Sip

Honey Elixir Bar 

Denver

Tempt your taste buds with The Silk Road, made with rum, honey and coconut cream. The non-alcoholic Mother's Milk is served with clover honey, lavender and oat milk.

Honey House Distillery

Durango

Savor spirits made in a beehive-shaped still and feel like you’re sipping straight from the honey jar. Award-winning faves include Cinnamon Honey Whiskey and Hex Vodka.

Hunters Moon Meadery

Severance

This take on the oldest known fermented beverage features harmonious flavors like Colorado huckleberry and nectar. Try Trappers Cask, boasting notes of vanilla and oak, or Howling Moon for hints of coffee.

Slaymaker Cellars

Idaho Springs

Channel your inner King Arthur as you swig Slaymaker’s subtly floral honey wine. Ask for their award-winning Wildflower Traditional mead for whispers of fresh grass and melon.

Sample

Audrey Jane's Pizza Garage

Boulder

Revel in the Hot Honey Disco Pie — think spicy salami and Calabrian-chili honey. FUN FACT: Audrey Jane’s was featured on Food Network’s hit show “Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives.”

Peach Street Distillers 

Palisade

Dip into made-to-order guac infused with amaro honey, carrot pico de gallo and a bevy of chopped herbs. Take a tour of Peach Street’s production facility (be sure to call ahead for the weekly tour schedule).

The Windsor Hotel's Dining Room 

Del Norte

Pre-game dinner with a deluxe snacking plate piled high with locally cured meats and buttery cheeses. The best part? It’s all topped with golden goodness straight from nearby Haefeli’s Honey Farm.

Hovey & Harrison

Edwards

Revive your worker-bee energy with Greek yogurt drenched in fresh fruit, bee pollen, crunchy granola and Colorado-wildflower honey. 

See For Yourself

Devil's Thumb Ranch

Tabernash

Don a stylish protective suit and tour the ranch’s bee colony, with more than a million buzzing critters producing 1,200 pounds of pure Colorado honey. Sample summer’s sweet taste, then bring it home with a piece of honeycomb.

Hudson Gardens

Littleton

Find your calling with a Meet the Beekeeper class. Learn the art-of-beekeeping foundations and real-life management techniques with a beautiful 30-acre public park as the backdrop.

Fort Collins Museum of Discovery

Fort Collins

Check out the museum’s colony doing its bee thang in the Animal Encounters exhibit. You’ll learn all about our buzzy insect friends, and you just might spot a bee doing a waggle dance to tell others where the good nectar is.

Honeyville

Durango

See Honeyville’s queen bee in a glass beehive, watch golden Colorado honey being bottled, and head to the tasting counters to sample all manner of pollen-y products like spreadable honey, sauces and wines.
