GABF treat: Bell’s Brewery to briefly distribute to Colorado

Not that the enthusiasts in Colorado don’t have enough craft beer variety, but the Great American Beer Festival (GABF) brings additional treats like this: To coincide with said GABF, Michigan brewing powerhouse Bell’s Brewery will be sending a lineup of beers to Colorado for a short time in September.

Crooked Stave Artisans will temporarily distribute Bell’s beer across its entire distribution footprint including the cities of Denver, Boulder, Fort Collins and Colorado Springs beginning Sept. 21.

“This was a unique opportunity for us to finally be able to bring our beer to Colorado, even though it’s just for a short time,” said Laura Bell, vice president of Bell’s Brewery Inc. “Crooked Stave has been an amazing partner to work with, and we are incredibly grateful to them for taking a project like this on.”

Bottles of Amber Ale, Best Brown Ale, Expedition Stout, Kalamazoo Stout, Midwestern Pale Ale, Oarsman Ale and Two Hearted Ale will be available to purchase. Draft options will include Amber, Oarsman, Two Hearted, Black Note, Bourbon Barrel Aged Expedition Stout, Coffee Mustache, Double Two Hearted Ale, Lavender Saison, Mars DIPA, Raspberry Wild One and The Wild One.
