About Dry Dock Brewing Company

Dry Dock Brewing Company is a speakeasy that hasn’t stopped growing. The brewery was Aurora, Colorado’s first when owners Kevin DeLange and Michelle Reding opened with a 7 BBL brewhouse in a 900-square-foot space next their original business The Brew Hut, a homebrew supply shop, in 2005. They named the brewery as a nod to Kevin’s love of nautical history. Dry Dock established itself early on by word-of-mouth, and put itself on the map when it won a gold 2006 World Beer Cup (only 6 months after the tiny brewery opened) for its HMS Victory ESB (now Dry Dock’s Amber Ale). Dry Dock has since been the recipient of 20 GABF® medals, the prestigious Brewers Association’s Small Brewery of the Year award, and five World Beer Cup® awards. Check out the Dry Dock News page to see what the brewery is up to today.
