USA, CO: Two new craft breweries on their way to Northern Colorado

New craft beer is on its way to Northern Colorado, including Severance's first brewery, The Coloradoan reported on May 3.

Tilted Barrel Brewpub opens Friday, May 4 in Loveland, and G5 Brewpub will debut its own beer Tuesday, May 8 in Severance. Both breweries also operate full-service restaurants.

Previous owners ran a Tilted Barrel restaurant at the 110 E. 29th St. Loveland location, but it closed just five months after opening.

It was deemed the perfect space by married couples R.W. and Megan Collett, and Tim and Sonja DeBord, who had planned to open a brewery called 40th Parallel Brewery — even releasing a beer under the name at Fort Collins’ Rally King Brewing. After purchasing the space, they decided to retain the Tilted Barrel name.

“We are excited to see this finally happen,” Tim DeBord said. “It has been a long time coming.”

Tilted Barrel is Loveland’s ninth craft brewery and will debut with a golden ale, a vanilla porter and a hazy IPA. The brewpub also has a full bar and nine guest taps featuring all local brews.

The first Tilted Barrel recipes were contract-brewed at Rally King because the brewpub was assembling its own system.

“We have a lot more of our own beers in the works,” Tim DeBord said. “We have about 13 recipes that we have settled on to test out.”

Many of the house beers are used as ingredients at the Tilted Barrel restaurant. The menu includes traditional pub fare like burgers, wings, salads, sandwiches and pizzas.

“We want it to be a place with great food and great beer,” Tim DeBord said. “A place where people can come hang out.”

G5 Brewpub opened at 1018 Mahogany Way in Severance in September 2016 out of the old Sonny’s Country Cafe. The operation had always planned to make its own beer and will finally tap the first, a red ale, on Tuesday.

G5 is Severance’s first craft brewery.

“People in the community are incredible and seem as excited as we are,” said G5 owner Jeremy Gourd. “Severance is exploding just like the rest (of Northern Colorado)."

Gourd had been passing out free samples of his homebrews to G5 regulars for feedback. He’s now contract brewing out of Greeley’s Green Earth Brewing Co., with plans to eventually brew on site at G5.

Gourd used the harvest from his small Windsor hop farm in his debut red ale.

G5 also has its second beer, a honey basil ale, currently fermenting. It is expected to tap the beer in early June.

The G5 restaurant menu includes barbecue and burgers. The operation is named after Gourd’s family, which includes his wife and three kids.
