A guide for Colorado beer lovers

Suds and scenery abound in Colorado year round. The fourth edition of “Beer Drinker’s Guide to Colorado” will quench your thirst for up-to-date knowledge about Colorado craft beer and the beautiful places you’ll find it.

It’s a 27-by-39-inch, full-color map, with a detailed topo-physical relief image on the front that “pint-points” the locations of 126 Colorado brewing operations, from bucket brewers to magabrewers, spread all across the state.

Flip the map over and tap into a wealth of information about beer — beer styles, beer tastes, glassware, beer making, and detailed facts for finding, visiting and enjoying Colorado breweries and brewpubs. Find lists of historical and notable saloons, bars for beer geeks and home-brewing shops.

The map includes current Colorado travel information for state and national parks, driving distances, local taxi and bus operators, ski areas and fourteeners. Every map comes packaged with more than $150 worth of coupons for free beer, glassware, free food and other great deals at breweries, brewpubs and retailers.

Published by Motion Pixel Lab of Colorado Springs, the map is available folded for convenient deployment in a glove box, or rolled for a handsome wall display. It comes laminated, too, and is sold in bookstores, liquor stores, restaurants, home-brew suppliers and other local retailers. Or purchase it at beerdrinkersguidetocolorado.com. The folded and rolled maps cost $14.95; the laminated wall map sells for $39.95.
