Colorado is to craft beer what mountains are to snow. And with over 400 craft breweries across the state, Colorado is the apex of ales – and lagers and stouts – with a heritage as rich as the gold rush. In fact, in 1859, Rocky Mountain Brewing became the first in the state to satiate thirsty miners from Silver Plume to Idaho Springs to Denver and beyond. Today, Colorado touts the fourth most breweries per capita in the United States, and has played host to the Great American Beer Festival (GABF) since 1982, a competition that is the gold standard for brewing success in the U.S. What is it that makes Colorado’s breweries so special? Take to the mountains to find out.

The Market Effect of the Pandemic on Colorado’s Mountain Towns
By Ingrid Palmer

L

ast spring, as the pandemic shuttered offices and altered life for everyone, real estate brokers across the mountain region braced for what they thought would be the worst market in years. Instead, with the increase in remote work opportunities and a new appreciation for pursuing a purposeful life, people who were already enamored with the idea of living in the mountains found 2020 the perfect time to realize that dream. They flocked to Colorado’s resort communities and made it the highest-grossing sales year in decades.

Despite the unpredictability and chaos of the last 15 months, resort towns across the state—from Telluride and Crested Butte to Vail, Breckenridge, and Winter Park—experienced a sharp rise in consumers looking to purchase their own slice of paradise. Even in the shoulder seasons of fall and spring, when the real estate market typically slows, the industry has prospered. Heading into the peak summer months of 2021, experts predict the numbers will continue to climb.

“I call it the Covid Effect,” said Aaron Shriner, VP and Managing Broker for LIV Sotheby’s International Realty’s Summit and Grand County offices.

How to Incorporate Pantone’s Color of the Year
By Amy Puchaty

This year’s Pantone Color of the Year is taking the design world by storm, with not one, but two distinct hues that are sure to elevate your mood. Enter, PANTONE 17-5104 Ultimate Gray, a calming neutral, and PANTONE 13-0647 Illuminating, a vibrant yellow.

Design That Makes a Statement: How to Incorporate Pantone’s Color of the Year

Selecting the color each year is no simple matter. According to Pantone, “The Pantone Color of the Year selection process requires thoughtful consideration and trend analysis. To arrive at the selection each year, Pantone’s color experts at Pantone Color Institute comb the world looking for new color influences. This can include the entertainment industry and films in production, traveling art collections and new artists, fashion, all areas of design, popular travel destinations, as well as new lifestyles, playstyles, and socio-economic conditions. Influences may also stem from new technologies, materials, textures, and effects that impact color, relevant social media platforms and even upcoming sporting events that capture worldwide attention.”

Boasting a unique balance of city life, close-knit communities, and unbeatable access to nature, our state offers a lifestyle that has attracted people from across the country and around the world.
