DENVER (KDVR) — Coloradans love beer, and the Mile High City is one of the top cities in the U.S. when it comes to craft beer.
One benefit of cooler weather on the way is the beer varieties it brings to Colorado’s many breweries, like Oktoberfest lagers, pumpkin spice beers and apple pie sour ales.
