    I'm a Brewery fan for sure. This one surprised me. I have been there one and a half years ago in this very new spot in Fort Collins.We know 60 percent of brewing fail with in the first year ( esp in Los Angeles or Chicago). But here this one may arguable be the most growing brewery in Fort Collins. Food truck is in the parking lot & beer is great. But I don't like IPA , so there is not a lot of options unless you like Buds's taste. Bartenders are just typical Coloradans (Mountain culture ). I like the ambiance, open space & pretty local peeps hang out spot. They closed early though. Forrest setting with logs and dog friendly. Local folks mingling spot if you wanna see what is mountains men & women or whatever genders would be !

    Love the Mexican Lager at Stodgy!

    Stodgy Brewing is one of the newer craft breweries that have opened up in Fort Collins since I was last here to visit. Love the location here as it's close to the City Park area of town. One of my favorite parts of Fort Collins with many happy memories there. And I am happy to say that my experience at Stodgy just added to the positive memories of the area. I got one of my favorite lagers... especially for this time of year(Summer) the Mexican Lager from this brewery and enjoyed the light and smoky features to the beer. Then I did a shift and decided to try their gourmet root beer that was also made here and I really enjoyed that too. The creamy, vanilla features made this root beer a real charm! Wonderful outdoor seating area so if you are here when the weather is nice I definitely recommend taking advantage of that!

    Had many recommendations to come here. Finally made it. I tried the Porter and my husband had the West Coast IPA. We shared a Dunkel. Delicious! It was Saturday so the inside was quite crowded. The outside has plenty of seating. I bet this is an amazing space in the summer! We will surely be back!

    They have a really nice shaded outdoor area, and you can bring your dog. The beer was nice on a hot day. When we were there, there was a food truck, and we got jalapeño corn fritters. Also saw that they hold events during the week like Board Game Night.

    Bike parking at Stodgy

    It feels silly calling Stodgy the quintessential Fort Collins brewery, because aren't they all? But it really is wholesomely FoCo. I arrived by bike...and so did everyone else apparently. It took some finagling to find a place to lock up our two-wheeled steeds, but eventually we found a spot. I hope they consider putting in some additional bike parking eventually. Nevertheless, once parked, we found a great little spot on the lawn. We sipped our beers while perched on some tree stumps as the sun set behind the foothills, which were visible from where we sat and lovely as always. I'm pretty sure I got the Table Saison, but this was our third brewery of the day so forgive me if the exact details are a little fuzzy. What I definitely remember is that this is a cool place that attracts cool people. I'll definitely be back for a flight or another pint very soon.

    This Place! So Good! We hit all the breweries in town, including the corporate ones, but this was by far the beer, best atmosphere. If we would have come here first, we wouldn't have went anywhere else!

    Great beer and amazing space! We came here after it was recommended by a friend. It was a Thursday afternoon and we came around lunchtime. The space is awesome, with a little bit of private parking a plenty of neighborhood street parking. The staff was friendly and helpful. I ordered a flight to try a few different styles. The Helles and Vienna were good, but the pale ale and the hazy IPA were very good. The pale ale is a hoppy treat, with a clean finish and light sweetness that makes it extremely crushable and fun to drink...I'll be back for that beer alone. Most of the seating is outside, but the inside taproom is well decorated and comfortable. The neighborhood vibe here is maybe the best part. Nestled in this established area with many long-term residents will keep the place fun and appealing. I'll be back!

    Having a beer outside at Stodgy's feels like hanging out in a friend's rather than a business. Beers are great and staff is always friendly. Love it!

    Stodgy Brewing is a great little brewery in Fort Collins off of Laporte and Taft. All of their beers are unique and tasty. In my opinion, the real star of the show is their outdoor area. The front patio is super cute with rustic mountain town vibes. If you're looking to grab a beer with friends and enjoy a fun atmosphere, check out Stodgy!

    Great local brewery and the best food trucks. Must try the pizza and Italian donuts. The outside seating is beautiful with a well maintained garden and plenty of shade provided by tree's. Good beer selection and friendly staff. I'd put Stodgy on the list of must see breweries in Fort Collins.

    Saw this brewery being built a while ago. It's finally up so we decided to try it out! Drink menu was small but good. Just 10 beers, and food trucks throughout the week but no consistant food or snacks provided through the bar. Today's "food truck" was a table set out front with pastries which looked amazing, though I could have used a snack/dinner that wasn't desert. The great part about stodgys is really just their outside seating, theres tons of it and it is very aesthetic, it's really great they have a large amount of inside seating as well! Glad this business supports local food trucks and companies, will be back lots in the summer!

    This feels like a Joseph Oregon brewery. Forest setting, logs, cabin, casual, outdoor space and dog friendly. Incredible. Beers are too young, but the Hazy IPA passes the test. A little expensive and lapse on COVID wipedowns. But the bathrooms are unisex , one big room with individual stalls, welcome 2020! Great job.

For my main dish, I ordered the cottage pie (similar to shepherd's pie), and it was honestly really, really good. The flavors were on point, and the mashed potatoes on top were super comforting and well done. Definitely something I'd order again. The only downside was the service--it was just okay. Nothing terrible, but it definitely could've been better and more attentive. Overall, it's a solid spot with great food and a fun atmosphere. I'd come back, especially for that cottage pie.

If you want a late night whiskey or beer or maybe a hot dog this place is fine. But if you want a warm meal then go somewhere else. I don't even think they have the equipment for it. Last two times I accepted the food and said nothing. Thought it was quirky or just my mood. Tonight was just stupid. My daughter and I rode our bikes here and we both ordered potatoes. They were uncooked. Not even warm enough to melt butter. I had mine taken back and reheated and even with the oven and everything they were unable to melt the butter on top of the potato. My daughter didn't complain and just picked at hers while we waited. After spending an extra 10 minutes in the oven the butter was still not melted. I'm not 100% on cooking but I'm pretty sure thats not how it works. They took off $5 for the potato (out of the $25 price) and then the waitress tried to defend it by saying it was the type of cheddar that kept it from melting. I really hope they fail and we can get a competent dive bar here because it is nice to get a late night drink.

It takes a lot for us to leave a one-star review, but this experience, combined with the constant turnover of beertenders over the years, has finally pushed us to that point. Tonight, at 8:45 p.m. during last call, a new beertender named Rob poured me another beer. Then, at 9:12 p.m., he came over to remind us that they had closed at 9:00. We immediately gathered our things and left, but the interaction made us feel like we were being pushed out. I didn't even finish the beer I had just been served because we no longer felt welcome. For nearly 10 years, we've never been approached like that. We've often stayed up to 30 minutes after closing to finish beers that were poured at last call, and it has never been an issue. We fully understand and respect posted closing hours, but if customers are being served at last call, they should be given a reasonable opportunity to finish those beers without feeling rushed. What made the interaction even more confusing was that Rob was still in the middle of his own closing duties, like bringing in the outdoor cushions, so it didn't appear that our presence was delaying the brewery from closing. It's incredibly disappointing that after nearly two decades of supporting this brewery and being regular customers, this was the experience we had. Between the revolving door of beertenders and the way we were treated tonight, we've decided it's time to take our business elsewhere permanently.

They have a good sized screen for sports games and they are very kid friendly. They have clean restrooms and changing tables. For drinks and menus, they have many different beer choices, a selection of wine, visiting taps, and a few non alcoholic options such as sodas. They also offer good snacks such as pizzas, salsa platters, pretzels, burritos, chips, and kids snacks like goldfish, chips and Nutella snacks. Everything is reasonably priced and we do recommend this great spot to those with and without little ones.

The burger was very tasty (a fat bomb) and with the fries was a substantial amount of food - I was only able to eat about half of it all. However, that burger had to be the saltiest burger I've ever eaten. Curious, I went to the DC Oakes website to find nutritional information about my meal and there is no nutritional information. A third-party website (Marcos.menu) offered the following on the Bomb Diggity: Calories: 1200; Protein: 50g; Carbs: 55g; Fat: 85g. Nothing about sodium. My wife is on a sodium-restricted diet and she knows not to order anything like this burger. But still, nutritional information would be nice to know. When do you plan on putting this information on your menu for your customers? I will return to sample more of their beer and food selections.
