This week on Denverite Now

1) Stephanie Snyder introduces the newest iteration of Denverite’s Readers’ Choice project and puts the call out to you, the listeners, for possible future topics. Denverite has been running the program in some form for almost a year, so a lot of reader questions have been answered already:

And here's the story Stephanie mentioned about horse ties in Capitol Hill:

2) Adrian D. Garcia talks through a few recent developments within the local craft beer community, including a new Brewers Association seal for craft breweries to distinguish their products from megabrews. Here’s his coverage of the seal:

And here’s a selection of his reports about last year’s schism within the Colorado Brewers Guild:

3) Christian Clark breaks down the Denver Nuggets and Colorado Avalanche’s off-season moves. Here’s a selection of his relevant reports:

4) Andy Kenney discusses two recent Colorado-related moves at the U.S. Supreme Court: one dealing with same-sex discrimination and the pastry arts and the other with public funding of religious schools. Also, we get a sense of how Colorado’s own Justice Neil Gorsuch is fitting into these discussions. Andy’s reports on the two cases are here:
