Upslope Brewing Company


Always one of the best components of an epic ride: parking lot beers. Nothing like packing a few on ice to have waiting for you back at the car after you just pedaled for the better part of a day (OK, for a couple hours at least). Well, there's a new one to try out, brewed right here in StemCaptain's hometown of Boulder, CO. Upslope Brewing Company is offering some tasty handcrafted brews - in a can! You can pick some up at several liquor stores in Boulder, or stop by their tasting room at 1501 Lee Hill Road in N. Boulder. The guys running it are friendly and aiming to appeal to the bike culture in Boulder. They will be happy to pour you a sample of their Pale Ale or IPA. Look for more varieties in the coming months, and for cans showing up at the parking lots and BBQ's this summer.
