On Tap Credit Union is proud to once again sponsor the 2024 Collaboration Beer Festival put on by the Colorado Brewer’s Guild. True to our brewery heritage, it is important for us to continue to support and be a part of the incredible beer community in Colorado. This event gives us the opportunity to meet both those who brew beer and those who enjoy it. This year, Collab Fest falls on March 30th at The Westin Hotel in Westminster.
What to Expect
This year, Collab Fest will feature over 140 beers created in collaboration between 180+ breweries. This is a huge year for incredibly unique beers that you won’t be able to get anywhere else, so we suggest taking the plunge and getting your tickets sooner rather than later! Both food and non-alcoholic options are available for attendees as well.
On Tap will be hosting the lounge where attendees can sit back and relax between brews. We will have fun giveaways and games as well as our own beer collab that we created with our friends at FlyteCo Brewing.
Attendees must be 21 and up. Tickets range from $40-$85 depending on what tier of ticket you would like to buy.
‘Member the Good Ole Days
For the first time, On Tap has partnered with FlyteCo Brewing to create a one of a kind German Kölsch that we have named ‘Member the Good Ole Days in honor of our 70th anniversary. With FlyteCo Brewing's brewing mastery and On Tap Credit Union's 70 years of brewing industry support, this Kölsch is crafted for its sophisticated crisp, and clean taste. Through our collaboration, we aim to elevate the experience of enjoying a classic German Kölsch, while supporting Colorado's aviation and brewing communities.
'Member the Good Ole Days will certainly be a first-come, first-served situation. With one keg for the event, you will want to make sure to stop by our booth early!
Wanting to get a taste of the brew but not able to make it to Collab Fest? We will also be featuring it at our Annual Meeting, where you can attend for free. Learn more and register by clicking here.
