Since moving to Cheyenne, Wyoming, in 2022, we've been steadily making our way through a list of local experiences we want to have while we're in the area. Recently we were finally able to cross the Coors Brewery Tour off the list. It's been almost 20 years since I toured the brewery, and Heather had …
