"Colorado Springs' first hometown brewery" is kind of a neat place, with lots of breweriana on the walls. Too bad more hotel bars aren't like this one. The beers could stand some improvement, although the Nut Brown was pretty tasty.

Directions: Walk out of Phantom Canyon and go into the big Antlers Doubletree Hotel across the street. Judge Baldwin's is on the first floor, near the south end.

My Opinion Of The Beers That I've Tried:
12.5 points overall

Amber Ale
Style 4 - Mild / Brown Ale
- 10 points - Beer #7-474, at the brewery, October 21, 1994
  A shade darker than Pale Ale. Looks flat. Some malty aroma, not real assertive. Not much flavor or body. Some hops...very inoffensive.
Nut Brown
Style 4 - Mild / Brown Ale
- 15 points - Beer #7-476, at the brewery, October 21, 1994
  Deep red-brown, good head. Slightly smoky nose. Sweet. Some black/brown malts. Hops balanced well. Sharp carbonation bite.
Pale Ale
Style 6 - American-style Pale Ale
- 12 points - Beer #7-475, at the brewery, October 21, 1994
  Golden-amber, good carbonation, no head. Nutty aroma, like the Wheat Ale. Nutty flavor. Completely hides the hops.
Raspberry Ale
Style 21 - Fruit / Vegetable Beer
- 11 points - Beer #7-477, at the brewery, October 21, 1994
  Golden. Very high carbonation. Good head. Hi-C. Hi-C.
Wheat Ale
Style 6 - American-style Pale Ale
- 14 points - Beer #7-471, at the brewery, October 21, 1994
  Golden, good carbonation. Nutty-sweet aroma. Nutty flavor...Munich malt? Some wheat sweetness, but not a lot.
