Our Story

A kitchen rooted
in the foothills

High Altitude Hops began as a home kitchen experiment — a fascination with how altitude changes fermentation, how whole grains behave differently at 5,000 feet, and how patience transforms simple ingredients into something worth waiting for.

Today we operate from our kitchen on East Estates Circle in Larkspur, baking small batches daily and sourcing from Colorado farms and mills. Everything we make is from scratch — no shortcuts, no preservatives, no compromises on technique.

What We Make

From our kitchen to your table

Every item is produced in small daily batches. What you see is what we have — and it changes with the season.

Sourdough Bread

48-hour fermented loaves — country, olive, seeded, and rye. Our starter has been alive since day one, and you can taste the depth in every slice.

Daily bake · Limited quantities

Pastries & Viennoiserie

Butter croissants, pain au chocolat, cinnamon rolls, and seasonal fruit tarts — laminated by hand each morning before dawn.

Mornings only · Until sold out

Pantry Staples

Small-batch jams, house-made granola, roasted nuts, imported olive oils, and artisan cheeses — curated from Colorado producers and trusted importers.

Rotating selection

Custom Orders

Wedding cakes, holiday platters, corporate catering, and special dietary requests — we bake for milestones and everyday moments alike.

Weekly Specials

Seasonal rotations keep things interesting — think rosemary focaccia in autumn, citrus pound cake in spring, and spiced loaves through winter.

Our Philosophy

The ingredients speak for themselves

Whole grains, nothing refined

We mill our own flour blends and source stone-ground grains from Colorado mills. No bleached flour, no chemical conditioners — just pure grain flavor developed through slow fermentation.

Altitude-adapted recipes

Baking at 5,000 feet means lower atmospheric pressure changes how dough rises and how moisture evaporates. Our recipes are calibrated for this — not copied from sea-level manuals.

Seasonal & local first

We partner with nearby farms for dairy, eggs, and produce. When the season changes, our menu changes with it. That is how it should be.
