Lushes and lawyers, hippies and hobos, Case served them all at this East Colfax staple for a decade.
On East Colfax, it’s not terribly unusual to see grown men crying in the middle of the afternoon. But this week, the grown men crying at Nob Hill Inn are sober. Some may have done a little time back in the day. Some definitely could — and would — kick your ass, should your ass be in need of kicking.
At a time when the surgeon general warns about the dangers of isolation, the Nob is as much a community as the congregation meeting across the street at the Cathedral Basilica of the Immaculate Conception. Like a church family, the bar forges friendships and fosters petty feuds. It has patrons who appear only for high holidays like the Super Bowl, as well as penitents who partake of draft beer communion on a daily basis.
Zach Lamb recalls Case’s ability to curate a playlist on the bar’s legendary jukebox. “I played a Temptations song one time ten years ago,” he says. “Whenever I came in, there was a proper lineup of Motown bangers waiting for me as soon as I got another shot.” Although a lifelong Denver resident, Case's admiration for Red Wings hockey great Gordie Howe and Lions running back Barry Sanders kept him rooting for Detroit. He was also known for his generosity, thoughtful gifts, elaborate LEGO builds and colorful shirt collection, many of which were thrifted from local stores.
