Bru Handbuilt Ales Eats - Boulder

Man, this place is a hidden gem. My wife and I ate here on a whim and we are glad we did. The beer flight was good. We chose our favorite beers after trying the flight. The food was really good and full of flavor. I highly recommend the corn fritters and the calamari. Our favorite beers were the 5290 and the Nitro Irish Stout. We will be back.

Good food. Tasty beers. Wood fired oven. Went during the week for lunch and there were only a few people there. Had the Bahn Mi sandwich and Nitro Irish Stout. Both were delicious! Will definitely go back to try more beers and food.

Their brick oven pizza and chicken wings paired wonderfully with one of their flavorful microbrews. I was a bit disappointed to find that the Nitro India Brown Ale was unavailable, as the keg had just run out. However, I thoroughly enjoyed two glasses of their Parc Mosaic American Pale Ale. My friends and I decided to try the Bru Pizza, a menu staple, and it did not disappoint. It had a delightful mix of sweet and savory flavors, enhanced by its light, thick crust. The chile-soy glazed wings were incredibly tasty, and I'm pretty sure I could have devoured a whole order by myself. Next time I visit, I know the wings will be a must-order, but I also want to explore other pizza options on the menu. Overall, Bru is a fantastic choice for casual dining, whether you're planning a date night, a get-together with friends, or a relaxing happy hour with coworkers in Boulder. It was refreshing to escape the crowded happy hour spots on Pearl St and Walnut St and instead enjoy this hidden gem on Arapahoe. I highly recommend Bru and can't wait to return soon!

The waitress was friendly and kept a close eye on the table so that we always had plenty of water and never needed anything. The menu isn't very large but there was a great diversity of food that you can pick from. The Thai soup was tasty but fairly spicy. The Caesar salad was great as well. There was a nice selection of beer and the lemongrass one and the pumpkin one we had were very good.

Could not have had a better experience for New Years dinner. The tasting menu was excellent: oysters, curried lobster bisque, and lamb t-bone (perfect char), and the beignets were all delicious. Beer pairings were also awesome: saison, nitro brown, Imperial IPA, and a winter ale all went well. Ian is the man and will take excellent care of you.
