In this four-part series, The Denver Post investigated why so many Coloradans are dying from drinking, and what the state could do to reduce the number of people lost.
A pedestrian walks past advertisements for beer at a liquor store along East Colfax Avenue in Denver on Jan. 3, 2024.
Deaths from drinking shot up since 2018, but during that time, Colorado didn’t take steps designed to change that trajectory, like raising alcohol taxes. The only major changes in liquor laws during that time expanded where residents could buy alcohol.

Legislators haven’t seriously considered measures to discourage drinking, and voters expanded access to alcohol in grocery stores.
