Triplehorn Brewing Co. has been pouring pints of their eclectic roster of brews for just over a year, but they already have a decidedly committed and enthusiastic following. Despite the brewery's less-than-conspicuous location tucked into the back corner of a ho-hum Woodinville industrial park, the "Triplehorde" has been regularly finding their way to enjoy brothers Ray and Rich Neishem's tasty beers in a curiously convivial setting. Imagine Viking-inspired quirkiness in a cozily appointed living room that happens to also be a neighborhood VFW Hall. And then add heavenly beer seemingly delivered via the Bifrost by Odin himself.

We blame the industry for this... It used to be that when we wrapped up our Weekend Picks on Friday, we could coast through the weekend. There was little need to check in for updates - things were pretty much done. But clearly all that's changed. So here's some of what's happened in the world of craft beer while you were enjoying yourselves.

Located in a historic hanger of the closed Alameda Naval Air Base, the walk up to the much anticipated Faction Brewing offers little scenery beyond deserted military buildings, a dusty dog run, and some barbed wire fencing. But walk into the 1,200-square-foot space that's destined to be Faction's taproom and beer garden, and it's a whole different world.

Highlands Ranch is a burgeoning suburban community, which has grown by leaps and bounds in the past 2 years as Denver continues to grow.
