Our Story
Already a Longmont staple, HMLS’s 43 rotating taps offer an ample selection of American craft beers from coast to coast, poured alongside our creative Americana-style menu, and served up with a side of local and nationally renowned musicians. #OBHMLS
After 12 years of testing & perfecting our original Lyons location, we decided it was time to expand the Oskar Blues restaurant experience to our neighbors in Longmont, CO. In October 2009, we opened the doors to Homemade Liquids and Solids (HMLS) – home of the colossal Oskar Blues can and one of the best patios in town!
CRAFT BEER: If you’re a beer lover, this is the place for you! Our bar has 43 rotating taps pouring the best in American craft beer from coast to coast. Not only do we maintain a wonderful variety of Oskar Blues core & seasonal beers, but we also play host to a wide variety of craft breweries near and far, old and new, small and large. This inclusivity is important to our brand since it allows us to build great relationships with other craft brewers and offer an exceptional assortment of beers that can’t be found at any old neighborhood bar.
FRESH INGREDIENTS: Our name says it all: our sauces, dressings, sides, and entrees are all homemade-from-scratch using fresh, local ingredients. Staying true to our roots, we brought our favorite Cajun and Creole dishes from the Grill & Brew and then added in other Americana favorites like BBQ, pizza, and burgers. Our expansive menu features family-sized portions of smoked pork, brisket, ribs and wings, mouth-watering burgers made from Colorado Proud locally sourced and spent grain-fed beef, fresh salads and sandwiches, and more appetizers than you can shake a stick at! With such a tasty selection of entrees, unique lunch items and an amazing Happy Hour, there’s undoubtedly something for everyone!
LIVE MUSIC: But wait, there’s more! You don’t think we’d forget the tuneage, did you?! Just like in Lyons, HMLS regularly hosts local and nationally-touring acts bringin’ everything from blues, folk, rock, and Americana to funk, bluegrass, roots, and country. Join us Thursday night from 5:30-8:30pm for smooth sounds in the dining room, Friday & Saturday nights from 8:30-11:30pm for jammin’ bands on our upstairs stage, and Sundays from 6-9pm for an end-of-the-weekend wind-down
FAMILY & FRIENDS: We started in a small town near to our hearts and our local roots run deep. Above all else, nurturing our relationships with our nearby family and friends is a top priority for us. That’s why we want everyone that walks into HMLS – first-time guests and regulars alike – to feel right at home among good company. Grab a seat, talk to your neighbors and make yourself comfortable. We appreciate your support of local business and hope to see you back soon!
#GETINHERE and get yer brew, grub & music fix all under one roof! #OBHMLS
