GABF 2024 – Exclusive Events, Spooky Vibes, and Rare Beer Releases at River North!

Hey beer lovers, it’s that time of year again—Great American Beer Festival is right around the corner, and we couldn’t be more excited to celebrate with all of you! If you’ve been to GABF before, you know it’s the nation’s premier beer event and this year, we’re bringing our A-game with exclusive beers, spooky vibes, and some killer events at both taprooms all week long.


What’s Brewing at GABF?

We’re setting up shop all weekend with a double booth in the "Fright" section (yep, it’s going to be spooky and awesome!). And we’ve got some of our most sought-after beers coming with us, including five brews from our Vicennial series and our ultimate scare-inducing imperial stout, Nightmare Fuel (which, by the way, won Best Coffee Stout in the World at the World Beer Cup!).


For the first time EVER, you’ll get to try these brews outside our taproom. We’re talking ultra-rare gems like Barrel Aged Shadowman, Barrel Aged God Complex, and Barrel Aged Father Time—seriously, you don’t want to miss this!


Join Us for GABF Week at River North Brewery:

We’re not just keeping the party at GABF; we’ve got a full week of fun happening at both of our taprooms. Here’s a sneak peek at what’s going down:


October 9th – GABF Kickoff Party at Blake Street Taproom

Kick off GABF week with us at our Blake Street Taproom starting at 3 PM, featuring Moya’s Tacos (tacos + beer = perfection, right?). Come hang out, grab some food, and get ready for the festival madness!


October 10th – Early Opening + Rare Beer Tasting

We’re opening our Blake Street Taproom early at NOON to help you gear up for the day! Plus, we’ll be pouring some of our rarest beers at the Denver Rare Beer Tasting at Bierstadt Lagerhaus that afternoon before GABF. You won’t want to miss these exclusive pours.

October 11th – Fright Night & Barrel Aged Nightmare Fuel Release

Get ready for a spooky, beer-filled night! It’s Fright Night at both taprooms, and we’re releasing the long-awaited Barrel Aged Nightmare Fuel, a coffee stout that’s as bold as it is delicious. The first 100 people to order a full pour will even get a free surprise gift—a little something to remember the night by! Hot Box Deli Den will be at our Blake Street Taproom and Mi Familia Authentic Mexican Food will be serving up tasty eats at our Washington Street location.


October 12th – GABF Awards Watch Party Brunch with Moya's Tacos

We’re opening EARLY at 10 AM for a brunch watch party at Blake Street Taproom! Join us for breakfast tacos from Moya’s Tacos (because beer + brunch = the best way to start the day) and watch the GABF awards ceremony with us. Plus, we’ll have competition flights of our best beers for you to enjoy.
