With deep roots in the Grand Junction community and our hearts in Colorado beer, we’ve come to South Downtown to thrive at the edge of the river. The Grand Valley is our playground and Edgewater is your pub. Over the years we’ve grown deep roots in the Grand Valley and put our heart and soul into Colorado beer. Edgewater Brewery is the fruit of our labor! Tucked into the banks of the Colorado River, this 3 acre state of the art, craft brewing facility is a high desert playground.
American pub food made from the choicest of ingredients, 11 beers on tap along with a stellar full service bar, 1500 square feet of lawn and a stage for live music all come together in this unique yet classic Colorado venue. Off the grill we have Angus beef burgers, German style bratwurst, Big City Red gourmet hot dogs. To keep it fresh and healthy we have a wide variety of salads and some light bites. Serving both beers brewed on site and at our original brewpub, we have 7 mainstays, 2 rotating seasonal beers, and 2 cask engines, as well as wine on tap and Colorado cider.
Corn hole? Disc golf? Live Music? Beer Festival? Yeah, we’ve got those too. lawn games year round and outside events spring, summer, and fall. Call in if you would like to book the lawn or brewery for a private or community happening.
