The Skyline Beer Garden serves a selection of 12 different brews on tap and features close to 40,000 square feet of outdoor with open air and tented seating. The Garden offers a fun and comfortable environment with ping pong, mini golf, corn hole, and live music on Fridays and Saturdays. The Mile High Bicycle Loop is a visionary project that will transform how the public right-of-way is used in Downtown Denver by linking neighborhoods through the great urban outdoors. The Loop is currently in its design phase.”
