Want to go to Boulder Beer's 30th birthday party? Tickets are still available

Remember when we used to call them micro breweries. Well, they used to be…well, micro. These days, many of them have outgrown their tiny, little brewery status.

Tomorrow night Colorado's first craft brewery, Boulder Beer, celebrates its 30th birthday and you are invited. The Throw Down bash takes place at the historic Boulder Theater on 14th & Pearl. There will be live music by Great American Taxi featuring Vince Herman from Leftover Salmon, and Oakhurst. They will have crazy prize drawings (you can win BEER FOR A YEAR!), beer celebrations, and of course, pints of Boulder Beer for only $2.50. Tickets are still available and you gotta get them on the Boulder Theater website or at their ticket office. http://www.bouldertheater.com/

****ON TAP****

Ft. Collins Brewery releases their Oatmean Raisin Stout today. It is a benevolient brew. According to the label, "this style of stout, developed in honor of brewer & Colorado State University Alumnus Matt Wensman and all proceeds from sales are being donated to the Department of Food Science and Human Nutrition, CSU, to be used in teaching the FTEC 460 Brewing Science and Technology course.” It's on tap at the brewery in Ft. Collins. They will also bottle it and sell it by the 6 pack. http://www.fortcollinsbrewery.com/

Left Hand Brewing is doing another beer tasting. This one is at Proto’s Pizza, in North Boulder, from 6-8p. http://www.lefthandbrewing.com/

Hungry? It's beer dinner season. The Avery Brewing/Le Central Restaurant beer dinner is tonight. http://www.averybrewing.com/

It's Great Divide Brewing night at City, O' City. http://www.greatdivide.com/

And, get set, because tomorrow is the beginning of the Denver Beer Fest. It is a celebration of all things beer, wrapped around next week's Great American Beer Festival. I'll post a lot of cool things each day so you can get your fill of this foamy fest that turns all of Denver into a large college keg party. Party on, dude!
