Resolute Brewing
28 APR 2023 · Longtime sports-talk radio host Shawn Drotar (@sdrotar) and hospitality expert nonpareil Erik Trujillo (@lilet88) visit Resolute Brewing (http://www.resolutebrewingco.com/), a hidden gem in the busy Denver Tech Center area that’s very near to where Shawn hosts his weekday radio show at Mile High Sports. Shawn may be a regular, but Erik’s never been, so Resolute’s Katherine Parris joins the duo to talk about the seven-year-old brewery’s success with its wide variety of rotating brews, its dedication to their motto of "Community, Craft, Culture"… and how they come up with some of the most creative names in the business.
Bierstadt Lagerhaus
6 APR 2023 · Longtime sports-talk radio host Shawn Drotar (@sdrotar) and hospitality expert nonpareil Erik Trujillo (@lilet88) find themselves a little bit embarrassed that, despite the fact that it’s adjacent to the Coors Field parking lot, they’ve never been to the cavernous Bierstadt Lagerhaus (http://www.bierstadtlager.com/). They remedy that with Kira Martinez, who’s been there since the former book-bindery-turned-brewery and tap house opened. She explains their dedication to traditional German brewing purity laws ("Reinheitsgebot") and discusses the challenges of creating great lagers. Shawn and Kira discuss "The Big Lebowski" at the bar — which was reclaimed from Denver’s legendary Elitch Lanes — and after discussing how much room there is for activities, Kira and Erik wonder if they just became best friends.
Campus Lounge
31 MAR 2023 · Longtime sports-talk radio host Shawn Drotar (@sdrotar) and hospitality expert nonpareil Erik Trujillo (@lilet88) visit a Denver classic when they drop into the Campus Lounge on Broadway (https://www.campusdenver.com/). One of the University of Denver’s legendary hangouts since the 1970's, the "upscale dive bar" has been reinvented with a sophisticated bar menu and a Sunday brunch. Shawn teases Erik about his unfamiliarity with some of the lounge’s 1980's arcade games, and Erik teases Shawn about… being old enough to have played them at all.
El Bingo Loco
26 MAR 2023 · Back at Denver’s Number Thirty Eight (https://nmbr38.com/), sports-talk radio host Shawn Drotar (@sdrotar) and hospitality expert nonpareil Erik Trujillo (@lilet88) take in a particularly unique experience. The cavernous taproom hosts bingo games from time to time… but at Number 38, it’s hosted by a masked luchador with a stand-up comedy routine. Despite’s Shawn’s assertion that bingo is basically "the world’s longest scratch-off lottery ticket," Erik’s intent on showing him why the fun-loving group setting makes all the difference.
South Broadway Country Club
17 MAR 2023 · Visiting the historic and vibrant neighborhood along Tennyson, longtime sports-talk radio host Shawn Drotar (@sdrotar) and hospitality expert nonpareil Erik Trujillo (@lilet88) drop in on the South Broadway Country Club (https://www.southbroadwaycc.com/tennyson); where cutting-edge golf simulators meet classic, mid-century clubhouse style. Joined by West End Tap House’s (https://westendtaphouse.com/) Dan Johnson — and the sizable pizza that Erik picked up across the street — the trio end up talking about indoor golf, mushroom "hunting," and why these kinds of combined spaces create so much fun.

The pair pick out some fruity, flagship brews from the hospitable beer garden on Blake, while talking about how Erik’s stick-in-the-mud mentality about the NBA All-Star Game and Shawn’s inability to keep any of his houseplants alive, except for his one, "mutant" cactus…
Burly Brewing
10 FEB 2023 · Longtime sports-talk radio host Shawn Drotar (@sdrotar) and hospitality expert nonpareil Erik Trujillo (@lilet88) head south to Castle Rock to visit Burly Brewing (http://burlybrewing.com/).
