Beverage Program Score
The editorial take
Meeker's: A Colorado Kitchen & Bar runs a beverage program that covers cocktails, wine, beer, and zero-proof options with unusual thoroughness. Nine signature cocktails, including a Sazerac with 477 Distilling Rye and a Snowbound Sipper with Aviation Gin and Hennessey VSOP, anchor the list. Thirteen wines by the glass span sparkling to red, and twelve drafts highlight Colorado breweries like WeldWerks and Tightknit. A dedicated zero-proof section and daily happy hour round out the offerings.
- What should I order?
- Start with the Snowbound Sipper, a $15 mix of Aviation Gin, Hennessey VSOP, Cherry Heering, Combier, brown sugar, and orange bitters. For a local draft, WeldWerks Juicy Bits is $8 or $10. The zero-proof Pioneer Punch, with ginger beer, fresh lime, and cranberry, is $9.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Anyone seeking a full bar program rather than a token drinks list: cocktail drinkers who care about named spirits, beer fans looking for Colorado drafts, wine drinkers who want by-the-glass variety, and those avoiding alcohol who still want a crafted option.
- When should I go?
- Happy hour runs seven days a week with $9 cocktails, $7 wine by the glass, and $5-$6 drafts. Breakfast beverages are available, suggesting morning service.
- What should I expect to spend?
- Cocktails are $13-$18, wine by the glass $11-$15, draft beers and ciders $8-$11, bottles and cans $5-$6, zero-proof cocktails $9, and non-alcoholic beers $6. Happy hour reduces cocktails to $9, wine to $7, and drafts to $5-$6.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- The combination of a nine-cocktail signature list with specific spirit and modifier details, a thirteen-selection by-the-glass wine list, twelve drafts with multiple breweries, and a dedicated zero-proof section with both cocktails and non-alcoholic beer is unusual for a single restaurant program.
