Craft beer tasting at the base of Peak 9
Raise a glass at a high-altitude craft beer festival with pours from breweries near and far, plus food vendors and laid-back live entertainment.
Event details
July 11, 2026 brings craft breweries to Beaver Run Resort & Conference Center for an afternoon of high-altitude tastings, live music, and food pairings. This single-day event typically runs 1-5 p.m., with unlimited samples from Colorado breweries and a few national guests. General admission tickets hover around $40-50, VIP closer to $75 with early entry and specialty pours.
The venue sits at the base of Peak 9, so you’re steps from The Village after the festival wraps. Afternoon thunderstorms are common in July, so grab a spot under the tent areas early and bring a light rain jacket. If you’re planning to sample seriously, designate a driver or book a rental within walking distance—many Lake.com properties in the Beaver Run area keep you close without needing to move your car.
Pair the festival with a morning paddle on Maggie Pond or a Blue River float for a full mountain-town Saturday. Hydrate early and often—altitude amplifies alcohol, and you’ll feel it faster at 9,600 feet than at sea level.
