Friends, trivia enthusiasts, and local beer lovers have come together to prevent the cherished Fiction Beer Company in Denver’s Park Hill neighborhood from closing its doors. With the founders announcing their departure, a group of dedicated regulars decided it was time to take matters into their own hands—and they succeeded.
A tale of community and camaraderie unfolds at a popular neighborhood spot
Have you ever imagined stepping in to save your favorite hangout? For seven loyal customers, that question became reality when they learned that their go-to trivia venue was about to shut down. They had grown accustomed to weekly meetups at Fiction Beer Company, located at 7101 East Colfax Avenue, where they shared laughs, local brews, and an escape from daily routines.
The founders, Ryan and Christa, initially announced they were ready to move on, leaving the beloved brewery in limbo. Among the patrons, there was a buzz of concern—where would trivia night go? Who else would welcome them for a pint after a long day? That’s when one regular, named Ted, asked his fellow trivia hosts, “Should we buy this brewery?” A few emails later, the idea went from offbeat dream to tangible plan as one by one, friends agreed to pool their resources and save the establishment.

- Continued trivia nights – Expect the same lively competition and friendly banter.
