Lunch before tour at Avery?

Lets try the tour on Wednesday. I expect we won't get in every tour we try due to the crowds. lets just come up with an alternate plan. I know 3:30pm might be late for a long hike, but we can get out somewhere. The Stanley? Pike's Peak? Red Rocks? Mt. Doom?

Beer is good. I like beer but I would love to see some of the Rocky Mountains. Why can't we get up super-duper early Weds morning and get on a trail at or soon after sunrise (about 7:00am on Oct 8 ): http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/as…

Tasting Room hours are: Wednesday, Thursday and Friday 3:30 to 8:00 PM with tours at 3:00 PM sharp. Saturdays 12:30 - 5:00 PM with a tour at noon. First 5 tasters are free, customers can purchase additional tasters or pints if they so choose.
