What’s New at Mile High Spirits in Denver
The local distillery recently opened a new tasting room and launched a unique new drink: Moscow mule in a can.
When Mile High Spirits’ tasting room opened in Denver in 2012, the owners’ goal was to welcome locals and visitors alike to try his small batch, hand crafted spirits in a welcoming atmosphere accessible to all. With Denver’s craft distilling industry booming, this fall was quite a busy time for the local business, which just opened up a brand new tasting room and launched an exciting new product that’s sure to be a crowd favorite.
The new tasting room, located just seven blocks away from the original location, is over 4,000 square feet large, a whopping 2,200 square feet larger than before. It’s right in the heart of downtown Denver, only a short walk from Coors Field and many other area attractions.
The tasting room’s atmosphere is industrial-chic with a large bar, state-of-the-art sound system and huge patio where you’ll often find some of the city’s most delicious food trucks. There’s also a juke box, a pool table, TVs and plenty of options for lounging. Weather permitting, picnic tables and yard games will keep guests entertained day and night in the warmer months. Essentially, Mile High Spirits took the same vibe they were offering before in their original location and expanded on it a short distance away.
While the fun atmosphere keeps everyone happy, they’re really all there for one thing: the Moscow Mules. Mile High Spirits is known for making Denver’s best version of the classic cocktail, and as of this fall you can now take its top offering home with you. That’s right, Mile High Spirits has become the first company in the United States (and maybe the world?) to launch a Moscow Mule in a can. Called Punching Mule, the delicious ready-to-drink beverage is already available all over Colorado, and plans are in the works to bring it to the rest of the country over the next five years.
Aside from the Moscow Mule, Mile High Spirits serves up plenty of other fresh and unique cocktails in its tasting room. Mile High Spirits currently produces Fireside Whisky, Elevate Vodka, Denver Dry Gin and Pegleg Rum, and the distillery is known for its top quality ingredients like organic non-GMO corn and pure Rocky Mountain water.
