If I see someone sleeping at the bar, my first thought is "free drink for me!" As long as they don't exhibit any open sores on their lips, that is.

No one better looking than me allowed in. Goddamn Brad Clooneys with their carefully tousled locks, roman noses, full lips, cut physiques and teasingly tight designer jea...I mean no video games. Video games.

Rule: No freaking kids in bars. One of the downsides of Little LoDo becoming a fashionable residential neighborhood is that it's now overrun with web developers pushing their spawn around in bombproof, Gary Fisher strollers. The last time I was at M…

OK, it was actually a pretty cool place, but what's with the list of rules on the first page of Bitter Bar's cocktail menu? Please, by all means, contemplate your well-crafted cocktail in hushed reverence, then get the fuck out (quietly).   Here's t…

Funny stuff. I actually showed up for this little shindig, but somehow got the time wrong and ended up being 5 hours early. I took solace in a Manhattan and some spoonbread.

Argonaut has a variety of bottled Boulevard beers (big bottles). Not sure if the Double Wide is one of them though.

10.27.09»HEAVY DRINKING ON THE LIGHT RAIL

I’ve been taking the Light Rail home from work and staring out the windows wondering about the lives happening in every building I pass. There’s a strange, derelict shell of an old gas station somehow left standing at an abandoned and unused intersection under the Colfax overpass. There’s a converted warehouse that I’m pretty sure doubles as a residence behind Domo Japanese restaurant. And of course there’s the bars and restaurants – some visible from the platform like the Buckhorn Exchange,Continue

8.18.09»42nd AND SOBO

This Six Shooter marks my 42nd birthday, the third annual birthday bar crawl that Shanister and I have done together, and the second to appear on Denver Six Shooter (last year’s was the inaugural Six Shooter penned by Colonel Hector Bravado). We were joined by Six Shooter veteransContinue

6.30.09»DTC: WALTZ OF THE UNEMPLOYED

Fellow Six Shooter Slanted & Enchanted and I recently got laid off from the same corporate entity. S&E (as he will be henceforth known) had a great idea for wallowing in misery: a happy-hour bar crawl through the bars where we so recently vented about things like "scope creep" and "analysis paralysis," mere blocks from the bloody site of our inglorious axing. It would be either fun or humiliating (in a fun sort of way) to run into ex-colleagues and discuss the joys of joblessness – toContinue

4.14.09»THE SPIRITS OF COLORADO

Stranahan’s Colorado Whiskey captures the essence of Denver with its slightly rough edges and balance of downtown swagger and Old West grit. The label — at once old-timey and postmodern — resembles a saloon "wanted" poster, but also lists the song playing when the distiller bottled the whiskey. Finding Stranahan’s at the bars within a stone’s throw of the distillery (at 24th and Blake) proved more difficult than expected. In a neighborhood suited to walking and drinking, it seems many of theContinue

Glad you made it. Look forward to having your voice in the din.

Mark, you've got style. You've gotta do one of these things. As a matter of fact, I think you may have inadvertently called your theme: "In Search of Drinking's Soul in Denver."
If you save your receipts, I even reimburse you for one drink per stop.
Game?
Hit me up if you like and I'll let you know how the submission process works.

Ha. Dig the new moniker. Just listened to Alexander Scourby's reading of Gatsby a few weeks ago. Did you ever return to the subject of your very own outing? Would love to hear your thoughts; the April schedule is pretty much wide open.

Dag. My condolences on the loss of measurable income; if it's any help, I do reimburse my writers for one drink per stop if they save their receipts. So outside of the time factor, at least it shouldn't cost you anything to get it done.
I love idea #2, especially seeing as how nobody's really hit that neighborhood yet.

My friend, athough I have just joined this site and I offer kudos to you for doing your research about our “silent brother” the Llama.

Regards,

Hey Ewing,

The Colonel told me about the beer stunt you guys are doing and I was wondering if I could tag along.

Let me know if that'd be all right.
Thanks,
Jenn

Join the fun! We'll be meeting at Ernie's at 1pm Saturday. There will be more people than just the 2 3-person teams so feel to bring friends.
