Oh, who cares ... we'll be taste-testing a whole LOT 'O BEER and listening to some great live bands today - my birthday - at the 21st annual Colorado Brewers' Festival in downtown Fort Collins, Colorado, June 26 and 27, Saturday and Sunday.
I waited to post this until after I made sure we got tickets ... there are a limited number of entry tickets. Buy them online here.
Savor the sip ... and celebrate one little beer at a time ... the man said.
Over 50 Colorado beers, 30 breweries and 300 kegs will be featured, including my fav - New Belgium Brewing Company in Fort Collins. The event takes place at Civic Center Park, just off College Avenue at the north end of the downtown business district. Here's a map.
The Colorado Brewers' Fest is made up solely of Colorado Breweries, including host breweries from Fort Collins: Anheuser-Busch, Big Horn Brewery/CB & Potts, Coopersmith's Pub & Brewing, New Belgium Brewing Company, Fort Collins Brewery, and Odell Brewing Company.
There will be three tasting sessions:
Saturday Session #1 runs from 12:00 noon to 3 p.m. (entry begins at 11 a.m.)
Saturday Session #2 runs 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. (entry begins at 11 a.m.)
Sunday Session 12:00 noon to 4 p.m. (entry begins at 11 a.m.)
Advance tickets are $25; day of event $35 and non-drinker is $10.

Oooooo ... ahhhhh ... mmmmm ... We can finally try out the new Colorado Native brew by Coors :P I see Left Hand Brewing Company will be serving 400 lb. Monkey IPA and Oskar Blues will feature Mama's Little Yella Pils.
Hmm ... Blueberry Wheat by Durango Brewing Company ... gotta try that one, fer sure!
