We’re best pals who love to dream of beers we’ve never had. Everytime we get together, good times are had, so we just keep on doing it. This time we wanted a floral table beer to accompany those good times, so we took the classic grissette and bumped it up a notch with dried rose. Everything is coming up roses!

We put our heads and noses together to come up with an IPA where we can borrow from each other's recent experiments. Cerebral has been toying with a touch of malted wheat and rice in their IPAs, while 4 Noses has been experimenting dry-hopping with a Rolec Dry-Hopping system. Both methods are in display in this crisp and bright West Coast IPA. Why didn’t this happen sooner?

The owners of Coal Mine Ave Brewery were customers of Tom’s Brew Shop, so the mechanics at 6 and 40 Brewery wanted to scale up a collaboration to reflect our common homebrew roots. When a brewery and off-leash dog park collaborates with a classic car and 1960s gas station-themed brewery, the only result that makes sense is a super modified hybrid of two styles. We’ve upped the RPMs of a Blonde Stout with all the ingredients of a classic carrot cake: carrot, cinnamon, raisins, vanilla and walnuts. This beer may not be street legal, but it might help you Lose the Leash!

We’ve been buds Michael from Funky Fauna since he brewed with Our Mutual Friend a while back. At FF they brew and enjoy similar styles as us, they just recently opened their doors, brew on a similarly sized tiny system and we thought it sounded fun to put our brains together of a saison.

Greg at the Empourium specializes in crisp, sessionable ales and lagers. Kyle at Barquentine has a ship obsession and focuses on Belgian beers. After several beers were consumed, and hollering the sea shanty The Wellerman, the two combined the brewers' passions and created a session ale that hopes "Soon may the Wellerman come, to bring us sugar and tea and rum." Belgian candi sugar, a tea blend of gunpowder and kusmi, and rum-soaked oak spirals.

Bruz Beers and River North create some of the best Belgian-style beers in the state! Combined, this beer should be killer. This spirited collaboration leads with notes of baking spices and citrus on the nose. Hints of vanilla and toffee from the charred oak barrels complement the freshly baked biscuit and toasty malt finish. A boozy warmth on the tongue enhances the experience and lingers after each sip.

We have always been fans and friends of each other's brewery's and have talked for years about a Collab beer. We just never made it happen until now. Since we are both Lager fans and big fans of Letterkenny we thought it would be fun (and hilarious) to brew a beer that represented a Premium Ice Lager, with a nod to one of our favorite shows! Call to Arms and Joyride Brewing have the same birthday, only 1 year apart (CTA=2015, Joyride=2014, both on July 16th). That connection, combined with our mutual love of the TV show Letterkenny, made us want to make a beer that would have the approval of Wayne, Katie, Darry, and Squirrely Dan.

This is our first collaboration as a new neighbor in the Aurora Arts District, which Lady Justice has called home for almost two years. The goal of this beer was to celebrate the Arts District community, so we consulted with another neighbor, Chef Gonzo of Miette et Chocolat for guidance on cacao nibs. We hope that barrel-aging the nibs before adding them to the stout will yield nuanced layers of oak character.

Nate and I used to work at Sleeping Giant brewing company and the owners of Blue Spruce and Cheluna are good friends outside of the industry. Both Nate and Tom have a love for Belgian beers, and we decided to collaborate with Jasper Yeast Company (which is run by Tom's mentor) to make a Belgian Quad. This beast of a beer has 2 different types of Sugar added, and is brewed with Westvelteran and Rochefort yeast.

This lager was single decocted using Troubadour Maltings Super Pěvec and Antero wheat. We added a mash hop addition of whole cone Czech Saaz hops to hopefully increase the hop flavor and aromatics in the final beer. Our goal is to add a little boost of tea, lemon, and floral characters from the noble hops we use in our Czech style lagers.

Evergreen and El Rancho are co-sponsors for beer at the Evergreen Rodeo. The Collab-Fest batch is a pilot to help dial it in for the summer event. Beer from the second batch will be donated to the Rodeo for sale at the event. It's a clean, crisp, crushable beer for a summer day at the Rodeo, or a mud season afternoon in the spring.

Hideaway Park and Elevation Beer Co. are kindred spirits in our quest for fresh tracks, high water, clean lines, and hero dirt. We both operate in small mountain towns, and embrace all of the joy and struggle that come with it. We have been wanting to collab for a while, but the whole apocalypse thing kinda threw a monkey wrench into plans. Both breweries feature Andy's who love English Mild. We each brewed the same base IPA (A single hop Citra IPA) Elevation used standard pelletized hops, while Hideaway Park used extract, incognito, and spectrum hop products instead of any traditional hop additions.

We decided to collaborate because, well, we'd never done it before! Our friends at Bootstrap Brewing reworked a classic Epic Brewing recipe: Son of a Baptist Stout. We rethought the color and are making a white stout that we hope will look similar to "makgeolli" - a traditional Korean rice wine. Colorado, get ready for Son of a Bootstrap White Stout!

Sparge Brewing has been making some wonderful clean beers since 2018; while clean beers are always a treat to drink, why not spice things up with something a little bit more funky? Our collaboration beer is our way of introducing Sparge to the wild ways of brett, letting them know it is ok to let loose in the brewhouse once in a while. We are reaching out of our comfort zone too - using experimental hop 09326 for the first time to help accentuate brett's fruitier side and lend some tropical notes to this collab concoction.

Being friends with some folks at Great Divide, we decided it would be fun to pursue a different style than both of us specialize in. Neither of us have brewed a Japanese rice lager before so we figured why not push some boundaries and try something new. Its a fairly traditional "rice lager" base fermented with a sake yeast blend and South African hops. The sake yeast lends peach and rose esters to the aroma and an extremely dry finish. But every time we say goodbye, The pain I can't identify, Reveals to me the hidden door, That leads to several moments more

We are good friends with the folks at BKS Artisan Ales. We met at our taproom in Nederland when they were visiting our town on vacation last summer. We stayed in touch and decided to collaborate. A few months later, we flew out to visit them and brew at their location in the Brookside neighborhood of Kansas City. The original beer, "Burnt Ends", was designed to be a collaboration between our collective approaches towards hoppy beer. For Collaboration Fest, we took this idea even further with a slightly increased hopping rate and added "Greens" to the name, with the addition of more varieties of New Zealand hops. This is our heaviest hopping rate yet at about 7 lbs per bbl, built upon an extroadinarily soft grain bill.

Through mutual respect and interests, we got connected and thought we could have some fun. Motivated by a collection of experimental hops we each had at our breweries, we wanted to find a variety of ways to use those hops throughout the brewing and fermentation process.

It once started as a collaboration art project at Wynkoop Brewing many years ago with a portrait of young Danny Wang. As the portrait still hangs today, we continue on the collaboration with Wynkoop, Phantom Canyon, Fermly, and Mirror Image. We will be brewing a familiar flavor reminiscent of our younger years when life was carefree and easy, a fruited malt liquor.

We wanted to bring some of our Wisconsin friends down to Colorado for one of our first brews at our new Denver location. Four collaborated on the recipe which went from beers we had brewed together in the past, to seasonal preferences, to using ingredients grown in Wisconsin. (No we did not use cheese curds in the beer, but we will most definitely be eating some) The result is going to be a nice yeast forward saison brewed with Wisconsin cranberries and orange peel.

As the new kids on the block we thought what better way to get to know our closest neighbors than brew a beer together! In 2020 this same crew (minus us) brewed a limoncello beer but Collab fest was canceled, almost exactly a year later, we brewed a Limoncello beer as part of our crowdsourced program. We both loved the beer concept so much we decided to take the best of both batches and brew it as one of our first Denver brews!

This is the 7th annual (except for last year, stupid pandemic) collaboration between Baere and Mockery. This year we decided to incorporate some elements from collaborations of years past and throw a scorching amount of heat into an otherwise malty, sweet and fruity beer. We will also be consuming record setting hot sauces throughout the brew day, culminating in the brew team taking the infamous One Chip Challenge! Should be fun!?

We share a lot of common values with our friends at Cohesion, but maybe the most important is our drive to pour over every detail of every beer we produce. Our collaboration reflects this value, with every step considered carefully, from water filtration through to extended lagering, every detail is carefully tweaked. Additionally, we worked with our friends at Troubador Malting to create a blend of customized specialty malts, produced to exhibit the exact flavors we wanted for this project. The result is an extremely drinkable, low abv, amber lager tasting of caramel, toasted grain and toffee brewed with while cone saaz and aged hops that add hints of earth and spice.

We’ve been making beers with our friends at Phase 3 for a minute now and we’ve watched as the industry has grown and changed together over the last few years. We’ve seen seemingly every permutation of every possible beer get made, every extreme considered, every stone turned, but yet we still find inspiration to keep riding the wave that brought us here. That’s why we brewed Never Come Down, a beer that explores yet untracked terrain with an elegant blend of carefully selected components. We started by working with our friends at Troubador Malting to create a custom blend of specialty malts, including a super dark crystal we’re calling “crystal 300”, to build a base that we’re calling Stout Wine. Then we blended this with some of our oldest stock of barrel aged stout, brewed together over 2 years ago and matured in spirit barrels. Finally, we finished the beer on sugar maple wood to bring out additional layers of spirit complexity. The result combines our favorite components of stout and barleywine, with bold notes of caramel and toasted grain, subtle chocolate, oak and spirit all combining with a silly mouthfeel thats pleasantly coating on the palate.

The founders and staff of Odyssey Beerwerks and Woods Boss have been friends for several years, and remain very close (lots of hugs). Jordan Fink was a brewer at Odyssey while working to open Woods Boss and, before he left to work on Woods Boss full-time, he brewed a Belgian Quad for Odyssey. The next year Odyssey brewed a similar Quad, dumped it in barrels, and affectionately named it "Woods Monk," to honor Jordan's contribution to the beer and show appreciation for his time with Odyssey. Woods Monk was entered into GABF in 2017 and won a Silver medal. So, we figured we'd up our game for the collaboration this year. A 19% Quad

We are blending mature spontaneous beer from Primitive naturally macerated on whole organic raspberries with young spontaneous beer from Wild Provisions. The resulting blend will be served tranquil (without carbonation) through a beer engine with sparkler at Collaboration Fest. This beer is inspired by our favorite experiences with Cantillon’s raspberry Lambic served at Moeder Lambic in Brussels as well as raspberry Lambic served from the tank at De Cam Geuzestekerij. This beer is special to us because it is the first time Primitive Beer has ever refermented on whole raspberries and is the first release from Wild Provisions’ traditional spontaneous beer program.

The intent is to pour the two side by side, allowing people to experience the difference.

We’ve developed long-standing relationships with our local suppliers here in Colorado, with John and Inland Island being one of those, so it’s always nice to work directly with them on something. We decided to use the TRVE Norwegian strain to ferment the beer, as it’s one that I was able to source and make available stateside with the help of Inland. On top of that, John suggested using some lacto strains that we haven’t used before, and that sounded like an interesting and tasty combination.

To really drive the point home, I also called on our friends at Troubadour Maltings to malt something specifically for this beer. It’s a super funky and acidic Rye. I’ve always wanted to design a beer around a malt that wouldn’t necessarily work unless used in a highly specific way, and with this collaboration we’re able to do that. It should be a nice showcase of the strength of our ingredients and suppliers.
Trve Brewing has been an awesome partner for over five years and is always willing to try new and innovative techniques with our yeast and bacteria.

We were inspired to brew a unique take on a hefeweizen, with a hefty addition of rolled oats and red wheat, as well as a generous helping of novel and experimental hop varieties (Contessa and Talus). Our hopfenweizen has the classic banana and clove character of a traditional hefeweizen with the bold citrus and pomme fruit hop aroma of a hazy IPA.

This beer was brewed using Lucky Cereal Marshmallows in the mash, then we added Little Mans Marsh Madness (Toasted Marshmallow Ice Cream with Lucky Cereal Marshmallows) Ice Cream into the boil. This Ice Cream Stout is sticky sweet and will be conditioned on tons of Vanilla and Marshmallows.

Wibby Brewing and Jack's Abby brewed a smoked maerzen lager together. This lager was brewed using steinbier techniques. The use of hot granite rocks during the brewing adds a caramel complexion to this lager that is only seen with this brewing technique. When 2 of the country's greatest craft lager brewers get together, great lager is made for all.
