Breckenridge Brewery Says Goodbye To Ball Arena Restaurant And Hello To A New Nuggets Beer

The reigning NBA Championship-winning Denver Nuggets are dribbling toward another playoff run. Now that calls for a toast, and Breckenridge Brewery has just the beer. This week, the brewery announced a limited-edition release called the Championship Edition Mile High City Golden Ale, “an easy-drinking, light ale,” according to a statement. The can features a rainbow-colored Denver skyline against a mountainscape as a nod to the Nuggets’ hometown and city pride, as well as a logo noting the team’s 2023 NBA Championship. The beer has been available at Ball Arena in 19.2-ounce tall boys for a couple of months; it’s also now available in retail stores in 12-ounce cans, including in 15-packs.

That’s why fans who visit Ball Arena may notice a major change to the name of the enormous restaurant at the base of the arena.
