Natural Grocers Expands Cottage Craft Beer to Denver’s Green Valley Ranch Store

Natural Grocers, the nation’s largest family-operated natural and organic grocery retailer, is introducing its Cottage Craft Beer shop to Denver’s booming Green Valley Ranch neighborhood. Customers of the newest Colorado store can now enjoy a top-shelf selection of craft beer, hard kombucha and seltzer which have been vetted to meet the same rigorous, high-quality standards that all products must satisfy in order to be sold at Natural Grocers. In celebration of this customer-favorite expansion, Green Valley Ranch shoppers will enjoy a 25 percent storewide discount between Oct. 26 and Nov. 1, 2020.

• Certified Organic: Cottage Craft Beer prioritizes organic certification across all beverage categories, curating the largest organic selection possible. Natural Grocers works with producers who share its commitment to self-sustaining and regenerative agriculture and its benefits—soil health, biodiversity and improving the environment.
• Gluten-Free: The shop offers a comprehensive inventory of gluten-free and gluten-reduced beer, as well as gluten-free alcoholic kombucha and seltzers.
• Local: Natural Grocers sources high-quality craft beer, brewed with homegrown ingredients. Most of the inventory comes from local breweries—hyper-local whenever possible but usually from within the state or region.
• Nutritional Value: Craft beer, brewed with pure ingredients and processes, offers some nutritional value, including B vitamins and bone-supporting nutrients like silicon.
• Out With The Bad, In With The Good: All seltzer and kombucha selections are GMO free and all craft beers are conscientiously brewed using high-quality ingredients.

Customers looking for 100 percent organic wines and biodynamic wines, can visit Natural Grocers’ RiNo store, located at 3757 North Brighton Blvd Denver, CO.
