A trip to Denver in November allowed me to further explore the city, sports, and beer scene. The trip coincided with two games at the Ball Arena: the Colorado Avalanche against the Buffalo Sabres and the Denver Nuggets against the Brooklyn Nets. Both games resulted in home triumphs and provided enjoyable evenings of entertainment. During the day, there was opportunity to explore some of Denver’s districts and visit Boulder. The cold weather and chill made it necessary to walk rapidly while exploring. Previous visits did not provide enough time to explore beyond the downtown centre and Golden. While some of the neighbourhoods featured noteworthy art, there was limited culture, with most of Denver’s appeal originating from the natural beauty found outside the city. Like prior visits, there was the opportunity to visit the Coors brewery and some of the many of craft brewers which can be found in the Denver area.
