Black Sky Brewery

In September 2013, Harry Smith, a longtime brewer at Breckenridge Brewery, opened Black Sky Brewery, just a block from his old employer and with Breckenridge's full support. Black Sky, which dishes up Connecticut-style pizza along with its beer, was a long time in the making. As noted on its website, the brewery's 23 taps feature both "in-house and guest brews." There's also a heavy-metal theme to the decor and the beer names. The brewery itself has a seven-barrel brewing system that contains old pieces of equipment from Breckenridge; outside, you'll find a patio, a parking lot and a mural.
