get that as well

Important note: These guys have a bajillion times the brewing experience that I do and they’re the ones that have a successful local brewery, not me.
Sanitation issues with their beers. They’re pretty inconsistent from batch to batch.
I’ll give them an A for effort, but provocatively named beers ought to be amazing, not wrought with off tastes and smells. Right now they taste like they are named after the processes with which they were brewed.
It was worth it to lose my «big beaver virginity» (a title coined by them, not me) because it was something that had to be done. I don’t regret it, and let’s face it, beer is like sex… I have to tip the person who serves it to me. They «busted a nut» in my mouth, but I think this relationship its only good for a one night stand.

The tasting room is hot and stuffy, the beer unremarkable. The staff were quite friendly but that’s not really enough to get this place an additional star. And maybe I’m just too uptight but the names of the beers are pretty off-​putting.

If your looking for something a bit different, check this place out. In the world of new breweries popping up everywhere BBBC is like your crazy uncle Willey of breweries, they show up and appear to want to be different than the standard local brewery.
During our visit the beer was good, nothing terribly outstanding that I recall. If you have a 10^th grade sense of humor (i do) you will crack up at the names of the beers and the overpriced shirts for sale… All in all, check this place out. The place is very simple and laidedback and not like many other upscale breweries in the area.

Do not waste your time with this brewery unless you are just going to laugh at the beer names and buy a t-​shirt. The beer is horrible. There are much better options in the area to waste your time and money here.

Really an awesome little brewery located by the K-​Mart in town. There are not many signs to indicate where it is and since it is in the back of a building it would be very easy to miss. So have that GPS handy!
My favorite beers at Big Beaver thus far is definitely their IPA and their chile beer. They both tasted amazing! Of course ALL of their beer is awesome and the atmosphere is nice and intimate so you can pull up and have a conversation with the barkeep.
Once again an awesome place!
