Get thirsty with Alysia Staxxx at Denver's legendary country-western dance bar, where the energy is high and the drinks are flowing with 2-4-1 specials all night long.

Whether you're a line-dancing regular or hitting the dance floor for the first time, Thirst Trap brings together the best of Charlie's mixed crowd—bears, drag performers, bikers, and country fans—under that famous cowboy-boot disco ball.
