The beverage program, led by Bryan Dayton, featured craft beer, wine, cocktails, and Boxcar Roasters nitro coffee.
Guests can also enjoy house-made kombucha, ginger beer, and root beer. Thanks to its thoughtful menu and drinks, Brider became a Platte Street staple for Denver diners over the past decade.
