Dry Dock Brings the Flavor of Pride to Aurora
Craft brews are a dime a dozen in Colorado, but there are a select few who stand out from the saturated market and have truly become Rocky Mountain staples. With two locations chosen specifically to be housed in Aurora, Dry Dock Brewing Co. is proud to stem from the diverse, unique, and robust community. Beginning as The Brew Hut in 2005, Colorado’s first home-brewery supply store, the experimental taproom has grown into the award-winning microbrewery we all know and love.
While the brewery, like all businesses, has gone through a lot of changes during COVID, the support of the loyal customer base, in Aurora and beyond, has kept the local hotspot hopping. This is why Dry Dock feels it is important to support organizations like OUT FRONT and events like Aurora Pride, to keep the thriving community flourishing during these difficult times.
“We’re happy to be part of such a proud, diverse, and eclectic community that is Aurora,” says Cara Fasciana, Dry Dock’s communication and media coordinator. “Dry Dock is committed to supporting and welcoming everybody, whether someone is a military veteran, an inspiring artist, someone of the LGBT community, or even an alien from outer space—we just hope that they see Dry Dock as a place of inclusion.”
With the North and South Dock locations reopened, as well as the original Brew Hut spot, Dry Dock wants everyone to feel welcome as they walk in the doors. With the company approaching it’s 15-year anniversary in October, they are excited to work with the community in hosting what they hope will be a big celebration. With all the COVID protocols in place, the brewery is finalizing some fresh, brand-new releases and even, dare they say, throwing a socially distanced birthday party.
Whether a crisp, apricot blonde is your style or you prefer to lean into the hazy IPA realm, Dry Dock has 16 flavor profiles on tap.
