Downtown Aquarium

Somewhat smaller than other aquariums in the country, this is a good place to witness some bizarre lifeforms with worrying that you'll run out of energy half way through. Especially with kids, the modest scale makes a visit here easily manageable.

The Source

The Source epitomizes the soul of the surrounding RiNo district. Recently wrought by industrial blight, entrepreneurs have ingeniously repurposed abandoned buildings and scrap materials to ressurect the neighborhood as the city's new artistic hub. Not only a one-stop shop for all things gourmet, the Source is also a captivating architectural space.

In 2010 new owners took over, renamed the venue Cervantes, and made some technical improvements. The music hosted has shifted from jazz towards dubstep, electronica, hip-hop acts, DJs, bluegrass and jam bands. Cervantes consists of two venues, the larger 'masterpiece ballroom' and the smaller 'otherside' just next door.

The Great American Beer Festival
Museums & Galleries

This is easily the biggest and most diverse beer festival in the world- if you consider yourself a beer fan, you owe it yourself to go at least once in your life. Unfortunately entry is rather expensive (the ticket price includes as many samples as you care to drink), and the event sells out months ahead of time so planning ahead is required.

During his self-imposed exile from the New York School Still painted a vast body of work. Denver was personally selected by the artist to house his entire collection. The museum built for the purpose is a masterpiece, with a perforated ceiling that filters natural light, illuminating the space without exposing the paintings to harmful UV rays.

Originally occupying a renovated fish market, the museum has majorly upgraded in 2007 to an environmentally sustainable facility designed by the acclaimed architect David Adjaye.

The Hamilton wing, an angular conglomeration of steel prisms by Daniel Libeskind, supposedly references the contours of the Rocky Mountains but looks like architecture from another world. Despite giving some visitors vertigo with its lack of straight walls and a persistently leaky roof, the structure is an impressive feat of design and engineering.

By booking a tour ahead of time, you'll have the opportunity to appreciate the entire process of crafting spirits. Leopold Bros. malt their own barley, mill their own grains, ferment their own mash, distill it all on site and never add artificial ingredients. The tools are displayed in immaculate German style, and of course samples are plentiful.

The lounge is atmospherically decorated with real barrels, all the cocktails on the menu are delicious and well-priced at $8 a piece, and if you really want a whiskey-soaked education you can spring for the $22 flight of different infused varieties. Better yet, get behind the scenes with a distillery tour.

Entry to this vibrant event is entirely free, apart from whatever you choose to spend on the generally cheap food and drinks. The location is a short drive, bus or bike from the city center, yet far enough to land you in a community much more representative of Denver's majority than most people you'll encounter in shopping malls.
