Great American Beer Festival
Denver, Colorado
We might not have the real Oktoberfest here in the states, but we do have the Great American Beer Festival. This annual event, held at the Colorado Convention Center in Denver, brings together the best breweries and beer lovers from all across the country for a hop-infused three-day extravaganza. This year's event, scheduled for October 11-13, will play host to over 550 breweries, and will also feature a brand new Brewpub Pavilion highlighting places where fresh beer and tasty food come together in an inviting atmosphere. Each day's public session starts at 5:30 p.m. and runs until 10, but be sure to get your final orders in early — last pour comes 15 minutes beforehand.
