From Denver to Steamboat Springs: Grand Opening of Mythology Distillery

After three years of working to move the Mythology Distillery from Denver to its new home in Steamboat Springs, owner Scott Yeates is ready to throw a party.

“Since last fall, 100% of all our products are produced here and distributed out of here,” Yeates said. “Then this winter, we opened the cocktail bar, we started a tour program and offered different classes and experiences. We had a limited kitchen menu and we were not ready to open the whiskey garden, so that’s the reason for the grand opening. This is the first time the full campus is open.”

Getting to this point has been a more than two-year journey for the award-winning craft distillery that was founded in Denver by Yeates, Scott Burg and Mike Zakhem in 2018. The distillery specializes in crafting unique whiskey blends and distilling layered gins, vodka and other specialty spirits in small batches using the freshest ingredients. Yeates said the business was built on a passion to bring people together to share stories while enjoying whiskey and gin cocktails.
