A Colorado Craft Beer Legacy Continues with Upslope Brewing
The vibrant craft beer scene in Colorado is getting a fresh infusion of passion and vision with the recent announcement that Upslope Brewing is joining Wilding Brands. Known for their meticulous dedication to brewing excellence and a deep connection with the Colorado community, Upslope Brewing is set to blossom under the new alliance. Eric Foster, CEO of Wilding Brands, expressed excitement about this partnership, highlighting Upslope’s alignment with their mission: to create a family of exceptional Colorado craft beverage companies.
While Upslope’s production will now benefit from Wilding’s advanced facilities in Denver, beer lovers can still indulge in their favorite Upslope crafts at the Boulder taprooms on Lee Hill and Flatirons Park, as well as the Aprés Outpost in Silverthorne. These beloved taprooms, cherished for their warm atmospheres and community vibes, will remain overseen by their original owner-operators.
Striding Forward with Upslope Brewing
Matt Cutter, Founder and President of Upslope Brewing, is confident about the journey ahead. With nearly two decades of brewing under their belt, Upslope sees this partnership as a continuation of their commitment to quality and community. Cutter believes Eric Foster and the Wilding team share this passion for advancing Colorado’s craft beverage industry, ensuring the brand continues to thrive and evolve.
Upslope fans can look forward to seeing their beloved brews on store shelves and in taprooms, alongside an exciting range of seasonal offerings and exclusive small-batch creations. While the specific financial aspects of the acquisition remain private, the focus remains clearly on the beers that have captured the hearts of locals and tourists alike.
