Reserve Your Colorado Active Beer Tour Now
Are you one of those craft beer lovers that also lives an active, outdoor lifestyle? Our friend Dean over at Adventures with Friends would like to present the ideal tour that brings both of those things together during GABF Weekend in beautiful Colorado. Spaces are very limited, so we encourage you to get in on this now. Cheers
After traveling abroad and leading many tours to other states and countries, I’m reminded daily why I enjoy returning to Colorado after every trip.
The combination of over 300 sunny days, stunning hiking trails, ribbons of single track mountain biking and plenty of skiing to challenge the inner soul. Just a few reasons why this outdoor environment is second to none, and why I’ve called this place ‘home’ for over 20 years.
In addition to all of Colorado’s natural beauty is the organic proliferation of high-quality, award-winning microbreweries. In fact, some experts have dubbed this region of Colorado “The Napa Valley of Beer”.
We’ve combined the creative, culinary delights of local restaurants with award-winning beers, included in chocolate (yes, chocolate!) and added the Adventure With Friends’ one-of-a kind tour design sauce to create our newest adventure travel offering: Active Colorado Beer Tours.
We are thrilled to offer a unique experience in the height of Colorado fall season, with an educational twist to develop your palate and hob nob with Colorado microbrew culture.
Here are the highlights to wet your appetite!
Thursday, October 2:
Check into the Hotel Boulderado and relax for the afternoon before joining Jeff Mendel, an 27-year veteran of the microbrew industry in a privately-guided experience on the opening night of the 2014 Great American Beer Festival (all tickets are sold out we have the last 12 tickets reserved for our tour).
We’ll kickoff the opening night Great American Beer Festival kickoff by tasting the beer/food pairings of 14 brewery-chef teams at the Farm to Table Pavilion and savoring a special beer and chocolate tasting session with renowned Boulder Chocolatier, Sarah Amorese.
This exclusive experience is limited to us only and is the only tour of its kind at the Great American Beer Festival, the premier North American festival for microbrews.
Friday, October 3:
Hiking beyond the Flatirons of Boulder in the morning, we earn our rewards later in the day with a beer/food pairing followed by dinner prepared using local ingredients.
Saturday, October 4:
This morning we ride mountain bikes near the Rocky Mountain vistas of Boulder, then take a break in the early afternoon to prepare for our microbrewery tour and beer/food tasting. Dinner will follow at a farm-to-table centric restaurant.
Sunday, October 5:
Scale the boulders near Boulder with experienced rock climbing guides or enjoy a spa day retreat in the morning.
Use the early afternoon to explore the various shops (yes, that includes the marijuana retailers as well) of Boulder in preparation for our third beer/food pairing followed by dinner.
Monday, October 6:
Enjoy a leisurely morning at the Hotel Boulderado before departing for home.
