Bootstrap’s Longmont taproom is where the magic started, and it’s still the heart of our operation. This is where small-town soul meets full-volume fun. Locals and out-of-towners come to kick back with a pint, enjoy live music, and catch up over tacos or trivia night.
No gimmicks. No fluff. Just a laid-back place to drink damn good beer with damn good people, and energy you can’t bottle.
Overflow parking is available on Pratt Street (north of our building) and 2nd Avenue (west of our building).
(Click on an event to get more details!)
You’ll find our full lineup here: Insane Rush, Lush Puppy, Boat Snack, Chillax, Wreak Havoc, and more. We also offer special releases you won’t find anywhere else! Rotating taps keep things interesting, and if you’re indecisive, our beertenders are happy to guide you or build you a flight.
Live music every weekend
Sunday Uke Jam – play along, learn to uke, or sit back and listen!
Rotating food trucks serving everything from tacos to fusion
Community events and even the occasional dog adoption pop-up
Every Sunday afternoon the taproom fills with the sound of ukuleles, kazoos and a whole lot of smiling faces. Whether you’re a seasoned strummer or you’ve never held a uke, you’re invited.
We’re family-friendly and dog-friendly on the patio. Leashes are required and barky pups should stay home. (Three barks and you’re out.)
Got a celebration coming up?
Yes, we host events. Reach out to lock in your date.
Got a set list that’ll shake the walls or a menu that pairs perfectly with a fresh pint? We’re always looking for high‑energy bands and mouth‑watering food trucks to keep the taproom buzzing. If you can get a crowd moving, or drooling, let’s talk!
We host live music every Friday and Saturday from 6 to 9PM. The taproom stays packed and ready to move.
You’re welcome to plug into our house rig – five Mackie SRM500 speakers (two wall‑mounted mains and three floor wedges), an SRM1850 sub, and a Soundcraft Ui16 iPad‑controlled mixer—or haul in your own gear if that’s more your style.
Ready to crank it up or roll your food truck into the spotlight?
Not directly. Your favorite liquor store can order a ½ or 1/6 BBL Bootstrap keg with a little notice. Use our Beer Finder for help.
With a heads-up, yes. Ask at the bar for spontaneous tours. If we have the staff, we’ll make it happen.
No, but our calendar is full of food truck appearances. You won’t leave hungry.
Yes, on the patio, as long as they’re leashed and well-behaved. Barky pups should stay home.
Absolutely. We’re a family-friendly taproom.
Overflow parking is available on Pratt Street (north of our building) and 2nd Avenue (west of our building).
Yes. Ask your beertender for the password.
We do. Pick one up in any amount right at the bar.
We have Guiness 0.0, Izze sparkling drinks, a variety of sodas, tomato juice, and chilled water from our drinking fountain.
No. Our license only allows us to serve our own beer. No outside alcohol is permitted on the premises.
Whether you’re a regular or it’s your first time, we can’t wait to pour you a pint and welcome you into the Bootstrap crew. This is where beer meets music meets community, and you’re officially invited.
