Taste of Arvada returns on Thursday, July 22 with more than 35 unique restaurants, distilleries, craft breweries, and bars that will all display their finest culinary offerings and compete for awards. Plus, this year’s Taste will feature live music, local artisans, and food trucks. To whet your appetite for Taste of Arvada 2021, we preview 6 brand new samples to try at this year’s big event!
Elevated Seltzer 
Elevated Seltzer, the first independent seltzer company, was started by two brothers with expertise in the beer and restaurant industry. Born and raised in Golden, CO, the two brothers got up to some shenanigans growing up and keep that same adventurous spirit in every sip of their signature seltzer. Using all-natural ingredients, the Wood brothers have created an Arvada gem. As if it couldn’t get in better, all of their seltzers are around 130 calories making every sip guilt-free.

AJ’s Deli and Jack’s Bar and Grill
A local favorite, Jack’s Bar and Grill has a passion for not only creating delicious food but also employing people with developmental disabilities. Recently, the owners of Jack’s Bar and Grill expanded the operation to open a new sandwich shop, AJ’s Sandwiches. They will be serving a fan favorite, Jack’s pulled pork sliders. The pork is slow roasted using Jack’s secret recipe and signature BBQ sauce. The takeaway? Not only does Jack’s serve great food, but they also support a wonderful mission.
