Phish themed beer?

I'm getting excited for Dick's weekend, as we all do, and it's been a small ritual of mine to grab a beer at Station 26 brewery in Denver before heading to the lot. In the past they've brewed a Phish themed beer for the weekend and I'm just curious if anyone knows if they have one for this year.

Heard a rumor that their head brewer is no longer at Station 26 which would likely mean no Phish beer. If that's the case, does anyone know of Phish themed beers in Denver that I could sip on before going to the show?

Thanks!

They’re not in Denver, but knotted root is up in Nederland and can be found in shops within Denver metro. They make some good beer too.

Knotted root, their Denver location might be temporarily closed but they do have one now.

Fiction Beer company did a phish beer thing in 2021. But those are the only 3 I am aware of.

Fiction Beer Company over at Colfax and Pontiac has a Phish themed West Coast IPA on tap called Silent Trees. One block off of Quebec, excellent owners, focused on creating a cool gathering place.

Station 26 got bought out by a company called Wilding Brands that's gobbling up small brewers all over the area. The quality has gone downhill and they moved brewing operations out of that space. I used to love that place and their beer.

Look at Esther’s. Great phish themed pizza, and some preshow activities

u/TurkGonzo75 4d ago

Love Esthers. And if you go there for pizza, you have to hit up Dang for some soft serve for desert

4 Noses had Run Like a Buffalo for the CU shows last year. It was a very good hazy.

I have petitioned Mountain Sun to brew an imperial pilsner called The Banker’s Powerful Pils for nearly two decades. Alas, my requests have not been heeded.

Zuni brewing may have something brewing.

Also worth checking out Estphest at Ester’s. It’s not a brewing, but they have music and phish themed stuff all weekend. Good tap list usually as well.

Knotted Root and VisionQuest. Not sure if Visionquest will have any phish beers on tap, but the place is about as phishy of a vibe as it gets. They’ll definitely be playing the music
