Beverage Program Score
The editorial take
Tap Fourteen's rooftop pours 70 Colorado craft beers, the clear draw, with a draft list spanning light to Belgian styles. Nine signature cocktails hold their own, from the Tin Cup Old Fashioned to the Mile High Spritz, while non-alcoholic options extend to Ritual-based mocktails and NA beers. Canned Canterris wine covers the basics. Happy hour and Thursday pint night sweeten the deal.
- What should I order?
- Start with the WeldWerks Juicy Bits IPA or Great Divide Yeti Imperial Stout from the 70 taps. For a cocktail, the Tin Cup Old Fashioned delivers a classic build. Non-drinkers can try the NA Old Fashioned with Ritual whiskey.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Beer enthusiasts will find the deep Colorado draft list appealing. Cocktail fans get a modest but varied list, and those abstaining have thoughtful NA options. Groups wanting rooftop views and a casual scene will fit right in.
- When should I go?
- Thursday is $5 pint night for all beers, a good value for beer lovers.
- What should I expect to spend?
- Cocktails range $11-$15; draft beers $5.50-$9.50; canned wine $13; NA cocktails $6-$10; NA beers $7-$8. Happy hour drops wells to $6 and select beers to $4-$5.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- A rooftop beer garden with 70 Colorado craft beers on tap, half a block from Coors Field. The beer list is organized by style, including non-alcoholic options. Cocktails lean on local spirits like Tin Cup and Felenē.

How it sits with the food
With a beer-centric menu, hearty fare like burgers or pretzels would complement the malty stouts and hoppy IPAs. The Tin Cup Old Fashioned suits richer dishes, while the Spritz pairs with lighter bites.
