Westbound & Down Brewing has laid out a new roadmap for Colorado craft breweries over the past few years, and it will follow the directions on that map even further west beginning today.The company has just purchased two other Colorado beer makers: Aspen Brewing, with its brand-new, 7,000-barrel-capacity production facility near the Pitkin County Airport; and Capitol Creek Brewery in Basalt, according to a statement released Friday afternoon.
