Alley Brews is a Denver brewery and café located just off Tennyson Street in the heart of the neighborhood. It carries forward the legacy of De Steeg Brewing—one of Denver’s first alleyway breweries. Founded in 2013, De Steeg quietly became a neighborhood favorite, known for bold Belgian styles and cozy, off-the-beaten-path vibes. - Yes, literally the entrance is in the alley!

In 2021, the brewery was renamed Berkeley Alley Beer Co., expanding from a 1-barrel to a 4-barrel brewhouse and continuing the tradition with a new chapter.

Then in 2025, the keys changed hands once more—this time to a women-owned team with deep roots in craft beer and a bold vision for what’s next.

We brew small-batch beers on site, showcasing rotating styles and seasonal releases alongside a curated beer menu. Our taproom is a place to explore local craft beer. Today, Alley Brews is more than a brewery — it’s a creative, welcoming space where beer, coffee, food, and non-alcoholic options all share the spotlight.

Our mission is to evolve alongside today’s craft drinkers and those drawn to what the world of craft can become—curious, boundary-pushing, and never stagnant.

Owners Liz and Chelsea bring years of industry experience and a passion for making the space more fun, more inclusive, and more community-driven. They're also the duo behind the Body By Beer Podcast—a video series celebrating beer, food, and the people who make the craft scene what it is.

We're proud to be a women-owned business in Denver and thrilled to be part of the vibrant Tennyson Street community.
