Narrow Path Brewing Co

Narrow Path Brewing Co
106 Karl Brown Way, Loveland

Narrow Path Brewing Co opened in Loveland around Christmas 2016, and they seemed to have settled into their niche as a small brewery located right on the bike path in that suburb. Narrow Path is your “quintessential” brewery, complete with giant Jenga, lots of wooden pallets and metal decor.

They also have a large outdoor space with plenty of green area and tables. They often host food trucks outdoors and it’s great people watching. In short, this is a very solid neighborhood brewery.

Narrow Path has quietly turned into one of the best breweries in the city, and they’ve backed it up by winning medals at the US Open Beer Championship (including 4th place overall in 2020) and World Beer Cup in varied categories.

DVD Brew became the second brewery in Loveland when they opened in 2024.

Must-try beer: Cherry Tart (Fruit Beer) – It’s not difficult to find tart or sour beers these days, but Narrow Path’s is available right next to the Loveland Bike Trail. I feel like cherry isn’t utilized enough in beer, especially because it always seems to translate so well. Narrow Path is one of the city’s smaller breweries and they’ve carved out a nice niche in the suburban community.

Other great beers: Tire Patch IPA, Vanilla Cream Ale
