Taproom

FAQs

(Let’s Clear Some Things Up)

1. Are you really a 21+ only brewery?

Yes. Fully. Entirely. No exceptions.
As a 21+ adults-only brewery in Arvada, we’ve created an environment in the taproom to be an adult escape—good beer, good conversation, and zero Paw Patrol in the background.

2. But what if my kid is super well-behaved?

We believe you. Truly.
Still, NO. This isn’t about your kid—it’s about maintaining a consistent adults-only taproom experience for everyone else.

3. Are dogs allowed at your brewery?

Absolutely. We find that dogs are often > people.
We’re a very dog-friendly brewery in Arvada (just ask both our 2-legged and 4-legged members of our PUP CLUB), and well-behaved, leashed pups are always welcome inside the taproom and on the patio.

4. Do you serve food?

We don’t have a kitchen, but we regularly host local Arvada and Metro Area food trucks.
You’re also welcome to bring your own food—because we encourage you to eat while enjoying a pint or two. And we’re not monsters.

5. Do you have non-alcoholic options?

Yes. We offer non-alcoholic beer, soda, mocktails, and several other NA options.
You can hang out at our taproom without drinking alcohol—we’re cool like that.

6. Where is Odyssey Beerwerks located?

We’re an Arvada, Colorado brewery tucked into the Gold Strike District industrial area—think “hidden gem,” not “strip mall.”
If you found us without GPS, we’re impressed. Parking is available in our large lot.

7. Do you distribute your beer in Colorado?

Yes! You can find our Colorado craft beer at select bars, restaurants, and liquor stores across the state, distributed by our partners at Colorado Craft Distributors (Metro Area, surrounding and along the Front Range) and Hopscotch Solutions (Summit County and I-70 Corridor).
Or you can just come straight to the source—it tastes better here anyway.

8. What kind of beer do you make?

Short answer: a lot.
Long answer: We brew a wide range of craft beer styles, from crisp lagers and pale ales to hazy IPAs and experimental small-batch releases that probably shouldn’t work—but do.

9. What’s your most popular beer?

That would probably be Ghost Drifter Pale Ale, our flagship Colorado pale ale and reigning champion.
It’s the one people say they’re “just stopping in for,” and then somehow stay for three.

10. Do you have TVs in the taproom?

Yes – kind of. We have ONE tv that is usually only on when a Colorado team is on a local broadcast. Sorry, no satellite or pay-to-view options. Even when on, the volume usually isn’t. Go Broncos, Avs, Nuggets, and Rockies (there’s always hope they turn into a professional team)!
Our Arvada taproom is built for conversation, not yelling at referees.

11. Can I host a private event at your brewery?

Yes! We offer options for small private events and group gatherings at our Arvada brewery.
Just reach out—we’ll help you throw something better than your last office party.

12. Do you have a Mug Club?

We do—and it’s a bit of a cult (the fun kind). And pretty small (by design)
Our brewery Mug Club includes limited spots, exclusive perks, and bragging rights. Renewals begin in October, with any new spots open on Black Friday every year. 

13. Why adults-only? Seriously.

Because it creates a different experience—more relaxed, more social, more… adult.
We’re a 21+ brewery focused on adult community and connection. It’s not anti-kid. It’s pro-adult. There’s a difference.

14. Do you allow outside alcohol?

No. Kind of like kids under 21 - not even a little.
We’re a working craft brewery and taproom, and we work pretty hard to make the beer here—it seems fair you drink it while you’re here.

15. Can I walk or ride my bicycle to Odyssey?

Of course! We are located just off the Ralston Creek Trail at the 56th Ave Bridge. We have a bike rack and encourage customers to ride in!

16. What’s with the name “Odyssey”?

Because craft beer, and the overall human experience, should be an adventure, not a checklist.
Also, “Chris’s Beer Place” didn’t test well—which, frankly, feels like a missed opportunity
