We had so much fun here yesterday, I'm so bummed they are closing. The inside (and tent outside), are all decorated for Christmas - complete with ornaments, and trees hanging from the ceiling. As if that isn't fun enough, they have a rubber ducky scavenger hunt - which was so much fun! If you're reading this, and are not sure if it's doable - it is, we completed it, and won a 6 pack. The beers are really good, you order at the bar, then have a seat wherever you like. The bartenders are super nice, and may confirm a duck or two if you are debating about the colors of one/what you are seeing. While there isn't good here, you can bring food in - we ordered from the Mexican place next door this time, and it was delicious. Highly recommend stopping in, and enjoying a beer and the festive decor, before they close! read more

Call to Arms has been our go to before heading to a show at The Oriental for some time. Their beers are always solid. They decorate it up for holidays and make folks feel welcome. The evening we came in, we were meeting up with friends before a show. We had all picked up carryout food to have with our beers. I enjoyed Operation Steingrabber, a Czech Dark Lager. It went well with my dinner. read more

We found this place during the market. We stopped because of the outdoor seating and it was a nice day. The beer flight was a sour, IPA, fruit beer and Hefeweizen. The beer was good. The service was fast as you order at the bar. The vibes are chill here. It's a good spot for an afternoon beer. read more

OG Tennyson brewery. I'll start off by saying that I LOVE Josh, Shelby, and Chris. But honestly they do an amazing job. Friendly, customer service focused, knowledgeable about beer, playing good music, and holding down the bar. Nice outdoor space when the weather is warmer. Lots of seating inside plus the side room complete with shuffle board. A few TVs but the vibe is to sit and have a drink. Read a book. Talk to your neighbor. Order some food from next door and enjoy an hour or two by yourself. Family friendly and great for groups too. A bit of everything on the tap list too. Always an IPA or two. West coast and generally a hazy. A lager and a sour of some sort. A seltzer and recently a hard tea. Think Twisted Tea but not as syrupy or processed. You can really taste the tea leaves. I'm not gluten free but this is an amazing drink. Sometimes double IPAs and double dry hopped versions of the flagship beers such as Janet Reno. Definitely a spot to stop on Tennyson or in the Regis/Berkeley area. Gotta pay respects to the classics. A few hundred apartments are opening down the road so I'm unsure how that will affect business. For me, Call to Arms is the anchor for "lower Tennyson." Always a friendly staff, regulars, and atmosphere. Cheers! read more

This is a huge place that has many different seating options for your party's needs. They go big for holidays, so the place was decked out in hilarious holiday decor. Mentioned in Westword's 100 Bars, Call to Arms offers a variety of beer options. Also new to me, is hard tea. I gave this a try in a little 4 oz taster and was not disappointed. This would be my go to if I were a regular here. I did try the Janet Reno Dance Party brew as well. Hilarious title for those of us from the 90s but not my jam in terms of beer. I will say that of all the breweries in Denver I have been to, Call to Arms was the most fun! This is a very happening place and on a Friday afternoon, it was real busy, real fast, so you know it's good. read more

I am not a big beer drinker but appreciate that Call to Arms has hard tea, hard seltzers, and sour options. If you are one that is afraid to commit, you can get 4 oz tasters between $3-$5 depending on your selection. Call to Arms has many seating options, both indoors and outside in their tent. Food can be ordered from nearby restaurants (such as Kalaka) or you can enjoy packaged snacks from the bar such as Kettle Head Popcorn or Dots Pretzels. We went for their Big Holiday Energy Pop-Up and it lived up to the title. Wrapped gifts and glittery tress hung from the ceilings as you are surrounded by everything red and green. Chairs are covered in Santa hats and a faux fireplace is flanked by two crooked Whoville Trees with a Grinch arm poking out. A line forms at the bar to order your drinks. Very festive and fun for the holidays. read more

Great brewery. Always wanted to stop by. Bunch of friends stop by during the bust holiday seasons end. They had a nine additional tented area for all the people. The beer selections were far & wide and great tasting. Ww came during their Christmas themed time. There was a nice National Lampoon's RV out side. We got cool commemorative Moose glassware from our drinks. All in All this is a great meeting place for friends and business partners. The only down part was so many kids there, but I think that's just a downtown hipster Denver thing. Kids in Bars.....Yeah that's just different. But that's another time to discuss that. Anyways we will definitely be back. read more

I came to CtA looking to participate in their Oktoberfest celebration. I was a day late, but that was my only disappointment. The bartender was a charming woman who helped with my tasting plank. Once I had finished the sampler, I asked her about their IPAs. I've never been a fan but wondered if she could recommend one I should try. While they weren't currently pouring her recommended "gateway" IPA, she really liked the Stab in the Dark, a West Coast IPA. I am sold. This was an excellent brew and I could become a believer. This place had a great vibe, lots of room for groups, and in a fantastic Denver neighborhood. I would recommend without qualification. read more

Call to Arms Brewing Company is one of my favorite local breweries. Their Helles is absolutely fantastic - crisp, smooth, and super easy to drink. My friend swears by their Hazy IPA, Janet Reno, and I have to admit it's pretty great too. The indoor space has a cozy, quaint vibe that's perfect for a chill afternoon, and the outdoor area has tons of picnic-style seating - ideal for hanging out with friends or enjoying a sunny Denver day. Great beer, great people, great atmosphere. Can't recommend it enough! read more

Great, fast service. Came here after an early dinner at Parisi for a quick round before heading home. Cute decor, good music... amazing beers. I got a canned kombucha (pineapple/peach) as I'm off alcohol for a week after getting fresh ink... but the family really loved the Coffee Oats and Hose (porter) as well as the Operation Steingrabber (Czech dark lager). The smell from the coffee oats and hose was heavenly and a small sip I had was yummy! I love the names of the beers and would love to come back when it's not during arctic blast and the patio is open. Such a cute little spot! read more

Stopped by for the Christmas pop up (big holiday energy) and it definitely lived up to its namesake! They go all out for the decor not just for Christmas but other holidays/events as well. Along with beer they also serve hard tea and seltzer that they make in house. read more

Excellent quality is just one of the hallmarks of this brewery. Aside from having a large outdoor patio, it has a pub-like feel near the bar itself. Their flagship seltzer (La Clawsuit w/ Peach, Orange & Guava) is way better than most. I'm not an IPA guy, but I know a fair number of people who enjoy Janet Reno's Dance Party -- A Hazy IPA. I am also quite fond of Operation Steingrabber -- A dark Czech lager. I can almost always find something to like here, and it is the easiest brewery to which I can walk, which makes this a frequent first or last stop on a Tennyson crawl. The service here is consistently good. I also tend to run into a good crowd of folks when visiting. read more

Great beers with rotating selection. Best part of all is that it's gluten reduced beer and you can't even tell. Aka I don't get gassy after drinking beers for once. A cozy bar to chat with friends, play board games, even shuffleboard. A few other notable things that stand out: Very family friendly Comfy Outside food allowed Outdoor patio, so dogs allowed Wifi TVs for sports game or what have you Street/residential parking, usually not bad read more

We enjoyed Call to Arms during Christmas time - the decorations were fun and the vibes were great! Beer was good as well, we enjoyed their Lager and Hazy IPA. Only bummer was how popular this spot is, it ended up being standing room only. Still didn't keep us from enjoying a beer! read more

Call to arms is a great brewery! I've always been able to find a beer I enjoy ! The last time we went was during great American beer festival and they had a tent set up on the outside patio for live music which was super fun! Staff is always friendly and you can bring your own food! There's a Mexican spot in the front of the building, I've never had it but it seemed pretty popular! read more

One of my favorite breweries in Denver! It is located on Tennyson Street and just north of the busy part, which makes parking easy. They have a large inside space with patio tables outside. Their beer selection is great and always changing! We love the Halloween and other seasonal decorations here. The servers are always super friendly and helpful in selecting one of their many beers. read more

Another solid brewery in Denver! But I'm sure there's plenty of competition (usually friendly competition between breweries) in Denver that the craft brew scene knows they better crank out some impressive beers! I've been wanting to try Call to Arms for a little while and was excited when the opportunity arose. I had one of their most popular selling beers, The Ballroom Beer. This was a nice and light lager with a great flavor to it but with just enough crispness to keep it refreshing! Easily drinkable and easy to get more than one round with this beer! I would love to explore some more of their beer choices in the future should another opportunity should pop up! read more

This brewery is my go-to spot, especially with all the other bars, breweries and restaurants Tennyson has to offer. Abby, Chris, Shelby, Josh, and all the workers at CTA are very accommodating and welcoming (especially if it's your first time there). They have a wide-beer selection to meet the needs of craft beer lovers (ales, IPAs, lagers, porters, etc.). As an IPA enthusiast, the classic CTA IPA, Cool Story Hansel IPA (West Coast), Janet Reno Hazy IPA, and Akin IPA (Double-Dry Hopped Hazy) are must try's. Plus, CTA loves a theme and will decorate the brewery depending on the season (Christmas time gets quite busy with the Big Holiday Energy decorations, it's quite impressive. If you are ever in the area, drop by Call to Arms and show this small business some love! read more

My daughter and her new husband recently held their wedding reception at Call to Arms. What a fun venue. We had over 100 people in attendance, and there was plenty of space to accommodate this group without feeling crowded. They don't serve food (usually have food trucks for that). We had street tacos catered in which worked out great. The whole vibe was fun and laid back. They have both indoor and outdoor areas and opened the big garage doors so it was well integrated. The beer was great, with plenty of gluten free options. The bartenders, Drew, Joey, and Alex, were so friendly, accommodating, helpful, and upbeat throughout the evening. They helped us with making the place look great, were very easy to work with and considerate. Many of the guests told us what a great place it was to have the reception. It was perfect! Highly recommend this place for events! read more

Fun Fact: "Brewer owned and operated, Call to Arms places the utmost importance on... quality of product and the taproom experience." (calltoarmsbrewing.com) This past week I happened to find myself in this brewery in the Berkeley neighborhood off Tennyson, and found the taproom all decked out for Pride Month! And boy, do they go all out! While there, I enjoyed: * Blueberries Are F****** Purple, a collab with Uhl's Brewing, this blueberry, lemon, and basil sour teased you with sour without blowing your palate out. 6.5% ABV Narnia of Partya, a kiwi hefeweizen, which is also their Pride Beer, drank smooth and with definite notes of kiwi. 5.5% ABV * These beers delivered. I'm not a fan of beers that promise tastes and then you have to work to find them. Both brews left zero doubt and took no effort to find and enjoy the flavors. And the staff creates a welcoming environment, fulfilling the mission of a great taproom experience. read more

Nice atmosphere and the staff are super nice. The beers weren't super good but I would come back to try a few more.

Yesss!!! I love exploring new breweries in Denver, and Call To Arms has quickly become another favorite. I was meeting a date here and arrived a little early to get some work done on my laptop. Grabbed a beer at the bar (staff is so great) and chilled at one of the barrels. There were groups of people in the other room clearly working on projects, so they were on the same vibe. Free WiFi is always a nice perk. I can't remember which IPA I ordered, but I was happy with the taste and overall tap selection. read more

I came here on a very busy Monday night. So busy that I wasn't allowed to order a flight. But I ended up getting three out of the four beers I wanted to try. So I took a seat at the bar and had my beers. I loved schwarzbiers but the one here didn't cut it. The sour and coffee porter more than made up for it. Those two were very good. The coffee porter wasn't sweet and I love that. Great vibe in the taproom, seems like I walked into a party. read more

Call to Arms was one of the last breweries we checked out in the Denver area. We visited it on the way to the airport to catch out flight to go home. Because we were cutting it pretty close, we ended up getting a Growler. I had to Google "Can I take a growler on a plane". The answer is a responding yes! I don't remember the name of the beer that we got, but it was essentially a mango hazy IPA. When I opened up the growler a couple of days after returning home, the mango taste was strong but not too overpowering. Out of all the beers we had in Denver, I have to say this one was one of the best. Really wish we had the opportunity to check out their others beers but we had already returned home. Oh well, see you next time Denver. read more

By far the best brewery in all of Denver! The most friendly staff. Aaron, Gabby, Katie and Alex are all super nice. Their beer is gluten reduced. You can't taste the difference but it makes it so nice for anyone who has a gluten intolerance. They have shuffle board, live music, fun events, and they always decorate so well during the holidays. Their beer is delicious. I'm a big fan for life! Don't miss out on this place if you're looking to try a new brewery in Denver. read more

Double double toil and trouble Fire burn and cauldron bubble! When it is difficult to find the right brewery. When life seems to be getting you down.... well then it is to to A Call to Arms! Good brewery, they make their beautiful brews in the back. No witches brew here, well maybe a good witch has contributed. Great family and friend place to come. Otis Redding is playing while I write this and he is setting the vibe. Fun and relaxed. So come here when you are still up and energized. No 'Farewell To Arms' here. read more

Should rename it a dog park. I will not return. I am allergic to dogs and there are dogs every where. The folks at the table next to us allowed their dog to wander off leash and jump on me. Two other dogs got into a bit of a scuffle. Barking and chaos. Ridiculous if you are not a fan of pets. Staff seems too high to care. read more

They have the best, friendliest, coolest staff. Great beer, great vibes. Easy to see, this place straight up slaps. Some tips: you can order food from mas kaos (pizza and tacos) next door and have it delivered to you in CTA. You can also get food delivered. They have a big, dog friendly patio for nice days. Shuffleboard table in the back. Lots of kids here. read more

Not sure how I've gone so many years without reviewing CtA but here we are. I LOVE it here - the atmosphere and the beers are great!

If you haven't been, go! read more

Great place to meet a friend and trade battle stories, and that's exactly what I did. All of the beers here are great. And that's impressive because they run the gamut as far as styles are concerned: they've got clean German lagers, botanical, aromatic sours, and, my favorite, big 'ol hop-bombs! I would move to this neighborhood so this could be my haunt. If I lived in Denver, of course. read more
