What a surprising season so far for the Denver Bronco Fans
by Broncoblogger on Oct.29, 2009, under Bronco Coaching, Bronco Defense, Broncos Offense, Denver Broncos, Denver Sports
It has been a while, but I am back!!! What about them BRONCOS!!!???
Can’t help but write about the incredible job that Coach Josh McDaniels is doing so far! these guys are playing as a TEAM and have a winning attitude!! The way the coaching staff makes adjustments at half time is amazing..they come out the second half with new life and alot of stamina.
I was one that thought it was going to be an OK season (9-7). The way they are playing they could do far better than that! The next few games will tell the story- @ Baltimore, Steelers, Redskins and Giants..that would scare any team. Josh has them ready to play every week. His enthusiasm and youth seem to be contagious, and Mike Nolan has the defense playing with fire and a will to finish off the other team!!
I give them a chance to win every time they step on the field. What do you think?
I know what many people are saying” jumping on the band wagon” or “they are not as good as they look”
But, you have to give credit where credit is due..they beat Dallas, New England and San Diego(in San Diego) and remember the division we are in(not that great). I believe we have a great chance to win the division and go to the playoffs! Where we go from there is icing on the cake!
Kyle Orton is doing all he is asked, 1 int in 6 games and not making bad decisions! Brian Dawkins, Elvis Dumerville, Champ are leading the defense. And how can we forget Eddie Royal TD run backs on a kickoff and a punt, in the same game!!!!
All I can say is- GO BRONCOS!!!!!!!

Rock Bottom Brewing Denver Colorado
by admin on Jul.19, 2009, under Brew Events, Brew Reviews, Denver Restaurants, Micro Breweries
Touring the Brewery part of Rock Bottom Brewery.. a brew dudes’ dream come true!
The tour was a ton of fun.. We got to see the vats they brewed the beer in and the brew masters quarters. John was very knowledgeable made you feel right at home when he spoke.
Got a tour of the Brewing area and a chance to talk to the Brew Master-John McClure..he has been the Brew Master at Rock Bottom Downtown for 11 years and been brewing for 17 years.

John does an incredible job putting together these brews four days a week. Rock Bottom has 18 brews on tap right now..oops! I mean 17 because the Cider brew he made disappeared so fast! ( I guess it was a little bit popular.)

Rock Bottom Downtown Denver was the 1st Rock Bottom restaurant..it was named this because it was the bottom of the Prudential building(slogan-you got a piece of the Rock) You Have Not Been To Denver Until You Have Been To ROCK BOTTOM!!

The Assistant Brew Master is Doug.. he created the New Brew called The American Dream..Crystal Malt and dry hopped..mmm, the brew was awesome!!

The Brew Masters choice was Deep Drought Stout.. it had a good coffee flavor and a smooth taste that went down good!!
Hearing about the different brews like the Saison brewed at 85 degrees and carbonated or the other brews and how they come up with the new ideas on the brews coming out.
We were quite the brew crew!

On July 23rd 2009, they are coming out with a Strawberry Blonde Ale..sounds like an awesome brew to me..count me in to check it out!!

This is the face of a happy brew dude with new microbrew logo glasses to chill in the freezer. These glasses with the 6 pack of 22 oz bombers sell for $29.95.
Oh and…. go ahead and park in their garage… they validate parking… No one told me!

Via Baci Italian Bistro
by BrewDude on Jul.03, 2009, under Brew Reviews, Denver Restaurants
Ate at Via Baci the other night and it was Exceptional! The service was outstanding and the food was spectacular!
Had the Burrata on the appetizer menu , which is homemade mozzarella stuffed with ricotta cheese (a cheese lovers dream.) Also had the Bruschetta, nice flavor profile, lighter appetizer.

We had the Tuna Salad-a seared peppered tuna steak on mixed greens and a multitude of tasty items. i am not a seafood lover but eating this tuna, was like eating a Tenderloin, seared to perfection! ( i couldn’t stop eating it.)
With my meal, I had a Buffalo Gold Brew, very nice, crisp taste, great with the meal.
For the main course, we had the Chicken Bianco Pizza and also the Prociutto E Rucola.

The Chicken Bianco was very good, many different flavors came out and it seemed very healthy..my favorite was the Prociutto E Rucola- good size pieces of prociutto, fresh mozz, large strips of basil, arugula on their home made San Marzano tomato sauce..it melts in your mouth!!

Great atmosphere! the smell of the pizza cooking in the 700 degree oven, the smell of cooked garlic in the air and the staff was very attentive. Shea was our waitress and she was just AWESOME! Oh and did I mention they make the mozzarella fresh daily! What a concept??
I would highly recommend this Bistro to anyone who enjoys a great meal, super wait staff and likes a nice atmosphere!
Yes that’s me drinking the brewski!

Take your lady out here to celebrate this weekend!
