Colorado Beer Tapestries
Description: Denver's Colorado Mine Company was one of those places that wasn’t what it seemed. It was a dive bar of sorts, but slightly classier and wrapped in a unique style of western kitsch with a menu to match. It was the kind of place your mother had warned you about, but that only made it that much more fun to hang out there. The restaurant lives on in America's collective consciousness as the creator of the "Fool's Gold" sandwich, one of Elvis Presley's all-time favorites, so much so that he would fly his private jet from Graceland to Denver just to get his fix.
Description: Beer advertising and promotional materials were decidedly less reserved in years gone by. No 'drink responsibly' or 'enjoy in moderation' messages... it was just 'let's get hammered' and everyone was ok with that. This 1980 era gem takes you back to the good old days when getting totally lit was the name of the game and these guys are showing you how it's done. Stay frosty!
