Very Nice Brewing Company

Very Nice Brewing sits upstairs on Highway 119 in Nederland, a small mountain-town brewery run in the spirit of a longtime home brewer who finally opened the doors. The taproom holds about 70 people and keeps a pub-like, family-friendly feel that suits stripped-down acoustic music. Live shows land on Friday and Saturday nights, with an open mic on the first Thursday of each month. The genre lean is bluegrass, Americana, blues, folk, country, and singer-songwriter, mostly in solo or duo formats that match the intimate room. For artists, it is a warm, low-key stage in a scenic mountain setting. For guests, it is an easygoing spot to hear something quiet over a well-made beer. A second Very Nice location operates in Black Hawk.
