Beer, Ciders and Bluegrass in Breckenridge….
…what’s not to LOVE?
Beers and Ciders are some of the most loved beverages in the universe and the route to all things magnificent. Add in some live Bluegrass, delicious food, gorgeous Breckenridge mountain views and great friends…….you have an irresistible recipe for making magic! These indulgences all come together for the Breckenridge Strings, Beers & Ciders Hosted by Rocky Mountain Events, LLC.
Beer and Cider lovers come together to taste their way through a wide array of samples from local and national Craft Breweries while boogying to some great bluegrass music from Blue River Grass all under the majestic mountains of Breckenridge! Guests will receive a commemorative tasting glass, access to the live music, entertainment and festival activities, and a chance to taste and explore their way through an assortment of ciders and sours while learning from the Brewery Ambassadors.
