From now until October 4, trips to Denver International Airport just got a whole lot more interesting—so interesting, in fact, that you might want to leave a little early for your flight out or stick around once you get there.
In celebration of the upcoming Great American Beer Festival, Denver’s airport is hosting Beer Flights at DIA, a multi-day craft beer festival that takes place in the center of the Jeppesen Terminal. Eleven Colorado craft breweries—Avery Brewing Company, Breckenridge Brewery, Bristol Brewing Company, Dry Dock Brewing Co., Great Divide Brewing Company, Left Hand Brewing Company, New Belgium Brewing Company, Odell Brewing Company, Ska Brewing Company, Pug Ryan’s Brewery Company, Telluride Brewing Company—will be pouring beer from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. each day.
DIA partnered with the Colorado Brewers Guild to select this year’s breweries, and the Beer Flights garden offers a diverse collection of [craft] brewers and beer styles that represent the entire state: large craft brewers, smaller brewers, and brew pubs,” says Laura Coale, DIA’s media relations director.
DIA Beer Flights 03Beer Flights will include eight picnic tables decorated by local artists, live music, talks by local craft brewers, and beer trivia.
