| - I have been going here for ages. Anyone remember the days of "seat yourself free-for-all?"
But I went here on Friday, Oct. 26 with some friends from CO and was disappointed. For the first time.
The server did her best as the place was packed (as usual) for a Friday lunch. But it took forever to get the Peach ale as she said they were tapping a new keg, and when we did receive it, the beer tasted flat and lacked the refreshing peach taste that normally accompanies this ale. It was the Peach ale, it was just not as good as previous visits. Maybe new keg? I don't know. One of my CO friends had been to 4Peaks before and said the same thing about this particular batch.
Then my friends ordered the Tap Room Tenderloin- both without onions. They both came with onions. And my favorite thing on the menu- the Portabella Beer Bread had been dramatically altered. Instead of the sauteed onions, mushrooms and tomatoes that used to be in the beer bread, it was carrots and broccoli. I love both of those veggies, but not in this sandwich/wrap. It added a different taste & a crunch (both veggies were in thick, whole pieces) that was not tasty. I didn't even finish it- 1st time that's ever happened.
I'm sorry Four Peaks, I love you but you're slipping. When there are so many other brewpubs & restaurants serving craft beer, I'm baffled as to why you would change anything. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. But I guess you haven't heard that.
