Great Divide Opens New Taproom and Restaurant in RiNo

Great Divide Brewery & Roadhouse opened its newest taproom and restaurant in Denver’s River North Arts District on December 22, 2025. The RiNo outpost sits about a mile from the brewery’s original Denver location, and takes over the space that previously housed Stem Ciders. The move expands Great Divide’s footprint into one of the city’s most active neighborhoods, and brings its long running beer portfolio closer to a steady stream of new residents and visitors.

The new taproom offers 12 beers on tap, plus one Stem Ciders cider as a nod to the location’s past. Pouring selections include Bateman Bier, a 2024 Great American Beer Festival gold medal winner, along with staples such as Yeti Imperial Stout and Hercules Double IPA. Visitors can expect rotating seasonal beers and thoughtful non alcoholic options, with cans, growlers and merchandise available for those who want to take beer home.

The restaurant pairs Great Divide’s beers with an elevated, flavor forward menu designed for sharing and casual dining. The space aims to serve both neighborhood patrons and beer fans who travel for recognized names, creating a convivial spot for weekday lunches and weekend mornings when the taproom opens at 9 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday.

For more than 30 years Great Divide has been a defining presence in Colorado’s craft beer scene, collecting numerous medals at national competitions. The RiNo location underscores the brewery’s ongoing evolution, offering a combination of legacy beers and fresh experiences that meet current tastes and neighborhood demand.

Practical information is straightforward. Great Divide RiNo is open Monday through Friday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. Check greatdividebreweryandroadhouse.com for menus, event listings and more details about the new taproom.
