DENVER - Feb. 5, 2018 - More than 150 breweries will showcase their one-of-a-kind creations at Denver’s Fifth Annual Collaboration Fest. This world class festival takes place on Saturday, March 31, 2018 at the Hyatt Regency Denver (650 15th St, Denver, CO 80202).
Collaboration Fest is the original craft beer collaboration festival where brewers let their imaginations run wild. Breweries choose who they want to brew with and what style of beer they want to make; the final product is truly a unique brew that will most likely be available at the festival only.
“Brewery collaborations are a much needed and important piece of the craft brewing industry because it allows brewers to step out of their comfort zone to try something different,” said Tobias Krause of Two Parts. “It's a chance for brewers to evoke the creative side of brewing, which will only draw attention to all parties involved for nothing but the benefit of the beer being created.”
