Big Choice Beard

Zach was another bearded gem we encountered at the Denver Beer Festivus on Saturday. Zach is a brewer at Big Choice Brewing in Broomfield, and started growing his beard about three months ago when he decided to break into the brewing industry. He’s still a newbie to the Denver area, being here about a year, arriving via Dallas. Obviously, local beard fans are very lucky he made the switch to D-town. Zach boldly declared he is never going to stop growing his beard until he retires, or dies first. We admire such beard dedication!

Metal Brewery Beard, It’s TRVE

We had the pleasure to meet Nick at the Denver Beer Festivus sponsored by Imbibe.com on Saturday in Denver. Nick is the proprietor at TRVE Brewing Company located at Second and Broadway, which specializes in making great brews AND playing metal music. Nick, originally from the east coast, started growing his beard around 2006, and has had his current beard about six months. His favorite thing about his beard is the attention it gets him, and deservedly so!  TRVE Brewing Company is currently open Wednesday through Saturday, but in January you can enjoy a brew there on Sundays, too.  We encourage you to drop by sooner than later—it’s not everywhere you can enjoy a great beer, metal music, and admire an awesome beard.

Beard Lust for the Holidays

We happened upon Will and his long and luxurious beard on Friday night at the SIE Film Center (formerly the Colfax Film Center) where he works.  He’s been growing his beard for about 13 months, and again, laziness is a key factor to the production of Will’s awesome beard, not-to-mention he’s blessed with exceptionally speedily beard growth. Originally from Southern Illinois, Will, who lives in Denver now, told us his beard is currently the longest it’s ever been, and his lovely wife Rebecca certainly approves; at their wedding last year they even played the song “Beard Lust” by the band Natalie Portman’s Shaved Head. Trust us, you should queue up that song ASAP, it’s totally worth a listen!  Thanks Will!

Other Worldly Beard

Ryan was another beardie we were lucky enough to meet at the Of Monsters and Men show in Boulder last week.  Ryan’s had his beard for about four years, and again, laziness in reference to shaving is the main contributor to his handsome beard.  Ryan is another wonderful Colorado native beard: he now lives in Boulder, but grew up in the Littleton area. While growing out that amazing facial mane, he works as a mechanical engineer for the University of Colorado in satellite and space weather research.  We’d certainly vouch that his beard is out of this world!

The Bold and the Beard-iful

We couldn't NOT approach Cory and inquire about his bold and brash beard. A Colorado native, he and his beard have resided in Denver for the past two years, and he's been growing his beard about fie years. He rocks his beard mainly because his wife loves it (obviously, a woman of great taste!) and he used to like "bad facial hair" and thought it was funny to groom his facial hair in a variety of ways, until he realized the beard suited him best. Cory works as a social worker in the Denver area, helping connect the community to different resources, and we're sure his awesome beard is a great asset to that cause.  Awesome to meet you and admire your beard, Cory!

Wits End, White Stripes

We met Scott, self-professed Owner, Brewer, and Dream at Wits End Brewing Company in Denver at the Beer and Bacon Fest at Mile High Station in Denver on Sunday. Scott's been growing his impressive beard since August, and when asked if the coloration was natural his response was "Do I look like a guy who'd dye his beard?" It's that amazing natural talent we love and appreciate here at Beards of Denver. Originally from Seattle, Scott's been in Denver about 11 years and we highly recommend going to Wits End to say hi to Scott, admire his beard, and sample Wits End's amazing coffee beer--you won't be disappointed in the coffee or the beard!

Chip Off the Old Block

We were lucky enough to happen upon Chip and his red beard at Don’s Mixed Drinks this weekend. Originally hailing from Delaware, he’s been a Denverite since 2005, and has been growing his bad-ass beard since 2006. Chip obviously loves his beard because it provides coverage for his face, which we were quick to point out is beautiful, to which Chip responded that he can’t imagine what he looks like without it. Though his family hates his beard, his love for it triumphs and hence, the beard stays.  Hemingway once asked, “What would your life be if described in six words?” Chip’s response was: “Can’t picture myself without my beard.” We’re certainly glad he keeps it around.

Cup of Joseph

We had the pleasure of meeting J (AKA Joseph) while having a cup of joe at Pablo’s coffee shop in Denver. J has been growing his lengthy beardlocks for about a year and a half, and we wouldn’t expect a beard any less stellar than this from a midwest man; he’s originally from Wisconsin, and, of course, both a Badgers fan and, above all, a Packers fan. A screen printer here in town, we may need to enlist his skills, and his beard, for the making of some forthcoming Beards of Denver merch!

Seattle Strength

Nathan (left) and Feras (right) are two sassy strong men from Seattle who sported some seriously stellar beards. Nathan is a veteran of competition, this being is fourth overall and first nationals, and since he’s always had the gift of growing a beard naturally he sought out to capitalize on his talent. Feras, rockin’ that orange suit like nobody’s business, decided after college he needed to grow a beard because it was time to become a man. And we couldn’t love those glorious beards more, guys. Trust us.
