Brewer's Background:

Founded in 1971, the Bull & Bush Pub & Brewery was literally moved brick by brick from London to Denver, bringing authentic English pub culture to Colorado. In 1997, the establishment began brewing its own beers on-site, combining Old World brewing methods with Rocky Mountain creativity. Today, it stands as one of Denver’s most iconic brewpubs, known not only for its handcrafted ales and lagers but also for its extensive whiskey, bourbon, and scotch collection and a menu of hearty pub fare that has earned a loyal following.

Serving Suggestions:

Serve at 45–50°F (7–10°C) in a traditional pint glass or mug to highlight its balance of malt and hop character. Perfect alongside pub classics like fish and chips, prime rib, buffalo burgers, or shepherd’s pie. It also pairs beautifully with mild cheeses or roasted nuts for a casual session.

The Bull & Bush Steve’s Snappin Ale is more than just a beer; it’s a Denver institution in a glass, bridging the warmth of English tradition with the adventurous spirit of Colorado craft brewing.
