Mad Jack's Mountain Brewery

What says "Colorado" more than a family-run brewery in a small mountain town?

Mad Jack's Mountain Brewery opened in April 2016 in Bailey, Colorado. The unique establishment is located at 23 Main Street in Bailey. Call Jack and Allison Hansell, owners, at 303-816-2337 for more information; or visit their website by clicking here.

We're very proud to welcome Mad Jack's Mountain Brewery to the Colorado Caliber family. We have partnered with Jack and Allison on a custom Colorado Caliber design for their t-shirts, hoodies, long-sleeved t-shirts, and women's v-neck t-shirts.

Here's the Mad Jack's design:


You'll find a beer for every taste at Mad Jack's. Food trucks rotate throughout the week to provide unique cuisine.

Three years in Germany inspired Jack and Allison to open Mad Jack's. They ate and drank their way across Germany during their three-year stay there; and were inspired by the German beers and beer gardens.

They've developed recipes over the years that will delight discerning beer drinkers from Denver and other Front Range communities - as well as the wealth of tourists that travel the US Highway 285 corridor every year.

Jack and Allison have been married for 33 years and have three sons - Nathan, Nolan, and Nick; along with daughter-in-law Lauren and grandson Wesley. Jack recently retired from Molson Coors.

During his 15 years of service at Coors, Jack learned a great deal about the beer industry both domestically and internationally. He held key positions in manufacturing, quality, distribution, packaging, and supply chain.

In 1990, Jack started home brewing and has been learning the craft ever since, with many successful brews. During his tenure with Molson Coors, he had the privilege of becoming certified in brewing and packaging through the Coors Brewery Institute and the International Brewers and Distillers Guild.

Jack holds a BS in mechanical engineering from Rutgers University. He is a veteran of the US Army, having served 11 years as a Combat Engineer Officer.

Allison has held numerous Director level positions with local non-profit organizations such as March of Dimes, American Red Cross, and United Way. Additionally, she has served as an office manager for various doctors and lawyers.

The Hansells' three sons have a broad level of experience in the beer business as well. Nolan is currently a route salesman with a local distributor. Nathan has worked in operations for three distributors in Texas, Colorado, and Montana. He is an avid home brewer and blogs about beers. Nick has been learning the home brewing process for several years and is currently pursuing his degree at University of Colorado in Colorado Springs.
