Rock Bottom Breweries across the nation have been brewing a 'dedicated' ale for over 20 years, raising funds to help local fire-related charities. Loveland's is no exception.

Rock Bottom got is start in 1991 in Downtown Denver, Colorado, at the bottom of the Prudential building. Prudential was known as 'The Rock,' so this new brewery named itself, Rock Bottom. There are almost 20 across the nation now, including the one at The Promenade Shops at Centerra.

A portion of sales of "Fire Chief" until the supply runs out, will go directly towards the program which, among other events, puts on a weeklong camp in Estes Park each year. The camp costs over $1,600 per camper, but through fundraising efforts such as Loveland's Rock Bottom 'Fire Chief Ale,' the kids can participate in the lief-changing event for free.

The fundraising begins with the tapping of "Fire Chief" on "Fat Tuesday," February 21, 2023. That evening, beginning at 6 p.m., everyone who would like one will get a free 10 oz. glass of "The Chief," as firefighters from the local fire departments will be on hand taking donations throughout the night.

I've been a fan of Rock Bottom in Loveland since they've opened. This is one of those things that they do that keeps me as a fan.

To dine at this restaurant has to be quite the experience. The atmosphere is great, the food is delicious, and the the 'old fire house' is 140 years old.
