What is Great American Beer Festival (GABF)?
The Great American Beer Festival is an annual beer festival hosted by the Brewers Association, held in Denver, Colorado and boasts an impressive lineup of over 800 breweries presenting a diverse selection of 4,000 beers. This year it will run from Thursday October 9 – Saturday October 11, 2025 and will be held at the Colorado Convention Center.
Per the Brewers Association “The Great American Beer Festival represents the largest collection of U.S. beer ever served, in the format of a public tasting event plus a privately judged competition. Dubbed by Thrillist as “The One Beer Festival You Must Go to Before You Die,” GABF has topped beer lovers’ bucket lists since 1982 and unites beer lovers and brewers from all corners of the country. Grab your friends and discover your new favorite craft beer, cider, cocktails, hard lemonades, teas, and seltzers!”
