Out of town and visiting. I've had a weird day. I almost threw hands with a homeless man over NOTHING. I think he was crazy. Also got hit by a car in Boulder while I was riding a bike. Guy was super nice but this was after he hit me. Haha All this to say that Our bartender, CJ,Greeted us and had the presence of a professional. My girlfriend is a bartender, I know the troubles that come with the territory.. so I have respect for her attitude! Props. Keep her around your business read more

Super fun metal-themed bar with a great selection of beers and cocktails. They also had a great variety of vegan options including chili and pizzas! Absolutely delicious. The service was quick and friendly. read more

For a biker bar this place is a five. For a dinner spot, 2. I would not hunt BSB out but we were in the neighborhood, hungry and it was pouring rain. Heavy metal blares all night and the characters inhabiting the place are on the rougher side. Service was swift and friendly although they messed up the order bigtime (wrong items on the pizza that my friend was allergic to). I had finished my sandwich long before we ever saw her order. Instead of comping her pizza they only offered to comp A beer. We said we were done drinking and asked if it could be a dessert instead. They said no. Wrong answer. read more

Had the Gose and the pizza! Wow the pizza was great! Very thin crust and great flavor! They also have cocktails!

Pizza here was killer. We waited awhile for food but it was also a Friday night. You order from the bar for beers. Good beer selection. Cool spot to checkout. read more

Ughh Black Sky... Our love-hate relationship continues like a bad high school romance. I like your beer. I don't like your disgruntled staff. I love your beer. I detest your greasy food. I really love your beer. I hate that you don't allow dogs on your patio (it's a PATIO...and it's DENVER...and it's a BREWERY...) And just like a true dysfunctional relationship, I will return to you for liquid love but continue to feel empty inside. Sigh... read more

Yelpers recommended this place and I have to agree. The pizza, salad, and beer were on point. As other people yelped, it is a heavy metal bar. Some of the music I liked some I didn't, but none was overly loud. The staff was great. I would like to come back. read more

I would like to start by saying the bartender, CJ was delightful, engaging and really cares about pouring you a beer you would enjoy. Her male coworker on the other hand, total opposite and then some. He refused to serve me a flight (after ordering food) because it was "too busy" on a Wednesday at 7:30pm. He then goes on a cigarette break, not getting me anything and I waited, empty handed. When he got back, he asked the woman next to me for her ID again. Constantly calling her random pet names like "Sweetie". It was odd to watch her get re-ID'd when she clearly finished a previous beer. All the creepy vibes, since she was alone. He was a total Buzzkill for the evening with a matching personality. Because of this we have no desire of returning or recommending Black Sky Brewery to anyone. read more

We had a sampler of several beers. Every one was week and insipid, except for a very pronounced and obnoxious citrus flavor. The music is definitely head banging metal, and it was loud. Some people can actually listen to it without getting a headache, but all we wanted to do was leave. read more

This pizza is awesome and if you are a metal head even better! Seriously I have been to new york and chicago and the pizza is freaking good here the drinks are tasty too! read more

This was our second visit and I have to say, even better than the first time! The beers were awesome, pretzel was tasty for a snack split between two people, and our server was super sweet. It is a fun place, even if metal music isn't quite your jam. It's warm and welcoming for everyone! Just try it! read more

What a great find! I just lucked into it while lost on Santa Fe and thirsty. Cut to the chase - best pizza by far in Denver and great overall. First cheese only pizza I've ever Loved, such great tasty cheese and these guys dough is FANtastic. The meat combo was dynamite. Delicious meats and seasoning. Great beers too, and a fun friendly place though at first look it might surprise you. (Oh and very clean, too). Next time I'm getting several. read more

We were wondering around the area and decided to get a drink. We sat at the bar and the bartender was friendly. She made excellent drinks and they were reasonably priced. We decided to get a snack and ordered the meatball bites. She told us to add risotto which we did and I was glad we did. It took a little while to come out, but was very hot and fresh. We enjoyed the snack and the drinks. It was a neat brewery especially for the heavy metal fan. Glad we stopped in to try to. read more

You might wait a while for service but it was an interesting atmosphere, good music. VERY DELICIOUS PIZZA so it was worth the wait. Like many places, they seem to be short staffed but that didn't effect the quality of the food or drink so if you have some time relax and sip a while the pizza is worth the wait! read more

Definitely a one of a kind gem - we absolutely loved it! Great beer selection, great service and the food is outstanding - especially the pizza! I highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for great atmosphere and a solid sense of community. Will definitely be back! read more

They have a pretty extensive list of beers- between the table we all got something different and not one person didn't like theirs. I got the banana bread and it was DELICIOUS the other one was the watermelon and that was so refreshing!!! The food menu was intense- it almost seemed basic but holy molly they give you BIG portions. the pizza slice is like 3 slices in 1, the breadsticks were massive, we also got jalapeno poppers, a calzone and a few other stuff and omg so good! The only reason I'm giving 4 instead of 5 cause of slow slow slow service. They definitely needed another waitress or two. read more

The atmosphere here is brutal cannibal corpse brutal, very industrial. It appears to have been hastily converted and then not completed. The ceiling is twin T and tall- if they were painted black it would really match the aesthetic I think they're going for; brutal but welcoming. The ductwork is a real deal breaker: missing diffusors, worn out return grilles, really polished and harsh looking. Decent beer though. read more

Fun little spot in the Baker neighborhood. Great for when you want to eat out but don't want to go down to South Broadway. They only play metal, so if that's not your vibe you should probably avoid. They've also got competitive Pac-Man, pinball and a couple other games which is fun and nostalgic. The beer is good, the hibiscus and rose beer, Petal to the Metal, is awesome. They've got good, greasy food, a good lunch special and a solid happy hour ($3 wells!), and the bartenders are just cool people. They've got a back patio which is going to be great to hang at during the summer. Unfortunately not dog friendly. read more

I am on a mission to go to every brewery in Denver area and this was my next stop. I tried 4 beers, uncommon flavours, for me they were good but I wouldn't go back for the beer, but I would definitely go back for the pizza, omg the black sky pizza is the best I've had in a long time. Be prepared to listen to heavy metal, hard rock and all that kind of music which I don't know anything about, actually the whole place has this rock atmosphere. The people working here are very attentive and friendly so even if they aren't that fast, it's still okay. read more

Still getting started, but yummo these beers are tasty! They just opened, but are rocking it so far! It is a great large space and they serve food and booze too!! They have a bloody mary bar in the mornings as far as I can tell. We checked it out last Saturday afternoon and it was delightful! They had three of their own brews available and a plethora of other local brews on tap (Dry Dock, Elk Mountain, Renegade). As soon as they crank up their production, you better believe I am getting a growler or two! The samples were $2 each and all three were super delish! They had the Demon Seed IPA, which was good but I am not a huge hopper, an American Ale called Black Light that was very popular and my personal favorite Petal to the Metal! It had rose hips and hibiscus and was a-freaking-mazing! I feel I might be finding myself in that area of town more often! Rock on! read more

From the second we walked in you could cut the tension with a knife, staff was apathetic at best and the regulars were the most uninviting bunch I've ever encountered in a "metal bar." We get it you're too cool. There are much better bars/breweries in Denver, the beer is less than average and the pizza is bland. Also the metal was very mainstream and repetitive, if you're going to be snobbish at least play better metal music! The wall art was nice though, I'll give them that. read more

Their beer is unremarkable (if I were unkind, I would say "yucky"), but I love that they are there for the Hessian Heavy Metal set. It seems like a good gathering place for that lot. When we visited there was a patron who had been Waaaaaaay over served, and to make matters more ridiculous, he kept dropping a liquor store plastic pint of whiskey out of his pants pocket onto the floor. He needed to be cut off, for his own safety, but no one seemed concerned. I'm all for alternative lifestyles but there is a little thing called the law, and breaking it can result in losing your license and a big fat fine. read more

This place is awesome! I came here with some friends on a Saturday night and I will definitely be back. The heavy metal band plays towards the back and there is seating in the front, or you could hang at the bar or stand by the music. Lots of options. SO many beers to choose from! I got the Persephone Pomegranate Wheat and I really liked it. I didn't get a chance to try and of the food, but it looked and smelled pretty tasty. They also have at least one guest cider on tap for those that do not drink beer - and wine and liquor as well! The bartender was super attentive, even through a busy crowd, and was really polite and friendly. Pretty much every person at this place was really polite and friendly. All around good vibes! If you're not into the music, it might not be the place for you on a weekend night. Not the kind of place to sit and have a deep conversation.. it's a bit hard to hear over the loud music. But I still suggest you go even if that might scare you off a little!! read more

Hell yes. This place kicks ass. We are so happy to have found this place. Great beer and drinks, pizza, and the servers are top notch. It's always a good time. read more

We found this restaurant/bar from Yelp when we were in the area on an errand. We decided to sit at the bar and order beers and pizza. The bartender was an awesome girl who was very attentive even while she waited on the entire inside. The beers were excellent! I tried my first Saison and loved it. The husband got an IPA and reported it was quite tasty. The pizza was a good surprise! Lots of fresh veggies and yellow bell peppers were a hit. The sausage was tasty and was just the right amount of spice. I ate the leftover pizza for days after! I learned a lesson that there are about 20 kinds of heavy metal music. The music this Sunday was not the kind of heavy metal that I have heard before. However I got out my phone and used Soundhound and learned about death metal which I think this was...or I think that is what we listened to. read more

We stopped at Black Sky after a Yelp event next door at the space gallery. I had two beers, both of which were awesome. Which is great to say. . so many times i've tried breweries and you can taste their not good. . . Not black sky. Solid beers. . .a good few on draft, and a few guest beers While there we saw a lot of people eating pizza. The pizza looked good. . maybe next time the decor was maximum "dive" with nice amount of rock and roll and old arcade games. One step from walking onto the sons of anarchy set. . .but that was alright for our party. read more

Great atmosphere, beer, food and service! We dropped in for a late lunch and was not disappointed. A nice variety of craft beers on tap, the pizza was excellent and we enjoyed flour time here. Will definitely be back if I'm ever in the area! read more

Service today was great, beer was strong, and food was delish! We enjoyed the nice touch with the "rim job" on the pumpkin stout. We got the cheesy bread appetizers and it was soooo yummy. They have a pretty wide selection of beers as well so feel free to bring the whole crew. Everyone will find something they love. read more

Black Sky Brewery was a place that I had to check out as a metal fan, and I instantly fell in love with it. I mean how could I not, it had not only metal, but beer and pizza too. Now I'm not a doctor, but I do know that those three things are pivotal in living a fulfilling and happy life. It was essential that a place like this became a part of my regular spots, and I've never felt better. Now I have to reiterate this, it's a metal bar. You're not going to hear country, rap, or pop on the radio, it's metal that plays all the time, and if that bothers you, my condolences. This is a brewery, so they make their own beer on location. They've got a few different flavors and of course they're all given metal names. One of my favorite ones they have is the Pedal to the Metal. They also recently started bottling their own bombers, so it's nice to see them expanding, as it's well deserved. Their pizza is also fantastic. They do New Haven style thin pizza, and actually being from CT and frequenting New Haven, I can say they do a bang-up homage to the only thing CT has to be proud of, pizza. Their clams casino pizza is one that is very close to the original New Haven style and because of that, I'm hooked. In fact, one of the reasons why it's so good is that you don't have to be in crummy Connecticut to get it. They also have grinders, which while they don't look like the grinders that I'm used to, as they're more sandwiches instead of on grinder rolls- they still taste fantastic. As if beer, pizza, and metal wasn't enough, Black Sky even hosts concerts at times. You guessed it, they're metal concerts too. I've seen a few different shows here and they have all been fantastic. Sometimes they have them at night, but many other days, it's Sundays at 2pm, for their "metal matinees", which are free to attend. I've seen some good local bands here that I've become permanent fans of. It's a great thing that they give back to the local scence, and Denver is lucky to have a place like this within the city limits, and really, what else is there to do on a Sunday morning? Not to mention the giveaways they do as well. I won concert tickets from these guys to see the legendary King Diamond and I am fan for life. Black Sky is located at 5th & Sante Fe. You can get there via public transit by taking the light rail to the 10th & Osage station and then walking south less than a mile. Even if you don't like metal (wtf?!), you should still check out Black Sky. They've got great beer and great food and there's something for everyone, there's just more for metal fans. Black Sky is one of my favorite places out there and you should be a fan of theirs too. read more

I was visiting my brother in CO. He took me to this "Heavy Metal" pizza place, well it also turned to be a brewery. What a hidden gem, pizza was awesome and they're micro-brewery was even better. Yes they do play mostly Heavy Metal, so if you don't the music this might be for you. read more

I really dug what Black Sky had going on and I can't say that I care it is the second Heavy Metal Brewery in the area (and not the first). They had a great, low key atmosphere, decent beers (their own and a good selection of other local brews), food (yay, how many breweries nowadays just have beer and no food) and fun rock n roll environment. My favorite beer was the Toxic Zombie Pale (Ale). It was very smooth and drinkable. The Petal to the Metal with the rose and hibiscus was interesting, but I am not sure I could do a whole pint of it. At any rate, they will get you samplers of whatever you want so you can build your own taster menu. The only thing I would say was a little off was there was only 1 bartender on Saturday afternoon so he was a bit over worked and you had to actually go to the bar to order and take it back to the table - this was fine, but he comes out for the first round and then goes MIA, just say you have order at the bar so you don't sit there! Anyways, give it a try, it was nice brewery on Santa Fe. read more

I don't drink beer, but my friends do. I do, however, enjoy eating. I had their stuffed mushrooms, jalapeno poppers, garlic nubs, and bacon cheese jalapeno bread. All of it was effing delicious. I was looking forward to the spicy artichoke dip, but they apparently ran out. Boo. It's a metal-themed bar and they had a live band when we went that wasn't all that terrible. The sound system isn't too bad. Service was decent, but can be slow when it gets busy. read more

First off, not a fan of metal music but we were looking for someplace new to go to before the Bronco game. The waitress was extremely pleasant, helpful, and on her game. Tons of beer choices and loved having the option of doing beer flights. The pizza was average, we liked the meat pizza over the taco pizza which seemed to have pre-cooked packaged chicken and not a ton of flavor. But the crust was decent and the size good. The music, well like I said, not my first choice and it's super loud but hey, it's their bar and their atmosphere so I'll deal with it. The place itself is pretty cool and if I was going with the right crowd it would be fun. The beer is definitely their winner here. read more
