What Is The Brew Fest?

Top microbreweries from all over the country are invited to compete for various honors in the "Best Summer Ale Brew Fest 2011."  We're very excited to continue expanding the European and Exotic beer sampling tent!

Not a professional brewer, Home-brewers are encouraged to be part of the Homebrew Competition. Contact Vicky: vicnkazi@hotmail.com

Friday features a professionally judged competition for participating brewers to showcase their seasonal summer brews while festival-goers savor the spirited results.  The main events are the Seasonal Brews Sampling on Friday from 5:30-7:30pm and the Grand Beer Tasting on Saturday from 3:00-5:00pm, creating high energy as brews flow freely and popular headliners rock Pepper Hill.

Join The Fun!

This multi-faceted festival has developed a tremendous following in just a short time.  Residents of and visitors to Aspen/Snowmass from nearby towns, the front range, Denver and surrounding states head here each June for a full and entertaining weekend.  Over 12,000 attendees are expected to come and enjoy popular music, frothy brews, and serious chili with a magnificent mountain backdrop and outdoor playground.
