Do you have a great microbrew? If so, then we would like to invite you to this year’s Fall Festival of Beers in Mt. Crested Butte, Colorado which is scheduled for Saturday, September 11, 2010. This year the Crested Butte/Mt. Crested Butte Chamber of Commerce expects to bring over 1000 beer enthusiasts to the festival.

Participation in the event includes one night of complimentary lodging and an additional night of lodging at a discounted rate so that you may enjoy many of the outdoor activities our community has to offer. Breakfast and lunch on the day of the Festival will also be included in the Brewer’s package.

We request that each brewery bring three kegs (with tapping equipment) for festival-goers to sample. Please indicate on the attached sheet how many kegs you would like us to provide storage for.  We will provide all ice on festival day.

We look forward to your participation in the Festival. Cheers!

Chili Cook-Off

Picture
Think you have the best Chili in Crested Butte? Enter the Chili Cook-Off. Prizes will be awarded to the winners for Best International Chili Society Red Chili (that’s no beans or fillers), Anything Goes (just like the name says, anything goes), Green Chili and Vegetarian Chili (with no meat or meat stock). There will also be a prize for the Best Professional Entry, and for Best Table Decoration.

Entry into the Cook-Off Contest is 
FREE, and cook-off participants also receive FREE entry into the Fall Festival of Beers! Here’s how it works- cook up 3 gallons of your best stuff in advance. We will provide the table, tent, and serving cups (unless you have your own you that would like to bring). All entries must be received by Thursday, September 9th to be included on the ballots and be eligible for prizes. Please note—contestants won’t have access to electricity so gas burning or Coleman type stoves will be necessary.

For more information, contact the Chamber, or download and complete the 
registration form here.
